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

Hi Charlie, With the R10000-UNBX, you will need to use the updated Multi Choice cartridge. The new cartridge that is the equivalent of your current cartridge is part number RP46074. If you are going to be purchasing a new trim kit to go with the new valve, a new cartridge will come in that trim kit.

Thank you for your question. PEX products can be used with Delta Faucet model # R10000-UNBX but not between the valve and the tub spout. The only things you can use between the valve and the tub spout are copper pipe or iron pipe. If you use PEX in between those two points, you will get shower rise where water comes out of the showerhead when you are using the tub only.

Thank you for your inquiry, Nick! Any of the Delta 13, 14, 17, or 17T series trim kits that we currently make will work with this Delta MultiChoice Universal Rough-In R10000-UNBX valve. Trim-only kits will begin with the letter "T". https://www.deltafaucet.com/bathroom/bathing Best regards, Tanya

Thank you for your question. Since you are mounting this on a fiberglass shower, we would recommend using the R10000-UNWSBXT for a thin wall mounting.

Hi, Sonda! Thank you for your question. The Delta MultiChoice Universal R10000-UNBXT rough valve body will work with any of our T13, T14, T17, and T17T series trim kits. Here is a link to these options: https://www.deltafaucet.com/bathroom/showering/tub-and-shower-faucets Best Regards, Rosanna

Hi Patti, Thank you for your interest in our products. There is no way to adapt/convert another brand of faucet into a Delta. You would have to change the rough in behind the wall as well. The R10000UNWSBXT is one of our multichoice universal roughs. Once this rough is installed you can choose any of the Delta tub/shower trims to fit this rough in valve. Our T17 series trims offer separate temperature and volume control and are available in a variety of styles and finishes. Thanks, Dave

Hi Dmead009, Thank you for your question. The R10000-UN multichoice universal rough uses our 13/14 series cartridge RP46074, our 17 series dual function cartridge RP46463, and our 17T thermostatic cartridge RP47201. You need the appropriate trim that matches each cartridge. Thanks, Dave

Hello Gawu, Thank you for your question. The R10000-UNWS MultiChoice Universal Rough Valve Body takes multiple valve cartridge assemblies. If you purchased a Monitor T13 or T14 Series trim kit, you will need RP46074 (included with the trim kit). The RP19804 will not work/fit into the R10000-UNWS valve. Best regards, Tanya

Hello Craig, Thank you for your question, Craig! We recommend installing/mounting the Delta MultiChoice Universal Rough-In Valve R10000-UNBX with the plasterguard so that it is even with the finished wall. Best regards, Tanya

Thank you for your question, Tony! The screen is only needed when flushing the valve during installation. It can be discarded once the cartridge is installed. Best regards, Jon

Thank you for your question, Diane! I'm sorry for any confusion or inconvenience and we are happy to help. The Woodhurst collection does not offer a thermostatic trim at this time. Below is a link to our current thermostatic trim kits. Please feel free to contact us directly if you have questions or need further assistance with this part. https://www.deltafaucet.com/bathroom/showering?ValveType=Dual-function+thermostatic+cartridge Best regards, Edward

Hi, Jeff. Thank you for your question. The distance requirement from the finished wall to the stringer on the Delta MultiChoice Universal R10000-UNBX rough valve body is 2 3/4" ± 1/4" (70 mm ± 6 mm). Here is a link to the instruction manual for the valve body: https://media.deltafaucet.com/MandI/X00050353_J.pdf Best Regards, Rosanna

Hi, Hugh! Thank you for your question. The screw stops on the R10000-UNWS will stop turning when fully open. You can turn the stops clockwise up to three full turns from the open position without a noticeable reduction in flow. Best Regards, Rosanna

Thank you for your question! All "UN" versions of the R10000 valve will have connections that accept 1/2" thread or 1/2" sweat. The UNBXT version includes a thin wall mounting kit, which the UNBX does not. If you have the trim kit, the escutcheon plate and the plaster guard provide enough support for the valve so that the thin wall kit is not needed. Best regards, Jon

Thank you for your question. I apologize that you are having an issue and by your description, it sounds like you are having shower rise. This can occur when any of the following situations are not followed: 1) The distance between the tub spout and valve has to be between 8"-18". 2) Copper or iron pipe is the only thing that can be used between the tub spout and the valve. 3) There can only be one elbow from the valve to the tub spout. If any of these are not followed, you will have shower rise until the problem is corrected.

Dear Eddie, Thank you for your inquiry! The Delta MultiChoice Universal Rough-In Valve R10000-UNBX contains a plasterguard that is used in aiding the installation of your faucet. It is not necessary to the functionality of the faucet. If you choose not to use the plastergaurd as a guide to cut the hole, please make sure that the hole is large enough to access the screw holes for the trim plate. Best regards, Tanya

Hi, Jason. Thank you for your question! The top port can be capped and the bottom port can be used for a hand shower unit on the Delta MultiChoice Universal R10000-UNBX Rough In Valve Body. Best Regards, Rosanna

Hello Scott, Thank you for your question. The Delta MultiChoice Universal Rough-In R10000-UNBX is the valve body that your hot and cold water supplies connect to and it holds the valve cartridge, which controls your shower or tub and shower trim on/off and temperature. Please feel free to call, email, or message us on social, if there is anything else you need.

Dear Stev, Thank you for your inquiry! The Delta MultiChoice Universal Valve R10000-UNBX can be use for a shower only installation. You would need to cap off the bottom port of the valve. Best regards, Tanya

Hi Carlos, Thank you for your question! The water flow and temperature is controlled by the cartridge, which will be included with the trim kit that you choose. Here is a link to the installation instructions for the valve: https://media.deltafaucet.com/MandI/50353%20Rev%20I.pdf Best regards, Jon

Thank you for your question. Delta Faucet model # R10000-UNBX can be used with CPVC as long as the piping between your tub spout and the valve is copper. The CPVC can be used everywhere else.

Thank you for your question, Dwillhite98. This valve will work with any current 13/14, 17, or 17T Series trim kit. It will not work with an existing 1500 Series unit. Best regards, Jon

Hi Dan, Thank you for your question! The escutcheon plate that comes with the trim kit will have a gasket that seals against the wall. You can browse our trim kit selection by clicking the link below. http://www.deltafaucet.com/bath/tubshower/filter.html Thanks, Jon

Hello Mark, Thank you for your inquiry! The faucet body, lift rod, and handle of the Delta Haywood Lavatory 15999-SS-DST model are metal.

Hi, KhrisB! Thank you for your question. The Delta part number RP46074 is for the 13/14 series trim. The Delta RP46463 is for the 1700 series trim. Best regards, Themar

Thank you for your question. Delta Faucet model # R10000-UNBX is recommended for only Delta Faucet trims. We do not recommend using them with other brands.

Thank you for your question, Craftydad! The R11000 diverting valve can be used with a 6-setting cartridge to allow you to switch between three individual products or ports with independent as well as shared positions. If two of the body sprays are used on the same port, then you will not need another valve. The diverter rough will switch between these sprays, the shower head, as well as the third spray both by themselves as well as in shared functions. This will also work if you are wanting all of the sprays on one setting. You will only need a 3-setting diverter cartridge for that type of installation in which you can use the shower head and sprays alone or at the same time. Please feel free to contact us directly if you have any questions or need further assistance with this model. https://media.deltafaucet.com/MandI/70551%20Rev%20F.pdf Best regards, Edward

Hi gazzerp, Thank you for your question. In your shower only application you can use pex tubing on the connection from the upside down tub port to the R110000 diverter rough. Thanks, Dave

Thank you for your question, Fugacity! Model R10000-UN is sold as a quantity of twelve (12) whereas the R10000-UNBX is single box model. Best regards, Edward

Thank you for your question, dman97! The plaster guard can be left in place or removed in a standard installation. It is primarily used as a guide for cutting the hole in the wall but is used as a support in thin wall installations. Best regards, Jon
