It's okay to leave it to itself
It's important to prepare the pipe Nipple to extend 1/2" from the wall. Usually, older homes have already been set up this way. An adapter is included to fit 1/2" pipe in addition to 3/4" pipe. Another type of spout (more expensive) is "universal" fit they come in several sizes They are adjustable, can be mounted on bare copper or pipe nipples, and are easy to install The depth of this unit makes it very easy to install. There is no way to adjust the depth of this item, other than screwing or unscrewing the threads. From ancient times to the present That's the way to do it. Even though it takes a lot more time and effort to get installed correctly, it's very high quality, and the price is low.

I never thought I'd feel so passionate about a tub diverter spout at any time in my life, but that's just what I feel about them at this moment. When the rubber O ring inside the plumbing of the faucet pops loose early on in its lifespan, you'll barely get any water coming out of the shower head when you pull the tab. I feel an enormous pain in my back. Despite that, it is super simple to install. The fact that I have to do it every few weeks is a blessing. Can you please let me know if there is a way to fix the rubber o ring without buying a new faucet for each time. I would also appreciate if you would recommend a faucet that would work with the same set up that you have.
The flow of the handheld shower is good with the water pressure on the diverter. Having this shower saved me from having to tear down the wall to install a full install in a 1936 house with no It is not possible to adjust for differences in pipe depth as one can see, but home improvement stores or real plumbing supply companies have spacers for this purpose. We've used it about 20 times so far and so far everything has been fine.
The old faucet I had was very similar to this one, so I bought it to replace Even though this faucet is made from all metal parts, unlike the older one, the quality of manufacturing on the older one was superior. It is the inner plumbing of this faucet that is malfunctioning. It is impossible to get the deck to sit flush on the surface of the tub because the tabs on the brass "guts" that are hidden behind the deck protrude beyond the depth of the deck. There are tabs on the faucet that appear to be part of the mold where the brass is poured during the manufacturing process, but they do not appear to be necessary to operate In the end, my plumber neighbor fixed the problem and installed the faucet. By filing the tabs down until they were below the level of the faucet deck, he fixed the problem. Because of this defect, I have given the faucet 2 stars. It was quite simple for us to fix once we realized what was wrong, but it might not be so simple for someone who does not possess the tools necessary to complete this task. It shouldn't be necessary for them to do so. Aside from that one minor thing, the faucet appears to work well, though only five minutes after installing it the finial fell off the diverter rod. Nothing to be concerned about. It was just a matter of screwing it back on and tightening it.
Whether you want to or not. I have written two of these now. After a little while, approximately three months, there is a problem. The knob needs to be repositioned in order for the shower head to go on. It will break off after a year. You can pop it back on to fix it for a short time, but it will not last long. You will begin to loosen the connection between the line and the head of the shower when doing so. You decide that I need the stitch on part at the top and not at.
After pulling up the little rod you can see the water in your shower head but you are not getting water. That was the only time it worked. There was some kind of failure in the pull-up rod, because when the water was turned on a piece of rubber came out the main opening. Several similar devices have been used by my family for years, but this one is the worst. My wife accidentally threw the package away, otherwise I would have returned The first time I tried to use it yesterday, I discovered it didn't work at all. The fact that so many of my Delta products have failed makes me not want to buy any more products from Delta. Our other small products worked fine for two people, so I thought this would be no different the product didn't cost much as it fitted the low cost of the low-cost package.
Although this faucet is called Delta, it is NOT a Delta model. My package arrived half fallen out of its package and it looked as if it had been sitting on a shelf for decades. I assume that the outside is made of brass or metal. Plastic is the only material used in the interior. It offers good performance so far, but I'm concerned about its durability. We've had it installed for a month and it seems to work well. I would be over the moon if someone made a more robust version of this.
I received the order on time and found the faucet to be in poor working condition after installation. Despite this, more than 80% of the water does not divert and continues to flow out the tap. A second issue is that when the water is off, the knob does not go down, and it takes considerable effort to make it do so. That's a real disappointment. In this case, I will be returning it.
