Very good rough-in valve.
The valve is a good quality item. It can be used in more than one way which makes it convenient for the customer. The valve was easy to install has a mounting bracket attached which is not on all rough in valves makes install much easier for installer. Would buy this item again.

Replacing Rough Valve in old wall
The product was fine, and the final result was good. I was replacing a 70-year old shower valve that was leaking, motivated by a desire to upgrade to a modern cartridge type. I wish I had paid more attention to physical dimensions of the new valve. With the (well-built) thickness of my existing plaster/tile wall, the valve wouldn't protrude far enough into the shower side of the wall. With a lot of chiseling of concrete, I finally got the job done. If such a longer-throat valve exists, it would have made the job a lot easier. If you have an older, thicker wall, look for such a valve.

Code Issues
The item was exactly what it was supposed to be, just be certain it meets the code for your area. I had to go out and buy a different model locally because the local code required the screws that allow for shut off at the valve.

Perfect
Replace old ball style valve with this. Housing appears to be heavy duty brass that will last longer then I will. This is 2nd one I have used, so I'm plesed with it. Would buy agqain.

Good product, better supplier
The Delta valve and cover are certainly acceptably good products, though the instructions for setting the water temperature are both poorly written and hidden in an arcanely designed PDF file (not at all available in the written matter with packaged with the product). That is, you have to go online to Delta and search for the proper product insturctions and then ... good luck.

Works great
Nice anti-scald feature allows you to adjust the maximum hot water flow. Easy to position, as they give you plenty of room for error with relation to the finished surface level of the wall. I did have a plumber install this for me; I don't do soldering...

Well-Designed Valve
This is a substantial, well-designed valve compared to the 20 year-old old one I broke trying to repair a dripping faucet. Soldered copper connections were easily installed (by a pro plumber), and the faucet cartridge, handles, and trim attached according to instructions with no problems.

Just average
The installation was easy but the flow is lacking. Knowing what I know now I would have gone with a high flow model since I was installing a tub without a shower.

Easy Installation, Great Price
We purchased this valve for a bathroom remodel. We bought a Delta shower/tub kit and needed the rough-in valve, it cost way more everywhere else I looked. It was easy to install and works perfectly. Our old one would not fit the newer tub diverter we purchase and this was the right choice. The price was better than anything else I found online or in stores locally.

perfect fit
This came with everything needed to simply mount in the wall and tile around it. It works great, precision made. The trim and pipe work fit like gloves on to this valve rough in body.

Exact match!
I had no idea I would need this valve but it was highly recommended on the site when I purchased the shower fixture. I ordered the suggested one and it was perfect and just what was required according to my plumber. SO, don't forget you might need a valve too.

Good as expected.
It is a Delta valve. Delta quality is good as expected. If you need to use it in a shower remember it does not come with a plug for bottom port. No big deal just need to get one.

Truly universal.
I appreciated the note that came with our Rizu showerhead and handle to purchase the rough in valve to make the shower functional. I needed to purchase a second rough in valve to make our hand held shower functional.

works great.
This value allows you to set the hot/cold mixture of the water and leave it set so the next time you turn on the shower, you don't have to mess with getting the right temperature. One caution though. You must install it with copper pipe. Plastic pipe can cause the shower to drip alot when you turn on the top spout. Follow all the directions for installation.

Shut off version is different
Great valves, but if you want the one where you can shut off the water at the valve instead of at the main supply its a R10000 IPWS. That is 1/2" female threads at the valve. It's worth it to have repair capability at the valve instead of shutting down the whole house water. I think thats what the other review meant.

Repeat Purchase of Valve
Originally purchased two of the Delta valves for shower/tub combo. Liked the function of this valve and its mating faucets with individual temperature and flow rate controls that I ordered another to update the master walk in shower with similar shower head. Function is far superior to original Moen installation.

This is a great valve. Lots of options on finish and it works well. It is installer friendly which is very important to me. All the parts in this family of valves interchange and that also makes my job easier. I recomend this unit to all my customers.

Q&A
I bought this valve and is it possible to run to the shower and than run the tub spout to a rain head? And then on top of that is there trim kit that can run both at the same time, one at a time? Or do I have to buy a diverter valve?
Thank you for your question, Tyler. You would need an R11000 diverter valve and a 3-setting trim kit in order to divert between a shower head and rain can shower head. The R11000 valve will be connected to the top port of the R10000.
Best regards, Jon

What is the difference between this model with PEX Cold Expansion R10000-MF and the PEX Crimp R10000-PX? Is the insert barb bigger in the former than the latter to accommodate the stretched PEX during installation? Thanks.
Thank you for your question, David! The difference on these models is solely in the connection for the Inlets in regards to the type being used. Both will feature universal 1/2" connections, however the R1000-PX will have slightly tapered inlets for easier installation.
Best regards, Edward

i installed two of these rough in valves into my walk in shower. I teed the hots and colds together from original. I don't have a valve yet but plugged the shower head. i noticed that the valve itself is very hot to the touch with no H2O moving through
Hi, Doug.
Thank you for your question. The R10000-MF is a solid brass valve body. Any type of connection around the valve body in your wall that gets hot will make the valve body hot.

What is the difference between a "box" model and the other roughin valves? Also, what is the difference between a high flow model and non high flow rough in showervalve?
Hello Aaron,
Thank you for your question. The Delta MultiChoice Universal Rough-In "box" model rough-in valves are single model units and non-box models comes as bulk/case of units. The difference between the High Flow and non high flow valves is that there (non high flow valve) a bottom port for a tub spout installation and the R10000-UNBXHF valve does not include a bottom port for a tub spout installation. The high flow valve are designed for shower only installation.
Best regards,
Tanya

I am trying to trouble shoot my installation of Universal shower mixer. The water coming out the shower head or tube is lukewarm. Do I just adjust the shut off screws?
Hello Lucho1!
Thank you for your question and we are happy to help! To troubleshoot your Delta MultiChoice® Universal Tub / Shower Rough - PEX Cold Expansion MODEL#: R10000-MFwe recommend flushing the valves with all new installations. The problem you are describing is most likely the result of debris in your supply lines or faucet.
Over time, common water debris will settle in the house supply lines. Anytime the water is shut off to a portion of the home, this debris can become dislodged and will move through the pipes to be caught by a faucet. Local construction or the changing of the seasons can also cause this. Flushing the supply lines through the unit should remedy this situation.
To flush the unit, we recommend the following:
Start with the easy stuff:
Remove your aerator, wand or hose to check the flow through the unit without that part installed.
If the flow is good, the piece you’ve removed is where the issue is.
Soaking the part in a 50/50 mixture of white vinegar and water could help remove any particles or debris blocking the flow.
If the water does not have a good flow, the problem could be in the faucet.
Next, check the supply lines for debris:
Turn the supply off to both the hot and cold-water lines.
Once off, turn the handle on the faucet to the on position and leave it there to bleed the lines of any excess water.
Next, disconnect the hot water supply line and place it inside of a bucket.
Once the line is securely positioned into the bucket, turn on the cold-water supply.
Since the handle was left in the on position, the water will flow up the cold supply line, through the faucet cartridge and back down the hot water line into the bucket. Leave this flowing for at least 30 seconds. After flushing, reconnect the hot water line and repeat this process with the cold-water line to ensure all particles have been removed from both supplies.
With any further questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to reach out to us directly. Thank you for being a loyal Delta customer.
Best Regards,
Carrie
