Ontario is in Malheur County, Oregon. Its ZIP code is 97914. We route shower valve replacement calls from 97914.
Why the temperature swings
A valve that is not pressure-balanced sees the cold side drop when something else draws cold water, and the mix at the head follows it. That is the fault anti-scald valves were introduced to remove.
What points to the body rather than the trim
Water appearing inside the wall, in a ceiling below, or a handle that turns without changing anything, all point past the trim. None of them are fixed by a new escutcheon.
