diverter

Hello, When the water is on the faucet functions fine, but once the diverter is pulled up to activate the shower the spout shoots out. I've tried to manually hold it in place and it still fights to come off or the water comes out of the back end. I've tried some Teflon tape on the tip of the...

Is there a way to change my shower diverter from a knob to the faucet valve kind. Basically making the middle knob of a three knob system useless. I used to have a shower like this but I don't know how to do it myself. Thanks!

I have a weird setup in my bathtub. The tub spout is attached to the normal 1/2" copper stub, but if you grab the spout it can be moved from side to side. The copper line coming down from the mixing valve is regular 1/2" copper but it goes into some type of "swivel fitting", that allows the...

This may be dumb to ask but I've searched all over and can't find what I need. We needed to replace the spout in a tub/shower and couldn't get it free; someone came to help but couldn't get it either. They then used a hacksaw to remove the plastic-like spout, breaking it off and leaving behind...

arg! I didn't realize that the photos would disappear - let's try this again with a different host! I did a bunch of searching, but haven't found a post about anyone else being a huge dumbass like I was ;) So years ago I got this big acrylic shower that had literally fallen off a truck and...

Sorry if this question has already been asked. I am a homeowner, not a plumber, but I am responsible for acquiring all my materials. "I" am building a walk in shower, with a shower head and a hand held shower only. I purchased a kohler shower head kit on clearance at a big box store. It is for a...

I have questions about certain tub/shower faucets... 1. While I know two-handle and three-handle tub/shower faucets aren't code-compliant today, when they were permissible, which of the two or three configurations seemed to work best, and which of these configurations was more ancient? (a)...

I have a Delta kitchen faucet. The model number is 400-DST-L (Delta Classic Chrome) The sprayer hose wore out at the sprayer end. I got a new sprayer assembly directly from Delta: IRP60097: Diamond Seal Technology Vegetable Spray. The male connector end of the sprayer appears to fit the...

Replaced all the parts in the diverter and it still won't divert all the water to the shower head. I've been a service plumber for more than 40 years. I don't get stumped very often but this has me baffled. Any help would be appreciated.

Is it normal for some water to still come out from the diverter spout when the shower is on? This is a brand new Delta valve with trim kit installed. Delta sent me a new replacement diverter spout but it is the same. The Moen I have at home does not leak when the shower is on. You can see a...

I have a leaky diverter and have been to, in person or online, maybe 10 outlets, no one can tell me. Can anyone please tell me... THANKS!
