Thermostatic cartridges. One of the many useful and practical inventions. These small shower valve parts – like the Narva Infinity shower thermostatic cartridge – controls the adjustment of water temperature in accordance with your set preference.
Water enters the two gauze filters of the cartridge and a thermo-core does its work. A piston inside the cartridge pushes up when hot water skims its surface and retracts when it feels cold water. This is the mechanism that allows the shower thermostatic cartridge for Narva Infinity to mix both hot and cold water to the temperature of your liking.
Many bar valves technically look the same – a horizontal bar. At the same time, many cartridges also look the same as the Narva Infinity shower thermostatic cartridge but the measurements differ. If you are sure that the shower you have to fix is a Narva Infinity then this thermostatic cartridge will 100% fit in the valve and resolve any cartridge-related issues.
If you are not very sure that the shower bar valve is a Narva Infinity, the primary consideration that you need to know is the measurements of the thermostatic cartridge you hold with you. You can approximate the measurements given above with that of your cartridge.
Another thing to consider is the year the valve was manufactured. Sometimes manufacturers change the valve parts for the same shower model.
Shower bar valves are equipped with two cartridges; one that controls the temperature (thermostatic cartridge) and the other controls water flow (flow cartridges).
Poor water flow rate or a dripping shower head can often be because of the Narva Infinity shower thermostatic cartridge and rarely due to the flow cartridge. The reason for this is that hot water can convert hard water minerals into insoluble carbonates. Hot water can also dry out faster than cold which gradually causes minerals and dirt to build up in the shower thermostatic cartridge.
That being said, it is important to check if the faulty cartridge is the flow cartridge or the shower thermostatic cartridge.
