GOOD QUALITY VALVE
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We had this valve installed when our bath remodel was done. It replaced a dual handle diverter valve . We are very pleased with the quality and performance of the valve. It operates smoothly and is much easier to use than the old diverter valve. The Service Stops are handy as well. We highly recommend this valve. In fact we will be remodeling a second bath soon and plan to use the same model valve.

only lasted 16 months
I had the R10000-UNBXHF valve body (in conjuction with the T17038-SS Lahara 17 series valve trim) installed 16 months ago and the shower head is now dripping when the valve is turned fully in the off position. I cannot find a rebuild kit on this website for this particular valve body.
Does anyone know if a rebuild kit is available?

Needed Cold water with pressure
After researching for a valve that would go to my existing Delta shower set up and having a certified plumber also call several times this item was order on line for installation by a plumber. Though the installation took a while it was well worth it. Now we can control the temperature of the water and have as much pressure through the shower heads as we want. With 110 degrees everyday it's nice to take a cold or cool shower.

DELTA VALVES ARE THE WAY TO GO
This is the second one of these valves I put in and they are the best quality valve for the price. Having the stops made in to the valve is great. Thanks FaucetDirect for a good shopping experience and fast shipping.

Heavy duty.
This is a required building block for the TempAssure® 17T shower faucet. It is made from heavy duty brass and installs easily. All faucet items fit flawlessly.

Perfect Plumbing Piece
I am in the middle of renovating my bathroom and we are putting the shower in. So I ordered this shower Valve. The contractor commented that it was very easy to install, and well built. He usually uses the local box stores for supplies but after I gave him the web site he plans to order directly.

Check review for T17430-MTS. Will be used in conjunction with it. Even though we've had this product for a year, have not had a chance to install yet. Was looking for unit with separate water volume and temp control. Could not find at local stores, found on line. Started looking at units knowing we wanted to replace existing cruddy ones with parts missing at some time. When these were found, went ahead and made the purchase. So at this point can only say they look good and will serve the purpose.

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
