I live in a condo that was built in 1995 and this is the original bath valve. The faucet has an intermittent drip so I am wondering if replacing the cartridge will fix it. I just replaced the faucet because the diverter broke and had my fingers crossed that it might miraculously stop the drip but it did not. So a couple of questions...

Is this a 1500 Series or ... ?

What is the part number for the cartridge?

Does the main water need to be shut off to remove/replace the valve? There is no shut off in my suite so would need to have the building shut off the water to the stack.

I have no plumbing experience so is this a job that I easily do? I was hoping I don't need to hire a plumber for the $150+ that they would charge.

Appreciate any help.

Thanks, Carol

It is a model 1500, Call Delta 1-800-345-DELT to get the right cartridge for that one. It is NOT the same one as the current 1700 uses.
