Question:
Im looking at two shower valves on your site. Theyre both made by Patrick Distribution and theyre identical except one says hybrid. Can you please tell me what that means? Ive never seen that term before. Thank you.

Expert Reply:
I believe the two parts you are referring to are the Patrick Distribution RV Shower Valves part # 277-000025 and part # 277-000027. The first part has a plastic construction while the latter has a hybrid construction.
The term "hybrid" simply means that it has a mixed construction of metal and plastic. This allows it to be a little more sturdy and able to withstand a little more.
Aside from that you are correct that they are exactly the same. Since there is just a slight cot difference I recommend going with the hybrid design so that you know it will last longer.
