Custom Showers

I don't want to change my plumbing. What kind of shower can I get?

If you don’t want to modify any of your plumbing, you can get a standard shower, which you can customize with by simply choosing your own configuration options. You can also get a jetted shower, which can give you that spa-like experience without requiring a major overhaul of your entire bathroom.

 

See Your Shower Experience for more information on the options available.

Answer: 
Thank you for your question. However, I will need more information before I can give you an answer. Do you have a specific model that you are asking about and what do you mean by "the bottom?"

T14486-SHQ

Hi,

I purchased a couple T14486-SHQ Shower/Tub sets with the Rough. I did not realize that the tub spout is not long enough to reach the tube since the tub is installed about 5" off the wall. Is there a Tub Spout available that is either extra long or can be surface mounted and is still compatible with the Valve? I want to try and avoid using a Roman Tub setup so I dont have 3 or more holes on the surface.

Thank you,

J

Thank you for your question. The tub spout that is included with Delta Faucet model # T14486-SHQ is one of the longest tub spouts we have. It is 7 1/8" long.

Creating a tub/shower with Roman hand held

I would like to use the Leland Monitor 17 (T17478-RBH2O) and the Roman Hand Shower with Transfer Valve (RP33791RBHLP) to create my perfect tub/shower system. Is this possible and, if so, what are the components that I will need to do this? Thanks.

Answer: 
Thank you for your question. Unfortunately, we cannot give you an answer without more information like what are your going to use the transfer valve for? Is it for the handshower or the tub spout? How will the transfer valve be plumbed into your T17478-RBH2O?

If you could either give us more details of your setup or contact our Home Owner/Warranty line at 800-345-3358 for further instruction, we can help answer your questions.

Answers

Answer: 
Thank you for your questions. When you use the T17253 shower trim with the other peices, you will get about 6.7 gpm out of your R10000-UNBXHF valve. You will lose about 1/2 gallon through your R11000 diverter. If you switch to the T17T253, then you will increase your GPM to 9.0 gallons.

When using your diverter, you will only be able to use two of the devices at a time. You cannot use all three at once.

Answers

Answer: 
Thank you for your questions. We have a couple of shower systems that we can recommend. First of all, we have Delta Faucet model # T17238 which is a pressure balanced cartridge. Secondly, an upgrade would be model # T17T238 which is thermostatic cartridge.

Either one of these will use the R10000-UNWSHF rough-in valve. WS is with screwdriver stops which means you can turn off the water at the vavle instead of turning off the water to the whole house. HF means high flow which can only be used in shower only application.

You will also need the R11000 rough in diverter valve and the T11900 6-setting diverter trim. This will allow you to use your ceiling showerhead and handheld showerhead at the same time or independently.

Fianlly you will need to pick your handheld shower and ceiling showehead.
