PRODUCT FEATURES
Dual-function valve cartridge maintains a consistent water temperature from one shower to the next. Monitors water pressure to balance temperature. All Delta® tub and shower faucets are engineered to keep the water temperature within a safe ±3.6° F (±1.7° C)*. This technology makes sure your family doesn’t experience a sudden and possibly unsafe change in water temperature as a result of running water elsewhere, such as using a dishwasher, flushing a toilet or running a washing machine. The valve cartridge features an adjustable handle limit stop that, when properly set, helps ensure the handle cannot be turned to a position that is too hot for comfort*. Easily replaced seals make maintenance a snap. Comes with all Delta pressure balance tub and shower faucets. *Requires inlet water temperature be set correctly. May require seasonal adjustments.
  • Monitor® dual-function pressure balance cartridge
  • Use with Monitor® 1700/1800 Series tub & showers produced before March 2007
  • Allows for separate volume and temperature control
  • Also works with 1500 Series produced after 1995

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Delta RP32104 I am using a licensed plumber and we are on my 4th RP32104 in 8 months. The first one we replaced to replace a gasket and that stopped the leak but after a month or so the handle spins around 360 and won't shut off the watter. I am not at all forceing or turning the handle with force because this cartridge cost $85 and I have purchased 4. I cannot change the housing without breaking tile and cuting the copper pipes but this is a bad design. Obviously Delta has changed the design because the old one lasted 17 years. This tiny square is the only thing that stops the handel from spinning around 360 and it keeps breaking. Can you help? This tiny

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Excellent customer service I purchased my delta faucets over 20 years ago and when they required repair, I was worried I was not going to be able to find parts. I was able to identify the part number and order through customer service, so I am relieved I don't have to buy new fixtures...I will say that I had a similar issue with another brand, and theirs was warrantied for life, so that replacement has no charge...Wish delta had the same policy-but I am happy to be able to find the correct part.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Delta shower faucet cartridge. Installed easily after all water supply shut off. Works well. Stopped the dripping. Was a bit difficult to find the right cartridge- faucet installed many years ago and no model number visible, even after disassembly.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Delta RP32104 Cartridge Assembly - Monitor® 17 Series Cartridge works great and included parts so I could use the 17 series shower parts on a 15 series control. Instructions were a little confusing and had to use a little trial and error to figure it out.

The cartridge included in the new kit would not be able to install, but the new handle will fit the existing cartridge. An RP32104 cartridge would not fit a 144984C-OB-A trim kit.
