I need help with how to replace our old chrome shower components with new ones in a brushed nickel. Can you ID the pieces and give me advice on what will work with the existing plumbing? So far, I have not seen any Delta Monitor trims with a nickel finish.

This is a 20 year old system. Our showers are working fine but can they be expected to last? Would it make more sense to invest in new Kohler products that come with a lifetime guarantee?

1. The shower handles are Delta Monitor but I need to know what series and what replacements to look at.
2. The shower heads are Speakman but, are they attached to a standard size stem/pipe?
3. The grab handle has a Grohe logo on it and I don't know what brand the hand-held shower head is.

I would appreciate any feedback that you can give me. Thank you!

It is the old 1500 series, they did make an update retrofit to let it use modern components, but not sure if it is still available. Call Delta to find out. Delta has a "brilliance stainless" finish.
