Good install for quality product
Contractor/plumber said this was an easy install for the pex pipes. They swear by Delta brand.

Valve
High quality. I love the treading on the outside of the valve inlets. This provides the option to connect either by soldering or treading. I purchased this particular style for the purpose of soldering.

The valve is great, the second one I have installed, my only negative is the shower head has a wand incorporated, but you cannot use the wand separately from the shower head.

Plumber had handle installed incorrectly and it took me an hour to figure out why we could not get hot water, only like warm.
Seems to be good quality but very confusing to install.

Plumber put this in with no problems. I really like having a valve that allows adjustment of the water temperature and pressure separately.

Run this by your plumber first to make sure it will work with your fixture - the chat line works well too.

View Actual Finish Before Purchasing
I ordered this Faucet on the recommendation of a Ferguson Showroom Associate. In the photo it looked great, but what arrived was not. The Facia and both Handles were each different in texture and color. The Facia piece was far from being considered "brushed", but appeared more "organized-scratched".
If you are not looking for uniform finishes and colors, I am sure this will be a great choice.

Not for residential!
If I wasn't on a schedule, I would have returned for the other rough in valve offered. This rough in valve has on off valves for each supply line but as I was made aware it's more for multi-unit residences and not necessarily for single family homes where the water shut off for the house is plenty. This valve gave me two more points of possible failure that I didn't need. The likely hood is probably low, but you never know and I would much rather have the more simple design. Valve works as designed though.

Quality Rough In Valve
I highly recommend purchasing this valve. You can rough this in and determine your tub, shower head, etc at a later date. This model is the lowest cost. If you don't have shutoffs elsewhere, I would recommend getting the mixing valve with shutoffs over this one.This valve will work in walls bult out with 2x3.

Q&A
In a 1-pc. fiberglass shower/tub , what size holes are needed for single lever faucet and tub spout ?
I am installing a 1755rb-716rb set and have to drill holes for valve and spout .
Hi Doug,
Thank you for your question!
The hole for the valve should be cut to the size of the plaster guard which is 4" x 4".
The hole for the size of the tub spout should be at least 1/2" for the pipe to fit through and no larger than the diameter of the tub spout, which is 3 1/8" on this model.

what model of cartridge it needs
Thank you for your question, transito! The R10000-UN rough in body, can be used with Delta valve trims in the 13/14,17 and 17T series. Each trim would included a compatible cartridge, that would fit inside the valve.
Best Regards, Benjamin

R10000 Rough in Body w/Stops version. (17T)
On either side of the valve body, there are two (2) mechanical stem and nut assemblies. I assume, when turning the stem(s) clockwise, and the stem(s) bottom out, this will stop the flow of water completely.
Conversely, if I turn the stem counter-clockwise the flow of water increases. How can I tell, without backing the stem out further than need be, will I get full flow?
Instructions say " adjust stem clockwise to close, and counterclockwise to open".
I'm not sure if I understand the purpose of these stops.
Thanks
Hi Rick,
Thank you for your question. These stops are designed to turn the water off directly at the valve during installation or repairs. They should be left in the open position when the trim is installed, as the cartridge will be used to turn the water on and off.
Best regards,
Jon

Can I exceed the 18 inch max distance from valve to tub spout
I will be mounting a tub spout very near the floor of a shower stall and a rain head from the ceiling. I want to use the spout to drain the pipe to shower head and to let water warm up before diverting flow to rain head. The distance from valve to tub spout will be about 36 inches (3 times the max). Should I increase the size of the spout supply to 3/4 to reduce pressure so I don't have water flow through rain head until diverter is closed.
Dear Jon,
Thank you for your question. When using the Delta MultiChoice Universal Rough-In valve R10000-UN, the length between the valve and the tub spout has to be between 8"-18". If it is more than 18", you will have a situation called shower rise where water comes out of the showerhead when you only have the tub spout running.
Best regards,
Tanya

How do I determine which style valve I need (R10000-???)
Replacing existing rough valve that broke (moron who installed originally did not use stringer to support, valve just hung in mid-air by copper tubing). I have copper 1/2" tubing w/ soldered connections, Delta T13 Series Tub & Shower. Access to the back of valve through 2x4 framed wall w/ drywall. Fiberglass one-piece tub/shower.
Thank you for your question. Since you are mounting this on a fiberglass shower, we would recommend using the R10000-UNWSBXT for a thin wall mounting.
Date published: 2024-03-28
What cartridges can be used for the valve';
Hi Dmead009, Thank you for your question. The R10000-UN multichoice universal rough uses our 13/14 series cartridge RP46074, our 17 series dual function cartridge RP46463, and our 17T thermostatic cartridge RP47201.
You need the appropriate trim that matches each cartridge.
Thanks,
Dave

I have the R10000-UNWS (with stops). After rough-in and cartridge, how far out to I need to unscrew the stops? I am getting low flow and wondering if I didn't unscrew them far enough, but I was worried they would come out of the body. Or do they stop?
Hi, Hugh!
Thank you for your question. The screw stops on the R10000-UNWS will stop turning when fully open. You can turn the stops clockwise up to three full turns from the open position without a noticeable reduction in flow.
Best Regards,
Rosanna

What is considered the "finished wall" for installing a Delta R10000 Multi Choice value in an acrylic walk in shower unit??
For installing with a MAXX shower unit, the plasterguard should be flushed with the acrylic wall section (that is, the same as if you were installing with a tiled wall)?
Hi Jerry67,
Thank you for your question. That is correct! The finished wall will be the final surface after everything is installed. The acrylic wall section would be considered the finished wall in your installation.
Best regards,
Jon
