You point out my big concern with Delta, I would venture to guess many people have the hand held on the right and in a 2 function setup. I am looking at using their 6 function diverter and plug position 2 so that the handle position is logical to the function that is active. Moen is almost as bad now with their M-Core, default on the top then the left then the right.

I assure you, there is NOTHING wrong with NOT doing plumbing at the end of the day. The leak Gremlins come out after dark and/ or right after you've left the premises. All may seem well UNTIL you leave and it's around 11 p.m. and the call/ text comes in. I do any and all soldering, and even Shark bite connections, (when I have no alternative), or Viega 1st thing in the morning. I leave the rough work open for several hours and inspect it periodically. Then mid day, at the soonest, I might consider covering it up. I made that mistake ONCE. That was enough and a lesson learned. Nice vid, thanks.

I have that unit in my new shower. I too liked it a lot. I just am wish they had the option to purchase it with pex fittings. A pet peeve of mine. The industry refers to that unit as a “valve” and the rest as a “trim kit”. Yet the trim kit comes with the cartridge and without a cartridge it is a “valve body”. It only becomes a valve with the cartridge installed. Some refer to it as a “rough in” and that may be more accurate.

At round 15 minutes in... cpvc will NOT get brittle unless UV light hits, for multiple days. Something like direct sunlight will ruin it, or vegetable oil, but under normal construction conditions, and a conscious effort to install that type of piping professionally, using it for a high rise situation is ideal. I highly recommend using it. It's easy to install, and the glue that's made for it cures in an hour under normal conditions. 19 minutes in, your sweat joints, and overall plumbing looks clean, 👌

I'm lost rn and all walls are closed and 100% done :( Any ideas what I'm doing or might have done wrong? i do a lot of plumbing and used many 3way and 4 way diverters with no issues usually they are the ones that are separate from main valve but i figured this was the same..

having those shut offs adds complexity and therefore an extra fail point. you should have a separate line going to the washroom, and you should have a proper manifold installed. and you should shut off the water at the manifold, not with these shut offs, which are going to be behind the trim once you install everything. I am right handed by the handheld function is hanging on the left for me, because it is pointing away from the door. I can still grab the handle with my right hand of course. also, I would be more scared to put copper soldered connection inside the wall than a sharkbite. but really, there should be no copper there at all, because it's the 21st century and we have PEX now.
