The first end includes first and second inlet ports, while the second end portion includes an outlet port. The flow-through valve further includes a valve cartridge including a first fixed disk having an opening thereon, a first moveable disk in fluid communication with the first fixed disk, a second fixed disk having an opening thereon and a second moveable disk in fluid communication with the second fixed disk. The fixed disks and moveable disks may be configured within the valve cartridge to independently adjust the hot/cold water flow or the temperature/flow rate.
