    Delta diverter cartridge doesn't fit

    i don't know what its supposed to be. Delta couldn't tell me what the cartridge diameter or hole diameter are SUPPOSED to be so i couldn't tell which part was actually defective. i'll have new parts in a few days so i can figure out which parts are good.

    Delta diverter cartridge doesn't fit

    after a couple hours on the phone with delta, i finally have them sending me a new diverter cartridge to try. Unfortunately, i'm in a remote location with no access to any of these parts in stores. I'm wondering if anyone on this forum happens to have a diverter cartridge that they can take an...

    Shower to tub conversion

    I did that in my house because we needed a tub for the little kids. i think the only tricky part was getting the drain located right because the shower i took out was a center drain.

    Delta diverter cartridge doesn't fit

    about 1/8" of this cartridge goes into the top hole on the valve body. it has a pin that has to go in for alignment. In my case, i can't even get the cartridge to start in far enough to get the pin to line up. I'm thinking I'll need delta to replace the cartridge, planning to call them tomorrow.

    Delta diverter cartridge doesn't fit

    I purchased a r22000 rough-in valve and a T27959 trim which comes with a 6 setting diverter cartridge. First thing that seemed weird was, i tried to test for leaks after install and the test caps (plastic cylinder with an O-ring) leaked pretty badly. Both the mixing valve and the diverter...

    Under window kitchen sink vent

    do you think AAV is as good as the island vent config? I thought there were still a lot of people who hate AAV's for some reason or another. BTW, do the rest of my pipes look ok? I think they are pretty simple but i would still like to ask! no inspector for this job. just a DIY remodel out...

    Under window kitchen sink vent

    does this look ok? the kitchen sink is under a window on a load bearing wall so I can really only go down to the crawlspace with the pipes. fortunately, the main drain line is located close to the ground level in the crawlspace so i have about 3' to play with between the floor and the drain...
