The shower is leaking in our bathroom and I know we need a new cartridge but the problem is that we can’t identify the brand. The only marks are a K41 on the green water pressure balance unit and a “M” on the cartridge (or what I would think is the cartridge). We’re just stuck and now sure how to proceed. enter image description here

M stands for Moen– asinineJan 21 at 4:25

I thought that as well but I cannot find anything remotely close to looking like the pics I shared 😞– Heather LuekenJan 21 at 4:29

The only thing I found matching K41 and shower theres no access to. Perhaps you can send them a message. In the terminology here, it would probably be called a mixer rather than a tap/faucet.– Rohit GuptaJan 21 at 5:07

Showing a picture of the trim, i.e., handle(s) and face plate, will likely help others identify. Also, there are often maker's marks on the trim pieces.– Jimmy Fix-itJan 21 at 15:58

Whether M means Moen or not (I'm not convinced), get your parts to a real plumbing supply store and find the oldest guy behind the counter to ask.– Aloysius DefenestrateJan 21 at 20:33

The Moen website helps with: "How to identify which cartridge your Moen one, two or three handle bathroom tub and/or shower uses by handle operation and color images of the various cartridges."
