Bad Change
I have read previous review, and I am seeing similar issues, I replaced the same faucet with a new that had worked for a number of years. I initially thought that I was not installing properly, but I cannot get the new faucet to stop leaking, I wasted $40 at Ace, now I am looking for a different option.

No set screw for a 80 diverted basic faucet
Didn’t come with set screw and ahit straight off the pipe! Can only replace delta with delta and they can’t even make their own stuff work with the items that are out in by contractors. So annoyed.

Ours has lasted.
We have had ours for 27 years and only now do we need to replace it. I’m looking for the part and hoping the newer ones last as long.

Excellent spout!
In the past several months I did some updates to my shower. I recently got a Moen Verso showerhead, and I wanted my Delta valve trim and spout to aesthetically match my showerhead in style. For the valve trim I went with the Delta Modern Series.
For the spout, I went with this one with the pull-down diverter. It has a nice modern design that seems to go well with my valve trim and showerhead. It fit right onto my existing Delta adapter with ease. The best part about this spout is that the diverter completely seals while showering, resulting in higher shower pressure. I would definitely recommend this spout if you want to improve your shower pressure.

Don’t buy
Had installed for less than a year and it leaks out when trying to shower. Go with something that has less plastic components.

Awesome product & service
I've had this tub spout 3 yrs and noticed issues with the finish when I removed it to work on the shower grout. After contacting customer service, Daishana handled it smoothly and in a professional and quick manner. The spout has been exceptional with no issues and I highly recommend it, Also, their customer care group is always outstanding!

The diverter allows allot of water to leak
My 15 yr old tub spout diverter started squealing and needed replaced. You would think you could access the O-rings inside this reliable spout but I was told it has to be replaced. Got the pull down one and when activated it isn’t stopping the water flow. Please go back to the old 1990 style Delta.

If I already have a wall mounted tub spout with a diverter, is it as simple as removing the one there and installing the new one. Or is it more to it than a screw off and screw on?
Hi Phillyboy,
Thank you for your question about the Delta Faucet tub spout model RP17453SS.
This is installed with the RP12307 adapter. If you already have a Delta tub spout with a similar adapter, you can install the new tub spout without changing the adapter. Or, the adapter fits 1/2" threads or sweat to 1/2" copper pipe.
See the INSTALLATION WITH SWEAT/THREAD ON ADAPTER section here for more information:

How do I clean water spots from this stainless water spout - mine has white water spots that I can't get out.
Hello JB207,
Thank you for contacting Delta Faucet Company! I am sorry this information was not readily available, and I am happy to help you!
Always blot dry any water from the faucet surface. Allowing water to evaporate on the surface can lead to a build-up of mineral deposits. Cleaning with a damp non-abrasive sponge and buffing it dry with a clean soft cloth should help keep your product looking beautiful. To remove water spots, use warm water and a soft, damp cloth. Hard water stains may be removed using a 50/50 solution of white vinegar and water. Make certain that you rinse the surface thoroughly with water afterward.
I have also included a link to our “How to clean your faucet” on our website, please see the link below.

When I pull down on the faucet water leaks out and the shower head doesn’t throw water out. How would I fix this ?
Hi Rhino,
Thank you for your question about the Delta Faucet RP17453.
If water trickles out of the showerhead, the showerhead may be on the pause setting. Change the spray setting or check with the showerhead removed.
Pulling down on the tub spout diverter should stop the flow from the tub spout so that the water goes to the showerhead instead. If the tub spout is not stopping the flow, the tub spout would need to be replaced.
Please reach out for further assistance or with any additional questions!

What’s the gpm
Hello Jordan,
Thank you for your question! I am happy to help you!
The flow rate will depend on the PSI available to the home as well as the trim selection. For example, a standard Delta MultiChoice Universal rough-in such as the R10000-UNBX can produce anywhere between 4.9gpm at 40psi for a tub port only 13/14 series trim up to 9.0gpm at 80psi using the tub port only T17T trim
