Oh man this is a special video.. Exactly what i need.. Now i know which cartridge i have to buy before i start working on my Delta.. I subscribe.. Very info video
If i send a pic of my faucet can you tell me what cartridge id need?
Thank you for your video. I couldn't even begin to fix my leak until I found out what kind of assembly I have first, and I was able to find out through your video. Just to let everyone know, I had a little drip leak out of my tub spout and called a plumber out to give me an estimate. He didn't turn the water off, and open it up to see anything, but just looked and told me he had to replace the cartridge and it would cost $275.00. I thought that sounded outrageous, so I again turned to youtube. I am an older lady with arthritis, so if I can do this, anyone can! I watched this video, and found out I don't even have a cartridge in my set-up! I have the first one, the one with a ball and little spring and rubber do-dad. I found the spring and rubber set on amazon for around 5 bucks. Today, I turned my water off and started to open it up and used pliers to grab the old rubber and spring out and inserted the new ones and put everything back on. Ty so much!
Very cool.
My house was built in 1970. I had no idea where to start. Delta website didn't go back that far. Thank you for explaining and telling exactly what I need. Beyond awesome!!!
Great video! Exactly what I have been looking for to explain the various Delta shower faucets. And thanks for the part numbers!
Plumbing Pro, Thank you for showing us the different cartridges, answered a lot of questions, I had about my Shower set up
I will probably not ever watch one of these videos again. But this alone deserves a like and a sub. You are doing Gods work. TY soooo much. 🙏✌
This was really helpful! We had a leaky shower that was getting worse and we were to identify the correct parts and make the repair. Deeply appreciated!
Thanks for doing this. Concise, informative, excellent. You saved me a lot of time and heartache!
Fantastic video-huge help on determining what Delta system we had. Thank you!!
Huge THANK YOU my friend. You saved the day for me in my hunt for the right cartridge. I just checked the model I bought at the HD and luckily I picked out the right one. I plan to tackle this job tomorrow to stop the leak. I have a stuck set screw that is causing me huge bung hole pains though. I hope I don't end up having to bore it out and needing a new handle!
Thank you.! Very great rundown on all the different types of Delta cartridges. I was able to run to town and grab what I needed without shutting down my main supply. Great video and explanations.
Fantastic comprehensive demonstration on Delta faucets, keep up the great work!
Some good info but you should talk about the pot-metal handles secured by an allen screw that won't come out. Also, on those round "nuts" that hold the cartridge in, a rubber strap wrench works wonders! If you try grabbing it with pliers/Channel Locks, it ovals and holds that much tighter. I also apply a little grease (Lithium works fine) to the threads. That will help insure that the nut comes off easily.
Helpful video. This cleared up things that the Delta video should have covered better. Now I know I don't have to look for a "seat & spring" kit as it is already inside the cartridge that I need.
AMEN for this video. My house was built in '99 and Delta's website does not have my shower handle even listed. LIFE SAVER!
This was such a great video and so helpful for a single elderly woman, I think if I get correct parts I can repair my leaking faucets. Thanks for posting this wonderful video.
This video helped me buy exactly what I needed and fix the faucet on the first try.
awesome thanks for watching
Whaaa-Hoooo!!! Thanks guys!! Lifted a major burden off my mind! Especially the pressure balanced part- couldn’t figure out why I couldn’t get any water out of the spigot with only the cold side hooked up, now I know! And I likely won’t have to replace anything, just get the hot side going! 😀😀 BIG thanks!
Thank you sir for you & your absol' invaluable video; You made parts buying a breeze for me here recently &-
This is one of the best vids ever to hit YT... Because of its usefulness...
Thank you a million times over again‼️
Incredibly esoteric, exactly what I was searching for. I think Cristobal beat me to the punchline - this is a special video - and we love it.
Excellent! No nonsense technical info. Nice job!
OH wow!!!! What a blessing!!!
I have a delta valve system in a standup shower in a 20 year old home that we bought 3 years ago... we are in love with the home and property. I notice I had a continual leak was coming from the Control valve through the shower head, instead of cutting into the Sheetrock, I decided to do all the replacement work through the hole in the shower wall. I grinded all the Pex rings off, and pulled the old valve out-and replacement with the new. I bought a regular plunger to install in the new valve. But I didn’t know they have changed to a new plunger with longer legs to fit the deeper valve.. !!!!!!!
What this video did for me was highlight the part number of the part that I needed to replace the shorter leg plunger...Thank you for a simple idea to include part numbers, with that,, I went to Lowe’s and picked it right up... I only had some much time to fixed this. And you saved me a bunch of wasted time!!!!!!! Thank You Jesus that I watched your instructional,, it’s exactly what I needed,
Thanks Rusty
Great video, explained exactly what I needed to know to get my Delta shower cartridge replaced.
Thank you so much for taking the time to make and post this video. It gave me the confidence to go ahead and tackle old leaky shower faucet. Seems 99% of faucets in my house are Delta, so other cartridge info is a big bonus for me. Thanks again.
Appreciate this! I was trying to figure out how to know which cartridge I needed, the pre-2006 or post-2006, and come to find out I DON'T need a cartridge, I need the Delta ball that you described. Thank you for your great description of how to tell which I needed! Do you feel it's pretty easy to change that for a novice?
Very informative video! Thanks for posting.
Dude this is a great video! on the Delta Nuts though when they freeze on there your best bet is spraying them with some CLR or that WD 40 rust/corrosion release stuff and then using a strap wrench ive been able to get every single one off using that method without having to cut them and we have terrible hard water with chloramines in it out here in southern California. Very informative video though man keep it up!
You should make a video showing how to do that. Would really help alot of people.
One of the issues is people using channel locks on them. They end up egging the ring and then it’s a bitch to get off. Try spinning it with your hand and a rag to grip it with. If you use channel locks dont grip it real tight. Easy does it is best. If it fails cut it off.
My house was built in 1995, it has a Delta shower faucet system using the ball the old type of system. Now I know what to buy, thank you.
This was exactly the video I needed, thanks 😊
Thanks for info, this helped me find exactly what I needed!
Thank you for the discrimination of the rp19804. Old verses new. Colors being different. Helped a lot
Thanks. Your information/ demonstration saved me a costly call to the plumber. Outstanding info video
thank you for this video! so helpful in figuring out how to fix my shower. thank you!!
This is a great video; thanks for making it. You made this effort so much easier to understand for a DIY guy like myself. I can move forward with the repairs now with more confidence.
First rate demo. Thank you!
This is a excellent video. I`m subbing, thank you.
Great video! Thank you very much was a big help!!!
Extremely helpful. Thanks!!
Very helpful! Thank you!
Thanks for this video. I have that ball style. Helpful.
I found this so useful and informational. Thanks!
That was a huge help with a problem I have right now. Thanks so much. Liked and subscribed
Fantastic video!
Perfect!! Thank you!
Great thourough Vid!
Thanks Chief!
Thanks, man! Super helpful.
Thanks for the info!
Great instructional video. Question. If we have the old (first) model you showed...can it be upgraded /replaced with a newer model. Presumably, a professional plumber could be engaged to swap one out for the other?
That was great man thanks!
Thank you very much for this excellent video, I have problem with stuck nut I can't move it , for delta tow hands faucet ,
Excellent! Thanks very much. All companies should make videos like this on their own products. It should be taught as Public Relations 101.
Thank you for the kind words.
Thank you, great information!
Well done, very helpful! Thank you.
thanks for all the info . thanks
I agree with a previous comment you received..."You are doing God's work!" (And you probably didn't even know it...lol). Thank you for your informative video sir🙏 As a landlord for the past 25 years with numerous Delta faucets in units and trying to keep track of it all, this video has been SUCH A BLESSING! You rock brother!
Excellent video! Thank you.
Very well explained, this video answered alot of my questions. Thank you
Thanks, very well done.
Thanks!! Replacing ours from 1998 been super reliable.
This is very helpful, just wondering if you have a video tutorial changing dual handle to a single?
Good info ... enjoyed video!
Very good explanation
Thanks for your time and dedication to help people.
Excellent video. Thanks.
Had no idea the delta cartridge comes apart but twisting it. Gotta try this on the broken one I have. Thanks
Very informative and helpful. I wish there was more content out there like this for us DIYers.
Only thing to suggest would be to grab the up close shots of your pieces (if you have more content showing detail shots) separately and drop them into the video. This would require video editing software to ome degree, not sure if that is practical. The problem is your lighting is great for your dialog shot but is totally blowing out the details on the pieces being so close to the light. You can make out the details you are describing but only barely.
Very helpful!
You video was very accurate.
I like your videos. You have me thinking hard about the pro press
So glad you made this video, I had no idea how to begin to find out what shower cartridge I was dealing with. Thanks so much!
thanks -- great video
Very good information thanks a loy
ohhhhh yeah this is a very helpful video.. Exactly what I need it right Now ,I know which cartridge I have to buy before I start working on mine, thanks Bud :)
Great video to watch before I start my bathroom project. Only question I have is are all manufacturers compatible with each other, I currently have an older peerless model which looks like its the one with the blue valve body so what has to happen in order for me to say id like to put in a new Moen system? Hope I dont need a new rough in valve..... 😔
Big thanks form Maiu.
Thanks this was a great video to help me identify what carriage I will need for my delta shower. I don't have the leaking that most videos I have seen are referring to what I have is the hot water doesn't last very long but I will have hot water at all the other faucets in the house. Im using my automotive background and assuming that the spring on the hot side is weak and just gets over run by the cold be water. From what you have mentioned in the video I have the 1700 series.
amzn.to/340Nqf6. Here's the cartridge, if there's a lack of hit water the cartridge must be replaced due to the pressure balance portion failing.
Is there any sort of upgrade cartridge for the old style ball and seal without replacing the whole faucet? Something to get rid of the old metal ball setup. I have had trouble with drips even after replacing the ball and seals. I have used the Delta RP44123 kit and aftermarket kits. Still no problems with mineral buildup even on a 50 year old faucet. Good video.
Very informative thank you. I will check out the website
Thank you, let us know if we can help
Thank You.
Great video
This is an awesome video. I struggled to find Delta parts at Home Depot last night. I wonder when the time comes, is it easy to replace the old bath faucet with a brand new one all together, with a small hole behind the circulate plate? Thank you.
So I bought a new delta shower system at Lowe’s to replace the old system and as you know, the valve cartridge’s are different! Of course they are!! Is my only option to replace the main brass valve body in the wall or try to find a shower system that uses the same cartridge? The current cartridge looks to be like the last in your video and seems to be a shallow mount? The new cartridge is like that longer version you showed with the two distinct sides of hot and cold… house was built in the 2009 and this is the original. Thanks so much for the guidance!
The best….
Thanks!! By far the best explanation and description
of Delta Cartridges.. Delta should put a little something extra in your envelope this month...lol
Thank you
Thank You
My shower cartridge is a Delta with a dual handle (back and front stocky handle). The problem is that it's difficult to turn the water on and off. The plumber installed the entire shower faucet about 4 years ago (2015). What cartridge can I have?
I've recently started experiencing water hammer at the shower when I turn off a faucet in another part of the house. I've tried all the methods to eliminate water from the hammer arrestors but the hammering keeps coming back. I've seen another video where the source of the hammering ended up being a bad shower valve. Should that be my next step to try to eliminate the hammering?
That’s the video I needed! Could you please indicate the part numbers of the first (oldest) valve (the ball with rubber and springs)? Thank you so much!
At 8:40 you need to note that the blue one is wider also. I ran in to that problem with replacing the blue cartridge.
I just replaced one of these today. If the round nut holding your valve in place won't come loose here are the methods I tried.
1. WD-40 or LIthium Grease.
2. Two pipe wrenches, didn't budge.
3. Filed a slot in the top of the nut for my flat-head screwdriver to fit and attempt to tap loose with my hammer, didn't budge.
4. I learned calcium builds ups inside the nut. I took my hammer and lightly tapped around the entirety of the nut a handful of times to attempt to break up the calcium deposits.
5. Tried with the pipe wrench a few more times, it finally budged and loosened up.
When you go your local hardware store with your existing valve to match up for a new one ensure you also purchase Plumber's Grease. You will coat the O-rings of your new valve with the Plumbers Grease to slide into the fitting easy. Without the Plumber's Grease I could not seat my new valve completely into the fitting.
Good luck!
Thanks for the video. I changed the delta valve cartridge but still there is leaking from the showerhead. Do you have any recommendations for what to do in this case? See 5:30 minutes.
Thanks for sharing your plumbing parts expertise!
Now I know I have a 1500 or 1700 series cartridge, and I just need to figure out how to get the handle off.
Surely there's a video somewhere to help with that...
In exchange, I'll offer a production tip:
When you want to show us a close-up view, hold the part in one hand, and hold your other hand up flat to the camera, close behind the part.
Sorta like you're directing traffic, telling the viewer STOP!
The camera's auto-focus and auto-exposure will adjust themselves to your flat hand, which is about right for the part, instead of to your face.
If the part's too big to use your hand as a backdrop, find a stiff flat neutral color medium-dark matte (not shiny) thing to hold behind it.
The recycled cardboard back of a legal pad should be about right, but you can use almost anything to give the camera a backdrop.
Awesome thanks for the tip 👍
Thanks for the great video on explaining the different types of Delta cartridges. I do believe I have a Delta Monitor 1200 series shower faucet - I am not sure. The only thing I'm sure about is that it has the "Delta Monitor" imprinted on the escutcheon cover plate. The other thing that is for certain is that the faucet is likely made in 1997-1998. I had the cartridge replaced once more than 10 years ago when I called up Delta to get the replacement cartridge. They told me that the original one was discontinued and sent me an updated one, which worked and still works to this day without any issues. Anyway, my question is that I want to replace that clear plastic knob with a chrome metal lever handle. Is this possible without changing any of the faucet internals? It seems like with the ball valves, pretty much everything needs to be swapped out with the RP54870 kit. From your video, it looks like I can just get a chrome Delta lever handle that has the 2 flat sides and it should work. Or is there specific ones I need? Also for future reference on my old Delta Monitor shower faucet, what is the cartridge part number necessary so that I can call Masco for cartridge replacement?
Can I use the Delta Porter shower cartridge with my existing rough setup? I will be using the new handle, face plate, and cartridge but don't want to mess with the rough connection. My old setup is Delta with a separate water temperature control and the new combines the flow and temperature.
hi there.. thanks so much for this video! liked and subscribed! I'm trying to figure out what my cartridge is as the trim kit looks exactly like a delta one. would be lovely to send you an email to convert as it has the standard arrow pointing leftward to "H" as most delta trim kit seems to have around the perimeter. Anyhow, the tip of my valve has a hexagonal bolt with a screw tip. does that ring a bell to you and if so, could you help me figure out what valve it is and what is compatible for an upgrade? Thank you!
Mine is like the last cartridge but the new one still leaks. i was told to replace the check valve too. What's up with that?
Very Informative!
Wondering if i can replace my dome cartridge to any upgraded cartriges without changing the body?
I wanted to change the handle to just left and right.. Thanks in Advance!
Wont happen.... Need a new rough in valve
Thanks for very good collective information. This helps a lot of time, especially in terms of shutting off the water to find out what you have. With your video, I believe to have the ball version (the handle and the dome chrome beneath), how do I go by replacing it to Rp46074 type. I assume I will have to replace the valve body, but will I have to replace the handle and the wall cover place? Will the debt allocated for the ball type be sufficient for the Rp46074 as you mentioned to be longer? If possible a video would help if there is one on youtube.
Muchas gracias por este video, me ahorraste $175.00
Thank you very much, you saved me $175 on a plumber
I just bought one of the blue ones to replace an older one that the plumbing supply store thought would work. The replacement is rp19804. But it appears to be a little too long as it won't fit into the slots. It's just a little too far out of the wall and the knot will not go on. I'm at a loss as to which one I need, lol.
The blue one is the shortest one. Can you email us a picture of your faucet and the old cartridge
For RP70538 cartridge, is the check value assembly RP73625 needed? We had that with ours, but we don’t have circles for shower valve rough in depth, the shape actual matches the end of the cartridge so I’m wondering what it’s for.
