Gerber Shower Cartridge Replacement

- This Gerber shower cartridge replacement video is not a step-by-step tutorial, rather a short look into my everyday activities. Not too many Gerber shower body's in my service area so I ordered the O.E.M. parts.
What looked like a cut and dry cartridge swap, turned into a nail biter because I could not back out the screw holding the handle onto the cartridge. When I finally did remove it, the handle wouldn't come off.
After some gentle persuasion, I managed to remove it. The moral to the story, have some extra screws and maybe an extra handle if you're going to attempt a Gerber shower cartridge replacement. Thanks once again for stopping by, hope you enjoy the video!
Regards & Happy Plumbing!
Bob.

Bob, step-by-step videos are always useful for everyone when you have a chance! Thanks for sharing.
Lots of people get confused thinking that is a one piece cartridge. So very good information
Yes, a step by step video would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! Keep up the excellent work!
Thank you sooooo much for the education. As far as myself, no way . This is a job for Mr. Bob….just a voice from the past . The Angry Signman of Bay Ridge
Great video, from a voice from the past. The Retired Angry Signman of Bay Ridge ….Job well done my old, old friend 👌🏽👀
Thanks for the vid Bob! You’re right, it never goes as expected. 👍👍
high end of the high-end plumbing fixtures, is what i remember about Gerber products, again like yourself i havent seen more than one job where a Gerber's valve was part of the installation...it was a very high-end type remodel, anyway txs for sharing
wow bob great job! i never seen that cartridge or shower valve before either. I work in new york also. very very nice!!!
i dont think ive seen any gerber single handle shower valves out here in cali. Thanks for the video
Bob, thanks its useful information !
Nice show. Thanks for the video.
Good work sir
Gerber is very low end plumbing product, throughout the years change out so many three valve showerbody, and two handle faucets to better quality brand.
Please post how to remove the handle. How to determine if there are leaks due to pipe cracks inside the wall?
Again good thinking.
Thank you, this was really helpful. Please make a step by step video, for this cartridge replacement.
Will do
I remember back about 25 years (+,-,? I was still self employed) Gerber had a marketing campaign aimed at industry professionals, the hook being they only dealt with suppliers and contractors, never big-box stores. I liked this idea so I tried to use their products whenever I could. Always found them to be well made. Lacking in style somewhat, but generally a good product. I dont know if that strategy ever paid off for them. If you rarely see Gerber products in the field now, Im guessing no. Anyway, enjoyed the video as always
Always used their kitchen faucets and center set faucets back in the day. Solid brass build, but as you said lacking style.
I'm at the stage of removing the cap nut. In the video it looks like it slides directly onto the control stem of the cartridge. Did you just pull straight back or unscrew it? Also, at what point does the water need to be shut off? Thanks for the video and tips!
The chrome sleeve slides off, but the brass cap nut must be unscrewed. Grab the two flats with a crescent wrench or Channel lock pliers
Thanks,for sharing, could you please tel me how you removed the arm from the base?
Thanks
I'm sorry, when you say arm do you mean the handle?
Hello, Bob! Great Video and you are a fantastic host. You speak well and articulate very clearly. You were right about the crew, I managed to get it out, but I have a problem with the handle. I cannot pull it out. Do I have to twist it clockwise? How did you do it?
No, it's just fused on, maybe some penetrating spray, handle puller? If not try to loosen the collar that holds the cartridge in and back it off, forcing the handle off?
@@BobsPlumbingVideosI am looking at your Amazon Tools. Which handle puller would you recommend for this Gerber handle?
Thank you for the info, it was really helpful. Will you be posting a video on how to remove a very stuck handle I have the exact same problem I don’t want to damage anything?
If I get a hold of a Gerber Shower Body, I'll do a bench top demo of how I would approach it. Thanks! Bob.

That would be great Bob! We DIY guys don't do this every day so to have a step-by-step video saved would be very helpful. I changed my cartridge couple of times and my biggest problem was getting it back in correctly.
Hi
I have an exact problem. The plumber was unable to remove the handle. Where have you sourced Gerber parts? Thank you so much.
Supplyhouse.com..bit.ly/3Fyyp48. Check your specific model!
Wouldn't there now be mold growing now between the walls due to the water dripping in between the walls?
More than likely!
Thanks for the video!

Stay safe.
Retired (werk'n)keyboard super tech. Wear your safety glasses!
Any idea where I can find a new handle? Mine got ruined.
Also this cartridge works backwards of my original 🤦🏼♂️
Check out this link - bit.ly/3YFCcE9. All things equal if you used a brand new O.E.M. cartridge, no reason for it being backwards.
How long will the grease last on the rubber parts?
Genuine stem grease has a long life, however may dissipate more on the hot side.
I removed my tub bcuz it was leaking from underneath the tub, turns out to be that the cast iron was completely broken from the drain,how can I put a adapter or something to the broken cast iron to the shower drain base
Send me some photos . info@robertsessaplumbing.com.
My water is set at 127 degrees but I need a whole tank full of hot water to shampoo my hair everyday
Replace everything it’s so corroded and filthy
