1225 Cartridge: Kitchen Faucet
The 1225 is a water flow cartridge built in directly below the faucet handle and controls both volume and temperature. It
is commonly used in Moen single handle faucets produced prior to 2009 (date varies based on style and model).
Preparation:
• The water supply shut off valves must be turned off- see article How to Turn Off the Water Supply to the
Faucet.
• Recommended Tools: Pliers
• The following instructions assume the handle and associated handle pieces have been removed. For additional
details, visit solutions.moen.com and select the type you are repairing. The faucet guide will contain specific
information on handle assemblies associated with that style of product.
Moen manufactures many types of faucets that use the 1225 cartridge. The different faucet categories are based on
where the on/off handle is located. Refer to the images below based on your handle location.
