Frequently Asked Questions for Spare Part Moda Shower 3UWE640 Thermostatic Cartridge

Question: How will I know if the Moda shower 3UWE640 thermostatic cartridge needs to be replaced?
Answer: Signals you should be aware of that calls for a replacement Moda shower thermostatic cartridge include:

– loud sounds emitting from the valve when it is in use;
– trouble or difficulty adjusting water temperature;
– water temperature can no longer be adjusted;
– permanent fluctuation of water temperature when using the shower;
– water leaks from the temperature control handle;
– and stiff to turn temperature control handle.

The biggest contributing factor that is damaging to the shower valve and the Moda shower thermostatic cartridge 3UWE640 is calcified limescale, aside from wear and tear. A new Moda shower 3UWE640 thermostatic cartridge, most of the time, can resolve such problems.

Question: How can I know if this Moda shower thermostatic cartridge is the right replacement part for the shower I have to fix?
Answer: You can send us a message using our Find a Part free service. Also, send us a photo of the shower valve or of the cartridge that needs to be replaced. We will determine if this Moda shower thermostatic cartridge, or a different cartridge, is the part you need. (Messages received during the weekend will be responded to on Monday.)

Question: The shower water flow rate is very weak. Is the Moda shower thermostatic cartridge the culprit?
Abswer: It could be because the filter gauzing of the thermostatic cartridge is blocked by dirt and other hard water residues. It can restrict water flow if it is blocked.

But it is worthwhile checking if the blockage is in the shower valve rather than the cartridge. Take out the cartridge and slowly open water supplies to flush out the debris. After flushing the valve and the flow rate is still weak then this replacement thermostatic cartridge for Moda showers might be the answer.

Question: How can the Moda shower thermostatic cartridge be removed?
Answer: There is a retaining nut holding the Moda shower 3UWE640 thermostatic cartridge in the valve. You can use a screwdriver or any flat tool against the slots in the nut and turn it to remove the retaining nut. Be careful that you don’t force it too much to prevent it from breaking.

When the cartridge retaining nut gets too tough to remove, use WD-40 or other loosening agents. Let it soak for a few hours to overnight and try again. When it still won’t budge, you can try using a hairdryer in the hottest setting and point it on the Moda shower thermostatic cartridge nut. Hopefully, the heat will expand the nut and cause the calcification to loosen.
