Installation: Screw-In
Material: Brass


This brass thermostatic cartridge spare part has two gauzings and four outer o-rings. The original spare part is the HANS-94282000. It can fit in a Hansgrohe concealed or exposed shower mixer valve.

Bath taps that manifest problems in temperature regulation, poor water flow due to extreme limescale accumulation, leaks emerging from a deteriorated cartridge are signs that the cartridge requires a new replacement. Delaying the repair may worsen the problem.

The general process for replacing the cartridge for an exposed shower unit involves removing the control handle and the temperature stop ring. If there are other parts resting on top of the cartridge it should also be removed. Once the top of the cartridge can be seen, screw the cartridge out by gripping a spanner on its hex nut. (The Hansgrohe 94282000 has threads on its body securing the cartridge in place.)

Cover the o-rings of the new cartridge with a thin layer of plumber’s silicone grease. Position it in the shower valve and tighten using a spanner. Proceed then to reconstruct the valve control handle.

For concealed shower valves: remove the handles, retaining rings and the cover plate to access the cartridge.

Frequently Asked Questions: Hansgrohe 94282000 Compatible Thermostatic Cartridge

Question: What are the signs of thermostatic cartridge failure?
Answer: There must be steady temperature and consistent water flow for the duration of a shower. Once the temperature starts to fluctuate or water flow slows down, it is an indication there is something wrong with the thermostatic cartridge.

Hard water sediments contribute to the quickening deterioration of a cartridge. It clogs the inlet and outlet water ports obstructing water flow. The temperature receptive capsule housed in the cartridge can also be affected by the blockage.

Question: Ways to remove a stuck cartridge?
Answer: In some cases, calcification of sediment occurs and a cartridge can get stuck in the valve. When lightly tapping the sides of the valve where the cartridge sits is of little help, remedying the situation calls for the use of a valve puller or spraying the valve with WD-40.

Question: What are the compatible shower units for the Hansgrohe 94282000 compatible cartridge?
Answer: Hansgrohe 94282000 compatible cartirgde will fit a wide range of Hansgrohe made shower valve lines Axor, Temple, Prestige, Raindance, Ecostat, and Aquafun.

Question: One shower is not running hot enough water but all other showers in the house do not have the same problem. What could be the cause?
Answer: If other outlets in your home are running normal, then the cartridge of that particular shower has failed.

How does the Hansgrohe 94282000 Thermostatic Cartridge Work

Water is maintained at temperatures around 60℃ (140℉) and 65℃ (149℉) stored in a hot water cylinder while cold water is kept at 10℃ (50℉) and 15℃ (59℉). Keeping water in these temperatures prevents Legionella bacteria from thriving. The Hansgrohe 94282000 thermostatic cartridge plays a fundamental and integral function in delivering a water temperature suitable for bathing.

Within the barrel of thermostatic cartridges, such as the Hansgrohe 94282000, is a wax thermostatic element. It transmutes heat energy into mechanical energy as hot and cold water skims the surface of the temperature-sensitive capsule. The wax and copper confined in the capsules melt and expand as a response to the intensity of water temperature – cold and hot.

A tepid 38℃ (100.4℉) is yielded when cold and hot water is mixed in equal proportions. Thermostatic cartridges can manipulate outbound water temperature by +/-2℃ or +/-1℃.
