GROHE Pressure Balance Valve Trim, Chrome
German Engineering. StarLight Chrome. $70.00.
Hi, I'm Chad. When you are renovating a bathroom, the fixtures you touch every day—like the shower handle—matter the most. Cheap handles feel loose and rattle; GROHE feels like a bank vault door. It is smooth, precise, and heavy. This Pressure Balance Valve Trim features the famous StarLight Chrome finish, which stays mirror-bright for decades because it resists scratches and tarnishing better than almost any other chrome on the market.
Transparency Check: I hunt for surplus renovation materials to save you money. This trim kit is 100% Brand New and Unused. However, the outer cardboard box might have some shelf wear or a crushed corner. You get the pristine, luxury hardware for your Bathroom upgrade, but you don't pay the luxury showroom price. Important Note: This is the TRIM KIT only. You must have the corresponding valve installed in your wall.
How Pressure Balancing Prevents "Shower Shock"
We have all been there: someone flushes the toilet, and the shower water instantly turns scalding hot or freezing cold. This Pressure Balance system monitors the hot and cold water pressure. If one drops (like the cold water during a flush), the valve automatically throttles the other side to keep your temperature safe and steady within ±3°F.

Double Ceramic Technology
Advanced valve trims utilize ceramic disc cartridges instead of rubber washers. Ceramic is harder than steel and nearly diamond-like in durability.
This technology prevents the friction that causes wear and tear, ensuring the handle remains smooth and drip-free even after years of daily use in your Home Essentials.
Installation Note
- Required: This is a Trim Kit. It requires a compatible GrohSafe Pressure Balance Rough-In Valve (not included) already installed in the wall.
- Skill Level: If the valve is already in the wall, installation is simple (Intermediate DIY). If the valve needs to be plumbed in, professional installation is recommended.
