    Hi all. DIY installer of a greywater DWV system in Bainbridge Island (UPC). Iso drawing attached. Im trying to size the greywater to a 2” drain pipe since the recommended 3-way pool valves are 2” (And it seems 3” 3-way valves would be prohibitively expensive). Diverter valves to an approved...

    Hello, I'm looking for some advice on replacing my bath valves and I'm not real sure where to start. I've actually already replaced these once 16 years ago, but the local parts store that I bought the parts from no longer sells them and I didn't keep the information. I'd like to replace the...

    Harden Shower Diverter Stem

    Our Harden diverter does not divert. The handle just unloosens the splined stem when turned counter-clockwise and the handle and splined inner shaft screws all the way out of the valve. I found a previous post here from 2012 about how to remove the entire cartridge. In that post, there is a...

    Faucet diverter came off - no obvious way to re-install

    Hey folks, a bit of an emergency situation here, and all the plumbers in town are busy. The faucet came off the tub when one of our AirBnB guests turned on the shower. It doesn't look like anything I'm finding on the internet, and I'm not sure what to do here. There's not a screw that holds the...

    Here is a gold tub faucet from 1981 that is not diverting well. I wonder if the diverter on this can be repaired. These are photos sent to me.

    Sweat soldering to control valve

    In my first post I forgot to ask the question. Can I sweat a copper fitting to the output of the valve pictured? I don’t know if there is any plastic in the diverter and I wouldn’t know how to remove it if there were. I was told to use 1/2” copper for shower head for more volume. Is that true...

    Kohler Shower Diverter Replaced and Water is Still Draining from Shower and Spout.

    I have a Kohler 3 way in wall shower diverter that pulls out for shower, push in for spout. When you would pull out for the shower it was draining water from the faucet and the shower attachment. I replaced the shower diverter (the hot and cold stems had recently been changed also). This did...

    Shower Tub Spout Diverter Keeps breaking

    I have a Shower Diverter that keeps breaking. Last one, I had for 10 years, and it got stuck, or sprays water between the Shower head and faucet.

    Can Removing Shower Head Restrictor affect Diverter?

    I live in California, I removed the water restrictor in my shower head, because the standards are too low here. Does removing the restrictor affect the shower diverter or anything else? My Shower Diverter keeps getting stuck even after couple spout replacement, where water goes to Both the Tub...

    Copper Pipe Crimp A Problem?

    I had a plumber put in a new valve body since I'm in the midst of a complete tear down of the tub surround. I noticed that the copper line (diverter pipe) that feeds the shower head has some crimps in it. It looks to me like he grabbed it pretty hard with a wrench while sweating everything...

    Bathtub faucet spout shoots off like a rocket

    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...

    Switch from knob diverter to faucet

    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!
