TCG1210FA1 Crosswater Thermostatic Cartridge for Temperature Controlled Shower Valves

SUMMARY

Crosswater TCG1210FA1 Thermostatic Cartridge for Kai EV1210EC and EV1211EC

NOTE: There are two generations of this cartridge, one with brass thread and one without. Both are the same model.

The Crosswater TCG1210FA1 is a brass screw-in thermostatic cartridge for earlier versions of the Kai EV1210EC exposed shower valve and EV1211EC bath/shower mixer.

It regulates the mix of hot and cold water to control the outlet temperature. These valves have separate temperature and flow controls, with a different cartridge operating the water flow and shut-off function.

Check Before Ordering

EV1210EC and EV1211EC were produced with more than one thermostatic cartridge design. TCG1210FA2 is used in later versions and should not be assumed to be interchangeable with TCG1210FA1. Compare the existing cartridge, threaded fixing, spindle and temperature-stop arrangement before ordering. The valve model or approximate installation date alone is not enough to identify the correct version.

Fitting and Temperature Adjustment

Isolate the hot and cold water supplies before servicing the valve. Remove the temperature-control handle and use a correctly sized spanner to unscrew the cartridge, following the valve's servicing instructions. Apply a light coating of silicone grease to the cartridge seals during fitting.

If the temperature stop ring is removed, refit it with the stop at the 12 o'clock position. Reassemble the control and check the temperature setting before returning the valve to use.

Temperature and Flow Faults

Poor temperature control or restricted flow can be caused by supply problems, trapped debris or a cartridge fault. Check both water supplies, the filters and the temperature setting before assuming the thermostatic cartridge needs replacing. If the valve runs only hot or only cold immediately after installation, check that the supplies are connected correctly.

If water continues to drip from the shower head or bath spout when the flow control is turned off, inspect the separate CG1210FA1 flow cartridge and its sealing function.
