Rated 5 out of 5 by from Stylish Shower Faucet Delta product are always quality and this one is no exception. Instructions are easy to follow and it looks good once installed. The separate temperature lever is a great idea, set your temperature once and use the second lever to control the water flow. Stylish and looks amazing in our shower.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Dual purpose I love that you can adjust the temperature and water pressure separately with this. It is fairly simple to install with a little basic handyman man experience and knowledge. Works great! Definitely enjoy being able to control the water pressure especially while showering

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Short-lived cartridges I have been a both a Delta installer and customer since the mid-1990's. I had trusted them and recommended them to customers time after time. In 2015, I remodeled the bathrooms in our home and replaced the original construction Moen faucets and valves with Delta products. In the master bath, I installed the Lahara 1700 series valve and trim. To date, I have been forced to replace the cartridge assembly four times. That is four times in 3-1/2 years. At an average of $56 per replacement, I have now spent more replacing the cartridges than I paid for the valve to begin with. The Moen valve that was original to the home was still operating perfectly with the original inner workings and had never been repaired or replaced. The Moen was still functioning properly after 22 years of daily use. The Delta, on the other hand, averaged just 328 days of use before the cartridge required replacement. After contacting Delta customer service the first time, I was told that it was potentially my water quality (treated city water) causing the problem. The second time, I received the same diagnosis. I gave up after the third time as the other valves in my home are working flawlessly. I would not recommend this valve and at this time have stopped recommending Delta to my customers as well.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Great pressure balanced unity, but more of a plastic feel [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It does its job and has a solid cartridge. It does feel more on the plastic end for me. If that isn't an issue, I recommend this as a reliable valve kit unit.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Great looking and a great value [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are hard to beat. Simple, good looking and reasonably priced. I have them in brushed stainless and oil rubbed bronze. Definitely not as sturdy as my Moen but much less expensive and a simpler design.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Great feature of independently controlling the flow and temperature! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought for remodel, finish is brilliance stainless,, looks great and love the feature to control flow independently of the temperature control. Nice simple look. Only drawback is that it water spots after a shower.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Love the temp and pressure control [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got this Delta faucet about 1 year ago while remodeling our master bathroom. I love the ability to control the temperature, as well as, control the pressure of the water. Sometimes I don't wash my hair and need a lighter pressure so it doesn't get all wet. My only complaint is the finish looks kind of yellow. I believe I got the stainless steel or whatever this faucet's version of that is. It is more gold or yellow than all my other finishes.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from For the control freak [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this several months ago and I'm happy with my purchase. The valve allows control of volume and temperature. Nice chrome finish. It stays shiny and just needs to be dried after showering. Would have like the temp control knob to be of metal instead of plastic.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Master Bathroom Re-model We are re-modeling our master bathroom and have not installed this product as of yet. We bought this product because of the dual function. We really like the fact than you can control the volume.
Date published: 2014-07-13
Rated 5 out of 5 by from basic features as close to a basic handle style and design that we were looking for. Not to impressed by the extra handle for temperature regulation, you still have to wait for the hot water to come through the pipes. Keep it easy, one handle for on/off and temperature regulation.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great for retrofit of a 13/14 series handle I was replacing one of the 13/14 series handles -- the kind that turns on cold and then you turn it towards hot. Note that this contains the cartridge part number RP46463, so if you already have the rough-in valve body in the wall, this is what you need. Take off the 13/14 trim, pull out the cartridge, install the adapter part that screws into the valve body, put in the new cartridge, and install the new trim. Now you have independent temperature and flow volume control. It is great for saving water.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Smart Fixture Selected the Lahara series based on looks, functionality was the added bonus! My plumber recommended that I buy the Delta 17000 series because the temperature can be set and left in place so it's always the right temp.
Date published: 2011-09-18
Rated 3 out of 5 by from trade offs... I bought this unit to replace a Delta Windemere faucet. The trade off is getting the ability to control water temp, but with a shorter range of flow for water volume. Also, the way the mechanism works, you can get cold water at any volume, but only hot water at high volume. The temp control handle also moves with the volume control handle, so the water gets colder whenever you adjust the flow. We will learn to live with it, but I wish it was not so restrictive.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Valve Trim double handle Excellent customer service. They were able to find the trim package for the faucet already installed in the wall. Overnight delivery. Worked perfectly.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from good quality valve trim Nice simple design. It wasn't exactly what I needed though, so I had to return it and buy the Delta T17038-SS Lahara Double Handle Pressure Balanced Valve Trim Only with Metal. There were no problems with the return.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Nice product Looks very nice and performs perfectly. Installation instructions were not that good, especially the illustrations.

Q&A

How do I get the water hotter 

Asked by: Dave39
Hi, Dave39! Thank you for your question. There is a rotational limit stop (RLS) at the temperature control to adjust the hot water limit. To adjust the RLS, first remove the temperature cover and take a phillips head screw driver and turn the set screw counter clockwise to remove. Remove the gray knob. Behind the knob, you should see a black disk. Take the disk and take it out and place the disk to the hotter side. The hot side should be up against the iron piece that is sticking down on the volume handle. Once adjusted, reinstall all handle parts. Best Regards, Rosanna

How is the temperature knob removed? I can only find installation instructions, not removal. It's very lightweight plastic, and I don't want to snap anything by removing it incorrectly. I'd like to adjust the temperature. Thank you.

Asked by: KimM
Hello KimM, Thank you for your question. The front temperature dial of the Delta Lahara Valve Trim T17038-SS model can be removed by grasping the peice on either side of the part and squeezing together gently. Then grasp the small handle and pull the cover off. You can also use a flathead screwdriver to pry it off. Best regards, Tanya

Is the T17038-SS for SHOWER ONLY application? No Tub. Will the R1000-UNBX valve work for shower only? THANKS!

Asked by: Al
Thank you for your question. Delta Faucet model # T17038-SS is a valve only model and the R10000-UNBX will work for it. We do offer a shower only model that includes the shower head. It is Delta Faucet model # T17238-SS.

Is the 3 setting Diverter Trim Kit T11800SS the same Brilliance Stainless finish as the Lahara Monitor 17 Series Trim Kit T17038SS?

I see in an earlier question and answer that the recommended 3-setting Diverter Trim Kit to go with the Lahara Monitor 17 Series Valve Trim (T17038SS) is the (T11800SS) from the Innovations Collection. That one shows "Stainless Steel" as the finish, as opposed to the "Brilliance Stainless" finish on the Lahara Collection. Are they the exact same finish?
Asked by: Diane
Hi Diane, Thank you for your question. The T11800-SS is the matching diverter trim to the model T17038-SS valve only trim. Both trims are our (SS) brilliance stainless finish. Thanks, Dave

The Lahara Monitor 17 series valve only trim. Does that come with the cartridge and new springs and O-rings?

Asked by: Bill
Thank you for your question! Yes, the trim will include the necessary cartridge and seals for a MultiChoice R10000 valve. If you are using an pre-2006 1700 Series valve, you will need to use the original cartridge or a new RP32104 Cartridge & Seals. Best regards, Jon

How does 17094 compare with 17038?

How does 17094 compare with 17038 other than appearance? Are they comparable as far as features? The descriptions are presented differently but seem to be the same. Thank you.
Asked by: hawaii808
Thank you for your question. Delta Faucet model # 17094 and 17038 function exactly the same. The only difference is the style of the series looks different between the two models.
