DELTA SHOWER VALVE UPGRADE WITH HAND HELD

[@pirihern9329]

I have to do the same . Replace old delta with new. You gave me much needed confidence. Thank you sir

[@walterbordett2023]

Great video Tim. Street ells and slip couplings are great problem solvers. Good camera work and clear explanations.

[@chadmccormick1412]

Hey Walter. I like the fact you call them “ells” and not 90’s, not that it’s a bad thing. My dad always called them Street or regular ells, lol! He was the best/greatest plumber I ever knew!

[@ambrosefreeman64]

I concur.... now let me try..

[@PolskaBabii]

Thank you for doing a switch out with copper I keep finding new construction with Pex and I’m converting a tub to walk in shower with a house built in 80s with copper. This is exactly what I needed.

[@Rusvul]

Nice video with clear explanations. I just recently disassembled a setup very much like this because the seats and springs on the cartridge were worn and causing a drip, and from that experience I would suggest putting a bit of anti-seize grease on the two long screws holding the face plate on and the small hex screw holding the handle on. Those things can get locked in there real tight. 10 years down the line someone will thank you for taking that little extra step when they have to disassemble things. 👍

[@johnfleming68]

Thank you Tim for the show I'm getting ready to do mine I have the same problem no access to the back have to do everything in the front with plate

[@mariarusso3790]

Hello John how are you doing today. Hope you have a nice weekend 😊

[@csflmich2239]

Thank you for sharing. You did an exceptional job filming, especially in tight quarters. Well done.

[@plumbbuild6517]

Tim great video and you always do a good job explaining what's going on while you're doing your job, you did everything right, I usually install the new shower arm blow the system full throttle with water to remove any settlement and then I'll put a cap on the arm and pressure the system to make sure no slow dripping going on behind the wall because even a slow leak can cause destruction over time , but I'm working on wood framing 90 percent of the time. Thanks for sharing this video and please keep making them , there like frosted flakes ,there great lol 😆.

[@PLUMBINGWITHTIM]

Thanks pal I really appreciate you stopping in Take care

[@tommytwo9051]

It takes a lot of talent to solder in such a tight space. I’m very impressed that nothing caught on fire.

[@rickkelly1241]

I love that 10000 valve. Just did one today. Patience and determination to overcome. My definition for plumbing...

[@davidmancilla2186]

Just a suggestion Tim not really criticism because you did a great job it looks good. But I have also done this in the past where I leave a 1/2” brass cap on that bottom piece but what I’ve started doing is I’ll just soder on a cap now it gives me further piece of mind that there won’t be any leaks at all. But you’re way works great too that Teflon and pipe dope will hold. And I feel like the small nub on the top end of the valve seemed a bit short but it’s not too crazy pressurized water going through there and it’s only for about 10 minutes at a time so you’ll be fine but I get nervous when I have a small nub like that personally. But I always enjoy watching your videos Tim thank you for putting them out for us.

[@notsohandytim5090]

Hey Tim. Nice to meet you Tim. I think this is the one Tim. Thanks Tim. From Tim.

[@mariarusso3790]

Hello Tim how are you doing today. Hope you have a nice weekend 😊

[@PLUMBINGWITHTIM]

Thanks for watching

[@MaxJackson1975]

This was perfect. Dealing with a situation exactly like this. Thanks for making this video.

[@PLUMBINGWITHTIM]

Thanks for watching

[@pirihern9329]

Great job. You make it look easy

[@randyriggs5463]

Looked pretty good! I would have been afraid of laying my hands open. Done it before!

[@RichardRoth-xg7bh]

A great, all American plumbing video!

[@bullmoosepiper7732]

Good job Tim in a very tight space. It's almost like you knew what you were doing. 🙂 I was waiting for the sliced knuckle on that rough tile edge.

[@PLUMBINGWITHTIM]

Appreciate it

[@Straycurrent]

Looked pretty to me ..... like it was done by a pro 😊. Nice video.

[@eddyherrera6326]

Thanks man! In real life all this stuff isnt set up on a table with ac on....its just like this video here.. and getting it done Correctly is still the game plan. Sum just cant perform in jacked up Situations...Respects!!!

[@jestito5699]

Great job Tim Thanks for sharing the video.

[@alessandrobrutale8309]

You ARE a pro! I wish you all your waking hours busy with work. 🤑🤑🤑

[@haroldfowler4382]

Love your videos.

[@mariarusso3790]

Hello Harold how are you doing today. Hope you have a nice weekend 😊

[@mattbrooker6303]

Good job Tim, but I think you put the the hose for the sprayer on backwards.

[@PLUMBINGWITHTIM]

I wouldn’t doubt it

[@adamb5404]

Awesome . Exactly what I needed to see.

[@williambutler2177]

Great video! Told me what I wanted to know (hire a pro to replace mine). I am curious why you didn't cap the bottom before installing. I would think it'd be easier outside the tiny hole.

[@richk1107]

Great video. CAn I ask you what type of sheetrock I should use to repair the wall?

[@huaguangwang3421]

great video! thanks!! I have a question: does the O-ring need to stay in the groove? or just let it slide into the end of the valve? 9 min 23s of the video. Thanks

[@shaundonovan2193]

That's a mechanic install. Nice job

[@PLUMBINGWITHTIM]

Thanks for watching

[@shovelhead8]

Nice unit and a great job, Tim. Stay safe and stay cool

[@PLUMBINGWITHTIM]

Take care Sean

[@TALONTEDGUY]

Oh, the dreaded bonnet nut. How dare you not grease that dang thing and the handle set screw!. Lol. Lastly, if I change out the shower arm, I always let water blow through it and clear it before I install a new head. Clear the debris. Looks good.

[@PLUMBINGWITHTIM]

Thanks for watching

[@Lawomenshoops]

Is it overkill for a homeowner to add water shutoffs at the shower?

[@mfahad24]

Doesnt the delta valve need to be groud to something? I mean is it required?

[@xuanhan7495]

I am facing this issue- we are renovating the bathrooms, the constructors put new delta valve for the two bathrooms and the day after that we noticed kitchen cold tab is having warm/hot water. The constructors stated that he didn’t touch kitchen so it’s not his issue; but this only happened after he put on new valves for the new bathrooms, not they are still at demo stage, I don’t know how to find which valve is causing the issue

[@DanielMartinez-hi4zq]

That was amazing thanks for the video man.

[@xxvodanhxx]

Last time the bonnet assembly was replaced in the delta what happened ?

[@doroteozetina5392]

Can you please tell mi what model no is the catrige for this valve

[@booifojoe]

Love seeing a pro in action. Learned a lot. Question: I just wrestled for hours removing my delta cartridge and was told to grease up the new one on the sides and o-rings for the inevitable replacement. Did you do that (and not show it) or do you have some other trick to avoid the sticking cartridge problem?

[@jellybean11forty]

Very nice Install, how many man hours do typically charge from something like this? No worries if you prefer to keep that private. Great video.

[@elbaron51]

How mush you charge for that I’m doing the same I don’t know what to charge

[@carlosportilla7634]

Excelent job👌

[@edwardray2832]

Want to replace a 32 year old delta shower setup with a new delta sandover kit, I'm thinking, especially after reading instructions for the tub spout that I need a real plumber.

[@hotpocket55]

If I use threaded fittings is that still ok?

[@johnboltin3631]

perfect with no BS

[@LeslieWood-qb8do]

Great job 👍🙏🙏🙏

[@JessicaSimonson1976]

Why wouldn't you use a threaded end?

[@behailushibru5518]

Great video, thank you very much!

[@gogaton]

Great work

[@tomdale1313]

right on, txs for sharing...

[@rolandoarellano3253]

Why is just hot water coming from my delta shower ??? How can i fix this problem ,,

[@presidenteb]

How much does this cost parts labor? I’m dealing with this exact problem

[@crismartinez1325]

Im bout to attempt this first time doing it 😱

[@edwingarcia232]

Great job

[@LeslieWood-qb8do]

Good job.

[@loosanity]

I would’ve made the riser longer going out of the top of the shower valve. You had room to do that…

[@PLUMBINGWITHTIM]

Me too

[@mathewkozel5323]

DUDE, what are you doing? You NEVER quench a joint after soldering! That can cause micro cracks and ultimately, LEAKS!

[@jeezy6585]

How much would you charge for this? Just trying to see how much should I pay someone for this job. Don’t want to get ripped off.

[@shemarwilliams2465]

You need flex bro
