PRODUCT FEATURES
With separate handles for volume and temperature control, this Delta tub/shower provides a more refined showering experience. Simply set the water at your preferred temperature and turn the shower on or off with the volume control handle - without interrupting your set temperature. While other products may gather unsightly mineral build-up over time, Delta soft rubber Touch-Clean® spray holes allow any mineral residue to simply be wiped away for an instantly refreshed look – with no need for soaking or the aid of chemical cleaners. Delta® pressure-balance valves use Monitor® Technology to protect you and your family from sudden temperature changes. Chrome has rapidly become one of the most popular finishes across décor styles in the bath thanks to its stunning gloss and innate versatility. Paired with crisp lines and bright whites, it creates a bold, modern contrast, but it works equally well with vintage styles and traditional spaces to convey a hint of nostalgia.
  • SpotShield Technology helps your product stay cleaner, longer by resisting water spots and fingerprints
  • Control volume and water temperature independently with two separate handles for more refined control of your shower experience
  • Monitor pressure balance valve keeps water temperature within a safe +/-3degrees F (+/-1.6degrees C), helping to protect you from sudden changes in hot or cold water pressure
  • Spray settings include: Full Body spray
  • Full body spray provides a steady, full-coverage spray perfect for every shower need, from rinsing shampoo from hair to relaxing tired muscles
  • Soft, rubber Touch-Clean spray holes allow you to easily wipe away calcium and lime build-up from the spray face of your shower head and hand shower with the touch of a finger
  • Trim kit only, must order MultiChoice® Universal Valve separately to complete the unit
  • ADA Compliant

Rated 1 out of 5 by from delta As a professional. What can I say, its Delta,, great products
Date published: 2025-10-05
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Delta is so much better than it used to be My plumber installed a Delta valve in my shower due to a miscommunication about the shower system I bought that didn’t come with a valve. Unfortunately or maybe fortunately depends which way you look at it, he installed the valve at standard height which meant the shower system had to be installed at the height of a 7 foot tall person. I was really annoyed that I was going to have replace my shower system with Delta shower products to match up with the valve that was already installed. When I was growing up Delta was the cheapest product used in tract homes. Much to my surprise Delta has completely changed for the better! I am very impressed with how nicely the shower head and valve cover perform. I also bought the diverter valve which is awesome and the totally incredible handheld shower that has a button for spraying water out the end to clean the shower walls.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Very stylish Very stylish. Gives a lot of pressure.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Excellent quality Very well made, 2.5 GPM. It’s larger than the one it replaced, so the water is routed through more holes, resulting in less forceful spray. I’m still getting used to the “softer” spray but I’m happy with my choice. The on/off lever has a separate lever to regulate temperature. This is one reason I selected it.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Impossible to clean I have three of these in my home. What a mistake! The styling is great, but they are impossible to clean. They show water spots and the shower head cannot be cleaned of calcium spots. The product is cheaply made. The temperature indicator is a sticker and it peeled off in our main bath. A sticker in a hot steamy shower enclosure? You WILL be disappointed if you use this product over time.

Rated 2 out of 5 by from Clogged [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After 2 years the spray was not coming out properly. A plumber told us it was clogged. So disappointing.
Date published: 2022-07-04
Rated 3 out of 5 by from Delta Shower Trim The shower trim is attractive. However, based upon the price, I was expecting better quality materials and a more consistent finish between the different materials used. In particular, I did not expect the temperature control handle to feel so flimsy compared to the more robust volume control.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Good shower head and controls. Very attractive and mostly functional. I love the temperature control. My complaint is that the distance from the shower head to the wall is too short. As a result the shower head has to be at an angle and the water delivery is less vertical than I would like.

Q&A

Hi. Is the model T17251 Dryden 1-Handle Rain Can Shower head, a WaterSense model?

Asked by: Mariela
Hello, Marlela! Thank you for your question. The T17251 is not a WaterSense shower unit. We do have a shower unit that is WaterSense labeled. The part number is 52283. Here is a link to this shower head: https://www.deltafaucet.com/parts-product-detail?modelNumber=52283 Best Regards, Rosanna

I have a new Dryden tub/shower faucet and the water does not get hot. The temp lever does not go all the way to the end of the red but does adjust all the way to the end of the blue side. Is that the problem?

Asked by: Wendy
Hi, Wendy! Thank you for your question. There is a rotational limit stop that can be adjusted so that the faucets more hot water to come out. To adjust, please remove the temperature cover and take a phillips head screw driver and turn the set screw counter clockwise to remove. Please remove the gray knob. Behind the knob, you should see a black disk. Please take this disk and take it out and place the disk to the hotter side. The hot side should be up against the iron piece that is sticking down on the volume handle. If you need some assistance, please call us at 1-800-345-3358 for further instructions. I hope this helps. Best Regards, Rosanna

Will this perform well at 45 psi. I'm on a well and average that pressure

Asked by: Tom
Thank you for your question. When using Delta Faucet model # T17251 on a well with 45 psi, you should see no difference in the GPM from the showerhead. There will still be 2.5 gpm. You might lose a gallon from the tub spout. There will probably be around 5 gpm from the tub spout.

new trim kits for an existing valve

I have an multi-function single handle shower valve that I am wanting to upgrade the trim kit on. The brass valve body is stamped with a 1016P. I like the style of the Dryden but it looks like these kits come with a cartridge that I dont need. Is that correct? Can I purchase just the trim and shower head without the guts of the valve body?
Asked by: Brett
Hi Brett, Thank you for your question. The Dryden model T17251 will work with your existing rough in valve. Depending on the age of your existing faucet the cartridge that ships with the new trim may or may not fit your existing valve. If your faucet is newer than February 2006 the cartridge would fit, if it is older than that date the cartridge will not fit. We do not offer the faucet trims without the cartridges. You could piece together the trim separately but it would be more expensive than the full trim with the cartridge. Thanks, Dave

Does this come with a rubber gasket that goes between shower arm and shower head?

Asked by: BD
Thank you for your question, BD! The shower head gasket is included. We recommend using a few wraps of plumber's tape on the threads as well. Best regards, Jon

My shower head continually drips water from the bottom even when the water is turned off. What could be the issue?

Asked by: cleveland714
Hi, cleveland714! Thank you for your question, and I am sorry to hear that you are experiencing a leak from your Delta shower unit. You may have some debris trapped in the valve body or cartridge assembly that is blocking the water flow.You may need to clean out the cartridge assembly and flush out the valve body. First turn off the water supply to the faucet. Remove the handle assembly, unscrew the bonnet ring and remove the cartridge assembly and all seals. Rinse and clean the cartridge out thoroughly. Turn both the hot and cold water back on for 10 to 15 seconds to flush out the valve body. After the allotted time, turn the water off and reinstall all of the components. Make sure that there is no debris on the cartridge assembly and seals. If this does not resolve your issue, we do recommend to replace the seal kit adapter, RP46073. Here is a link to the part: https://www.deltafaucet.com/parts-product-detail?modelNumber=RP46073 Best Regards, Rosanna

Multi port diverter option

Hi, I want to to control water to the tub faucet, the shower head or a hand held sprayer. Is there a diverter valve option for this product to enable 3 separate output capabilities.
Asked by: Dave Gray
Dear Dave Gray, Thank you for your inquiry! You would need the Delta Dryden Tub and Shower Trim T17451. https://www.deltafaucet.com/bathroom/product/T17451 Then you would need the Diverter Valve R11000 and matching Dryden 3-Setting diverter Trim T11851, to complete the install you described. https://www.deltafaucet.com/bathroom/product/T11851 https://www.deltafaucet.com/bathroom/product/R11000 Best regards, Tanya

Does this have a different cartridge than other 17 Series?

I was using your website's compare feature to look at the Lahara and Dryden trims. For the valve and cartridge information, the Dryden says NA, whereas the Lahara says Dual-function pressure balance cartridge. Does the Dryden not have the same dual-function pressure balance cartridge, too?
Asked by: ajbe
Hi ajbe, Thank you for your question! This unit will have the same cartridge as other 17 series showers, such as the Lahara T17238. Thanks, Jon
