Victorian Plumbing CARTT8562 Thermostatic Cartridge for Chatsworth and Arezzo Shower Valves
The Victorian Plumbing CARTT8562 is a thermostatic cartridge for selected Chatsworth and Arezzo concealed shower valves. It controls the mixed water temperature in the shower valve and is positioned behind the central temperature control on the valve body.
This cartridge is used where the temperature control cartridge is worn, scaled or no longer regulating correctly. Before ordering, visually compare the existing cartridge with CARTT8562, including the body shape, spline count, height and diameter, as variations can exist between similar looking Chatsworth and Arezzo valves.

Installation and Checking Notes
Isolate the water supply before removing the valve trim and cartridge assembly. On the triple concealed valve, the red markings on the stop rings and cartridge should be aligned when refitting so the valve returns to the approximate 38 degrees C setting. If the shower only runs hot or cold after installation, check that the hot and cold supplies have not been reversed and that the cartridge has been installed in the correct orientation.
Troubleshooting
- - Symptom: shower runs hot or cold after installation. Likely Cause: hot and cold supplies reversed or faulty thermostat. Solution: check supply orientation and cartridge condition.
- - Symptom: shower does not run hot enough. Likely Cause: hot water temperature or temperature adjustment issue. Solution: check the hot supply and recalibrate the stop ring position if required.
- - Symptom: low or no flow. Likely Cause: blockage, incorrect operating conditions or pressure imbalance. Solution: check filters, supplies and pressure before replacing the temperature cartridge.
- - Symptom: leaking when the valve is off. Likely Cause: debris in the flow control cartridge or faulty flow control cartridge. Solution: inspect the flow cartridge rather than assuming the thermostatic cartridge is the cause.
