MultiChoice® Universal Tub / Shower Rough - Universal Inlets / Outlets

Hello, Thank you for your question! Unfortunately we do not offer plugs for this. You may need to install a standard R10000-UN rough-in valve in its place. Please reach out with further questions! Best Regards, Tim Digital Communications Specialist

Hi, Casey! Thank you for your question. The Delta MultiChoice Universal rough valve bodies R10000-UNBX and R10000-UN are the same and have no differences. For a 3 neck hook-up, we recommend to add a diverter valve to the top port to be able to install additional shower units. Best Regards, Rosanna

Hi, Asn86! Thank you for your question. The Delta MultiChoice Universal Tub / Shower Rough - Universal Inlets / Outlets (R10000-UNBX) is only guaranteed to work with Delta Valve Trim kits. Best Regards, Rosanna

Hi Jumperboy, Thank you for your question. While the tub spout would work, the thermostatic cartridge RP47201 would not work with the handles for the T17253. You would also need the RP62960 volume handle, RP62959 temperature knob, and RP50879 sleeve. http://www.deltafaucet.com/search/results.html?q=RP62960%2C+RP62959%2C+RP50879+ Thanks, Jon

Hi Joe, We are sorry that you are experiencing a problem with your faucet. Most likely, you are experiencing "shower-rise" where the water can’t get out of the spout as fast as it flows through the valve. This causes the water to back up and come out the shower head. There can be one of several reasons for this: The valve could be upside down The length from the valve to the tub spout is outside of the 8" to 18" rule There is more than one 90-degree angle Something other than copper or galvanized pipe was used going to the spout The most common reason is that there is something restricting the water flow to the spout, e.g. solder or something lodged in the pipe. Something is impeding the flow of water to the spout and causing it to back up and go out the shower head. If this is the cause of shower-rise it is possible to remove the blockage by removing the tub spout; then, feeding a plumber’s snake or a speedometer cable up through the tub drop. The act of feeding it causes it to twirl and loosen the blockage. Be sure to flush the valve before reinstalling the tub spout. Be sure to check the tub spout itself for blockage. If none of these help, you may need to call a plumber. After the shower has been installed and the wall has been closed, there is little that can be done to remedy this situation yourself.

Hi, Eric! Thank you for your question. The hot and cold water supplies can be reversed from the Delta MultiChoice Universal R10000-UNBXT Rough Valve Body. Best Regards, Rosanna

Dear Garies, Thank you for your question. The Delta MultiChoice Rough-In R10000-UNBX Valve is recommended to used T17264 (shower only) or the T17464 (tub/shower). The Delta Diverter R11000 Valve would be installed above it. Best Regards, Tanya

Thank you for your question, Karen. The R10000-UNBX valve is the highest flow rate for the tub spout. The actual flow rate will depend on the water pressure in the home and the trim series that you install. Here are the flow rates from this valve (tub spout port) at 60 PSI: 14 Series: 6.0 GPM 17 Series: 6.2 GPM 17T Series: 7.8 GPM Best regards. Jon

Hi, Ed! Thank you for your question. All of our Delta MultiChoice R10000 Rough In Valve Bodies work with any of our Delta Single and Dual Monitor and TempAssure Valve Trim Kits. Cartridge are included with each trim kit. Here is a link to our trim kits: https://www.deltafaucet.com/bathroom/showering/tub-and-shower-faucets Best Regards, Rosanna

Hi, Edward! Thank you for your question. The Delta MultiChoice R10000-UNBX rough in valve will not determine the flow rate. The trim kit that is selected to be installed with the rough in valve will include the valve cartridge assembly and will determine the flow rate for the unit. Best Regards, Rosanna

Thank you for your question, Erio! The Delta MultiChoice Universal Rough-In Valve R1000-UNBX is currently the only shower and tub/shower valve we manufacture. The ASSE1016MASCO is a plumbing code printed on several of our showering parts. Best regards, Tanya

Hi Sky, Thank you for your question! Please make sure that the plaster guard is flush (or up to 3/8" sub flush) with the finished wall. If the valve is out too far, you may turn the stops 3 turns in from the full open position without a noticeable reduction of flow. This will provide an additional 1/8” of clearance for the escutcheon. Best regards, Jon

Thank you for your question. Based on your picture, your model is a 1300/1400 series faucet and the cartridge is a model RP19804.

Thank you for your question, Rivermn. This valve is about 4" wide and will require supplies on the hot and cold side. You will need enough room for the plumbing connections and or elbows. Here is a link to the instructions for more information: https://media.deltafaucet.com/MandI/50353%20Rev%20J.pdf Best regards, Jon

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.

Thank you for your question, Batcave! The R10000-UNBX MultiChoice Universal valve does not control temperature but rather acts as a simple mixing valve. The pressure balanced 13/14/17 series cartridges as well as the T17T trims which include a TempAssure Thermostatic cartridge will keep the temperature between ±3° F (±1.6° C) at all times. Best regards, Edward

Hi Jayesh, Thank you for your question. Unfortunately, R10000-UNBX is not compatible with a sink faucet. Best Regards, Courtney

Hi Iku1, Thank you for your question. The motion of the handle will run from 3 o-clock (off) to 12 o-clock (full on). The faucet is equipped with a rotational limit stop where you set how hot the water can get. I have attached a link to a video to show you how to make this adjustment. Thanks, Dave http://www.deltafaucet.com/shopping-tools/research/video-gallery/video.html?v=n2_uZ7wgV1I&cat=

Thank you for your question. Delta Faucet model R10000-UNBX can be used for a shower only application by pluggin the tub port. Model number R10000-UNBXHF is for shower only applications and if you would like higher flow from your valve. If you already have the R10000-UNBX, you can use it for a shower only application.

Thank you for your question. The model number is not printed anywhere on our valves. If your contractor recently installed your Delta valve, it is a very good possibility that it is the R10000 series and the trim you are looking at will work just fine. In fact, with the R10000 series, you can change the trim as often as you like from the 1300/1400 to the 1700 series without going into the wall to change the valve.

Hi bkj03, The R10000 multichoice universal rough is made of brass. The rough will take our RP46074 single function pressure balanced cartridge, the RP46463 dual function pressure balanced cartridge, and the RP47201 dual function thermostatic cartridge. The cartridges use polymer seals, they are not ceramic. Thanks, Dave

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

Hi, Javier! Thank you for your question. The Delta Monitor BT13410-SS tub and shower trim kit does fit the Delta MultiChoice R10000 rough valve body. Best Regards, Rosanna

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

Thank you for your question, A.Luna! The screw driver stops are included with the valve. Best regards, Jon

Hi, Linda! Thank you for your question. The Delta MultiChoice Universal R10000-UNWS rough valve body works with any of our Delta 13/14, 17, and 17T series trim kits. We cannot guarantee that they will fit with other brand trim kits. The valve body does work with both shower head and tub spout installations. Best Regards, Rosanna

Hello 21James, Thank you for your question. The RP22734 is the bonnet nut/ring that holds the valve cartridge assembly in the Delta Universal MultiChoice Rough-In R10000-UNWS-3 valve assembly. Best regards, Tanya

Hi Kayla, Thank you for your question. The R10000-UNBX multichoice universal rough will not have any issues with a tankless water heater. We recommend using the valve with our 13/14 series trims with a single function pressure balanced cartridge or our 17 series trims with a dual function pressure balanced cartridge when using a tankless water heater. Thanks, Dave

Thank you for your question Wei! RP46074 is the correct cartridge for the Multichoice R10000-UNWS valve and the plasterguard should be flush or subflush 1/4" to the finished wall according to the installation manual. Distance from the stringer to the front of the plasterguard is 2-3/4" ± 1/4" (70 mm ± 6 mm). Distance from the stringer to the front of the bonnet is intended to be 3 7/8" (99 mm.) This is for reference only. If you need further assistance with this installation you can call us directly at 1-800-345-3358. Best regards, Edward
