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.

The inner plastic cracked allowing water to bypass when attempting to divert.

Q&A
Is this faucet only for shower purposes or can I also take a bath? If so how to I stop the tub?
Thank you for question, Kayy! This diverting tub spout can be used in a tub and shower installation. The diverter on the tub spout pulls down to direct the water to the shower head. You will need to refer to the manufacture of your tub however the drain is typically a standard size and should work with our bath waste assembly RP393.

Is there a trim kit for the 1600 series in SS finish
I just purchased the RP17453SS and now I'm looking for the trim kit to go with it. Is there a part number that will work for the 1600 series?
Hi You have our Delta 1600 series tub/shower faucet. Unfortunately, the 1600 series has been discontinued since " 1994" and there are no current trims to fit the unit in the Stainless Steel finish. You will have to replace the entire unit and valve body behind your wall.
Best regards,
Brandis

How many gal per min is delta shower valve
Thank you for your question, Joeyt! The available flow rate will depend on the PSI available to the home as well as the trim selection and whether or not this is a tub spout installation only. 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.

we have a RP17453 in our bathroom.Guests at times can't figure out how to turn on the shower. When installed this came with a sticker to be installed on the spout where water flows into the tub. Can we get a replacement sticker from you?
Hello Michele,
Thank you for your question. The RP17829 and RP17472 are the stickers that inform others of how to use the RP17453. These stickers can be purchae from any local or online dealer that sells Delta products.

The item RP17453 is fit for pipe protruding 3.5" from the wall?
Thank you for your question, Raymond! This tub spout will sweat onto a smooth copper pipe extending 2 - 4" from the finished wall, or thread onto a 1/2" IPS nipple extending 5/8 - 1 5/8" from the finished wall.

How to make it divert water to shower?
Hello Kate !
Thank you for your question regarding the Delta Faucet DELTA® Pull-Down Diverter Tub Spout
MODEL#: RP17453NN!
I am sorry this information was not readily available, and I am happy to help you!
To activate the diverter assembly you must pull the front of the tub spout down which will activate the shower.

Hello, I am trying to replace the faucet in my tub, But the brass fitting it screws onto is larger than all of the standard size one's. When I measure the plastic thread hole in the old one, it measures 1 1/4" (inches)
Thank you for your question, JJWeb! RP17453 connects by either sweating onto 1/2" C.W.T. (copper water tube) or threading onto 1/2" IPS (iron pipe size). If your previous tub spout was installed onto another manufacturers adapter, this will need to be removed before using this tub spout.

Does this the 17453 faucet have a matching escutcheon? I have a 1/4" gap between the base of the faucet and the tub that I am trying to cover.
Thank you for your question. Delta Faucet model # RP17453 does not have a matching escutcheon. However, we do manufacture tub spouts that contain escutcheons that might work for your application. Both Delta Faucet models RP52148 and RP53419 have escutcheons.

How long of a 1/2" pipe stub is needed for the adapter?
The distance from the wall to the end of the 1/2" copper pipe on my bathtub is 1 1/4". Is this long enough to use with the brass adapter that comes with this Delta tub spout? If not, what is the recommended way to install the spout? I looked on-line for detailed installation instructions, but could not find any.
Hi AW, Thank you for your question. You will need at a minimum 1-1/2" and preferably 1-3/4" of copper to solder on the adapter. The only other option is if you can solder on a 1/2" copper male adapter keeping your overall length to 1-1/4" at the maximum, 1/2" at the minimum and then threading the tub spout adapter on.

do you sell 3/4 in. threaded diverters?
Hi Steve, Thank you for your question!
All of our tub spouts have 1/2 In connections.

will the spout work for my situation explained below?
My 1/2" copper pipe extends exactly 4" from the wall and has threads on the end. threads are 1/2' long. will the spout thread onto the pipe and be tight against the wall and be facing down?
Thank you for your question, Jack. The tub spout will thread onto a 1/2" pipe that extends 5/8" to 1 5/8" from the finished wall or sweat onto a 1/2" copper pipe that is 2" to 4".

I have an old Delta Tub spout that screwed on using this fitting will it fit on this?
Here is a photo of the old "stub" that is sweated on to a copper pipe. This is a 25 year old Delta 600 series tub set. I would like to fit a stainless steel tub spout on this without removing and replacing. Open to other spout models in stainless.
Thank you for your question. Delta Faucet model # RP17453SS can either be sweat onto a 1/2" copper pipe or threaded onto a 1/2" iron pipe. It does include an adapter assembly.

Does this replace an old 600 series pull down faucet without altering the copper plumbing?
"W e are replacing our tub fixtures to nickel or stainless (Delta 600 series). Our current pull down diverter faucet is 6" long, and looks like the drawing. When the spout is removed, the copper pipe comes out 3" with an o ring on the end. The screw fixture is about 1" from the wall. Will this spout fit directly on the current copper pipe as described, i.e. is this a direct oem replacement for the old spout or will it require changeing the copper pipe.
Thank you for your question. Delta Faucet model # RP17453NN can be used on your current pipe. You should be able to remove the adapter from your new tub spout and screw it onto where the old one was placed.

The pipe is 3 inches, the whole pipe is threaded which is rare. I have a hard time finding a fit, the old faucet was a delta that looks like a slip on design but somehow also fit this pipe by keep twisting it in. Can this fit?
Hi, Nicole!
Thank you for your question. The Delta RP17453 Tub Spout Assembly is designed to sweat onto a smooth copper pipe extending 2 - 4" from the finished wall, or thread onto a 1/2" IPS nipple extending 5/8 - 1 5/8" from the finished wall. Our Delta RP5836 Tub Spout does slip on to a 1/2" C.W.T. Here is a link to this option:

this model faucet has failed for the second time. 6 mo ago it leaked back past the o ring and threads and into the wall, damaging my ceiling. I replaced it with another delta. it just did it again. Is there another one with brass threads internally?
Hi, Brian.
Thank you for your question, and I am sorry to hear that you are experiencing a leak at your Delta tub spout. We do have another tub spout that works with the brass adapter. The part is RP19820. Here is a link to the unit on our website:

Which model would you recommend to replace faucet # RP17453, if I do not need a diverter? I have one in my tub that is stuck in the down position, but I do not need a diverter because the shower is a separate stall and has its own water supply.
Hi Donna,
Thank you for your inquiry! We do not make a non diverter tub spout that is designed exactly like the RP17453 one. However, we do manufacture several different non-diverter spouts, please the link below.

Is there a oil bronze replacement spout for the RP17453 with the RP12307 adapter?
Hi Calvin,
Unfortunately we do not have a replacement spout in the oil rubbed bronze finish with an RP12307 adapter. We do have an alternate tub spout in Venetian Bronze which is similar that works with the RP12307 adapter. The model number is RP34357RB. http://www.deltafaucet.com/bath/details/rp34357rb.html?showPhotoGallery=false

Can I use RP17453 to replace a spout?
I have a 3-3/4" threaded iron nipple. Will I be able to install this RP17453 without cutting the pipe? If not what other Delta spout can I use instead? Thanks.
Hi Art, Thank you for your question. The adapter used on the RP17453 tub spout requires that the pipe nipple extend beyond the finished wall between 5/8" to 1-5/8". Our tub spouts like the model RP63157 that the nipple threads into the nose of the spout require 3-7/8" to 4" of pipe from the finished wall.
Thanks,
Dave

I'm installing a new RP17453 (plastic) tub spout to replace our 16-year old one that just started leaking. Is it necessary to use teflon tape before screwing the plastic threaded part onto our copper pipe? Instructions don't say, but our old one didn't.
Hello Lori,
Thank you for your inquiry! The Delta Pull-Down Diverter Tub spout RP17453 does not need any putty or tape with installing it on the brass adapter/pipe.

Can I replace the spout by itself or do i have to replace the entire set?
I laid the toilet brush across my tub spout to dry out and it has tarnished the finish (see photos). My landlord says the spout, handle and shower head all have to be replaced and a plumber has to do it. I think the spout should be relatively simple to replace. Can I just purchase a replacement spout and install it without having to go into the entire shower set-up? Or, is there a product I can purchase that will clean the tarnish/discoloration and return it to "normal"? As you can see from the photos, the water is hard and the fixtures are already spotted with mineral deposits. Help! Please?!!! Thank you sooo much!
Thank you for your questions. We would recommend replacing just the tub spout. Delta Faucet part #RP17453 can be purchased and installed (instructions are included with the packaging).

Hi, is the Delta RP17454 interchangeable with the RP17453 and what are the benefits of each? Thanks
Thank you for your question. Delta Faucet part # RP17454 and Delta Faucet part # RP17453 are interchangeable. The difference between the two is that RP17454 is metal and RP17453 is non-metallic. It is a personal preference for the consumer to pick one.
