My moen positemp is the basic type that you have to cycle past the cold to engage the hot which has no flow control.
If you move it into position fast it works fine , but its full tilt bogey or nothing.

For economy I set my water tank at a hot temperature that does not require the addition of cold water to make it bearable , so I crank it all the way open fast to skip past the cold water , which does have flow control, but who needs flow control with the first stage cold water.


Your Moentrol valve sounds much nicer to use the Positemp valve.
