    Default Epic faucets. Manufactured by Delta and discontinued 1994

    I have 2 models of the Epic faucet that I can not fine replacement parts for, the fixtures are in great shape and I really had to part with them. One style, the handle is released by pressing down and turning clockwise, that does not seam to work with the other style. Can you help?

    The Epic was manufactured by Delta and was discontinued 1994.
    It was a luxury type faucet and you can`t get parts for them anymore.

    Default EPIC Bath & Shower Fixtures

    Saw this thread and thought I would drop a related one to see if I can't find a solution to my own EPIC issue.

    When I purchased my home in August, I wanted to replace the tacky gold EPIC brand fixtures in the bath/showers. When I removed the hot/cold on/off handle and plate cover for one shower, I noticed that the in-place fixture that directs the water was not the standard size; it is actually twice as big and would not accommodate the stem fixture I had wanted to replace it with. Is there some sort of adapter available for this issue or is there another brand that accommodates what used to be the EPIC brands? Am I stuck with having a plumber inspect and replace, possibly needing to cut through the dry wall behind the shower to redo the pipes?

    I can provide a picture of the fixture if that helps.

    I am NOT sure what you were trying to do, but there are NO "standard size" pieces, and if you were trying to replace the stems and handles with another brand, that is usually impossible also.
