Well crafted replacement tub spout
This tub spout is beautifully finished chrome and was a perfect (and better) replacement for the original. The shower diverter seals completely so there is no water waste leaking out into the tub.

Exact Replacement
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This tub spout was an exact match for the one I needed to replace. It was perfect.

Effective Delta Diverter Tub Spout
Was concerned that this unit was plastic but it is solid and operates very effectively. Seals/diverts well with virtually no leakage and easy to install. Metal version is available if you're concerned about the construction.

Great Design
Much better than the sprout it replaces. My old sprout has a pull-up diverter which would not stay "up" over time resulting in water wastage when showering. This pull-down diverter works very well (snaps in place when pulled) as "down" activates the diverter, delivering flow to the above shower head. Kit comes with an adapter to mount on 1/2" copper pipe. Sprout and adapter are well made and packaged. Instructions are clear. Installation is easy, did not take more than 15 minutes for a novice.

Q&A
My old spout has a brass "sleeve" andd is soldered to the 1/2" copper pipe. Will the rp5836 spout work or is it another product?
The old spout looked identical to this one. All of the other spouts I see for sale have a threaded 1/2" attachment.
Hi Jhowell,
Thank you for your question. This spout comes with a slip on adapter, RP33794. The threaded/sweat-on adapter is RP12307, which comes with the RP17453 tub spout. However, either tub spout will fit as the spout itself is compatible with both adapters.

Can I use this to replace RP5834?
I do not like the design of RP5834 and would like to replace with the RP5836
You can use this as long as you have a 1/2" copper nipple coming out of the wall for the tub spout. If it's threaded IPS or bigger than 1/2" this would not work for you. This spout attaches with a set screw.

I am looking for a traditional tub spout with pull down diverter in brushed SS or nickel. I can't seem to find it?

Can the pull-down diverter be removed from the spout to remove foreign material?
I had some plumbing work done at my home, and now the water flow from the spout is reduced. I believe some foreign material is causing a partial blockage at the diverter.
The diverted itself can be removed and cleaned

My tub has a 1/2" threaded pipe with 4" stub-out. Will this RP5836 fit?
Thank you for your question! The RP5836 spout is installed with a slip-on connection for 1/2" copper pipe.

Is this a compatible replacement for RP17454?
Hi Chris,
Thank you for your question about the Delta Faucet RP5836 tub spout. This would fit the adapter used by RP17454, or the included adapter can be used with a copper pipe.
RP5836 includes an adapter for a sweat or slip-on connection. RP17454 and RP17453 include an adapter for a sweat or threaded connection. But these spouts can fit either adapter.
Please reach out with any additional questions!
Best Regards,
Bryan

I purchased RP17453 to replace a metal version of the same appearance. I was very disappointed to find the RP17453 is plastic and not metal. Is there a metal version of this design still available?
RP5836 (or similar) my tub’s diverter pull down no longer stays in place, making showering impossible. A handy man got it back on, but it hasn’t stayed. Is there a diverter with a pull up knob could use to replace this one?

What is the flow rate for the RP17453 tub spout with diverter?
Hi Mike,
Thank you for your question about the Delta Faucet RP17453.
The tub spout is not designed to limit the water flow and the flow rate will depend on the valve and trim used and on the home water pressure. From 4.9 GPM to 9.8 GPM.

Where can I find installation instructions for model RP5836 in order to retrofit to the current plumbing structure?
My RP5836 leaks at the wall and from the sound of it into the wall when the diverter is pulled down. Unscrewing the spout reveals a part copper, part plastic slip-on adapter. Copper end has hex nut, plastic end has o-ring and threads. What's the fix?
Hello blazeface,
Thank you for your question about the Delta Faucet model RP5836 Tub Spout. I apologize there is a leak. I know that can be frustrating. We are happy to help!
I recommend replacing the RP33794 slip-on adapter as the o-rings may have worn over time.

The adapter that is included with RP17453 does not work with a 1/2” nipple protruding from wall 5/8” as shown on the package. The included adapter thread starts 5/8” deep into the adapter! I had to reuse the adapter from the old spout.
I do not have the standard 1/2" size does this model come in any larger sizes.
Hi John,
Thank you for your question about the Delta Faucet RP5836. This tub spout fits a 1/2" copper pipe.

The adaptor provided does not work for my situation. It is too small to fit on the pipe coming out of the wall and the faucet without the adaptor is too large. I think the pipe from the wall is 3/4" ipt. Is there another adaptor or faucet that works?

Thank you for contacting Delta Faucet Company!
Our RP5836 uses the slip-on adapter, RP33794. Our Delta tub spouts either slip on onto 1/2" C.W.T. or thread onto 1/2" IPS.

I have a Delta tub faucet that looks like the RP 5836 and it's the same size. A Plumber installed it but did not leave the manual. It been almost 20 years since installation. Has this model always been a slip-on or was it an IPS. I don't see a screw.

I received a RP5834. I am not sure how it installs. I don't see a set screw, so what holds it on and does it have to be installed on a copper pipe? I used cpvc for all rough-in valve connections with a brass 1/2" tthreaded drop ell.
