How do you get the part #4 (control cover) of after installation without breaking the piece. It snapped on easy enough but how do you get it of? I am unable to turn the temperature controll piece more than 10 degrees which does not allow me to adjust any temperature. Any guidance???

Answer:
Thank you for your question. To remove the temperature knob cover, we recommend squeezing the sides together slightly with one hand. Then with the other hand, grasp the knob sticking out and pop it off the faucet.

Answer:
Thank you for your question. Delta Faucet model # T17253-SS-H2O is recommended to be paired with our multi-choice valve, R10000-UNBXHF. This is our universal valve that will work with any application and get the highest flow of water.

Answers
Answer:
Thank you for your question. Delta Faucet model T17T253 is a thermoastatic trim. If you would like a pressure balanced trim, you will need the following items:
R10000-UNBXHF rough-in valve
T17253-SS trim
R11000 diverter rough
T11853-SS diverter trim
Your choice of wall supply elbow: 50570-SS or 50560-SS
Your choice of handheld shower: 55530-SS, 57530-SS, or 58470-SS
Your local wholesaler or retailer will have your cost for each model.

Even though the H2O version uses less water, will it provide as much pressure to wrince hair during showering, or would the rain can version be better? Thanks.

Answer:
Thank you for your question. Delta Faucet model T17253-SS will have an output of 2.5 gpm and T17253-SSH2O will have an output of 2.0 gpm but it feels like 2.5 gpm. It is really a personal preference as to the style that you prefer. One version is not better than the other.

Will the R10000-UNBX work for a shower only setup?
If so how would I plug the tub outflow?
Also would the R10000-UNBXHF Multichoice Universal Shower Only Valve Body work?
if so would the R10000-UNBXHF be a better choice?

Answer:
Thank you for your question. Either Delta Faucet R10000-UNBX or R10000-UNBXHF will work for a shower only application. There are instructions for using it with the R10000-UNBX with the shower only trim. If you are going to not use a tub spout at all, we would recommend using the R10000-UNBXHF to get a higher flow.

Answers
Answer:
Thank you for your question. The Vero collection has 3 different types of showers that you can purchase and they all have slightly different functions. The first step is the T14253 and this model has a handle that only controls the temperature. The volume cannot be adjusted with this model. The second step up is the T17253 and this model has two handles that sit on top of each other. One controls the volume and one controls the temperature. Both the T14253 and the T17253 have a pressure balanced catridge inside. The third and final step up is the T17T253. This also has the two handles that sit on top of each other with one controlling the temperature and one controlling the volume. But the T17T253 has a cartriridge that is thermostatic balanced.
