Cartridge Identification and Installation Help

NOTE: If your Moen faucet was manufactured after 2009 and you are looking at the 1225 cartridge, it is possible that you may actually have a 1255 cartridge because cartridge styles can vary by the date of manufacture. If you're not quite sure, we'd recommend that you refer to the original documentation that came with your faucet, or feel free to contact us. You can also call us for help at 01-800-718-4345 .
