We have two dripping faucets in our showers, but don't know what the brand name is to order a replacement part. The only markings I can find on the faucets are shown in the two pictures below. If anyone knows the brand name, I'd sure appreciate hearing back. Thank you.

Moen Positemp. Call 1-800-BUY-MOEN to get replacement cartridges.

Thank you for the brand name. As you can tell, I'm not a plumber by any means, so how do I tell which model number to order a replacement seal cartridge (?) for or are they all the same?

All "positemps" are the same.

HJ, what makes you say Moen? You've seen WAY more than I have, but I've never seen a basic style Moen escutcheon that didn't say "Moen" and had the red/blue markings like that.

In this case the escutcheon is immaterial, although most do NOT have Moen on them anymore. The Moen handle is so distinctive that there is no way to mistake it.

Do the letters on the second picture of the escutcheon mean anything? I just want to be real sure I'm ordering the right item before spending the money on (3) repair parts. Thanks for your continued help.

Trim can be similar on multiple faucets, but Hj is generally right. If you want to be sure, shut off the water, remove the handle, and remove the cartridge so it can be identified directly. If this is a Moen, you shouldn't need to buy anything if you just contact them for the repair parts.
