We have the cartridge in a faucet built of very loud water noise caused. We did not know what it was, but it was worth a try. And see, or rather hear, our faucet caused no loud disturbing noises more. Installation is also very easy. The cartridge should actually fit in each faucet, in which a Ø40 cartridge is installed. Today these are all standard parts. Who needs help at Youtube there are several installation guides. Strong buy recommendation!
