I know I’m late to this video. But Delta offers a lifetime warranty on cartridges. You can call Delta and even if you do not know which faucet/cartridge you need, they will help you identify the faucet and cartridge you need. You will either take a picture and text it to them or a video and they can identify a faucet. And they will send out the cartridge for free. The cartridges are about $70.

Thank you for your video. I couldn't even begin to fix my leak until I found out what kind of assembly I have first, and I was able to find out through your video. Just to let everyone know, I had a little drip leak out of my tub spout and called a plumber out to give me an estimate. He didn't turn the water off, and open it up to see anything, but just looked and told me he had to replace the cartridge and it would cost $275.00. I thought that sounded outrageous, so I again turned to youtube. I am an older lady with arthritis, so if I can do this, anyone can! I watched this video, and found out I don't even have a cartridge in my set-up! I have the first one, the one with a ball and little spring and rubber do-dad. I found the spring and rubber set on amazon for around 5 bucks. Today, I turned my water off and started to open it up and used pliers to grab the old rubber and spring out and inserted the new ones and put everything back on. Ty so much!

OH wow!!!! What a blessing!!! I have a delta valve system in a standup shower in a 20 year old home that we bought 3 years ago... we are in love with the home and property. I notice I had a continual leak was coming from the Control valve through the shower head, instead of cutting into the Sheetrock, I decided to do all the replacement work through the hole in the shower wall. I grinded all the Pex rings off, and pulled the old valve out-and replacement with the new. I bought a regular plunger to install in the new valve. But I didn’t know they have changed to a new plunger with longer legs to fit the deeper valve.. !!!!!!! What this video did for me was highlight the part number of the part that I needed to replace the shorter leg plunger...Thank you for a simple idea to include part numbers, with that,, I went to Lowe’s and picked it right up... I only had some much time to fixed this. And you saved me a bunch of wasted time!!!!!!! Thank You Jesus that I watched your instructional,, it’s exactly what I needed, Thanks Rusty

One of the issues is people using channel locks on them. They end up egging the ring and then it’s a bitch to get off. Try spinning it with your hand and a rag to grip it with. If you use channel locks dont grip it real tight. Easy does it is best. If it fails cut it off.

Some good info but you should talk about the pot-metal handles secured by an allen screw that won't come out. Also, on those round "nuts" that hold the cartridge in, a rubber strap wrench works wonders! If you try grabbing it with pliers/Channel Locks, it ovals and holds that much tighter. I also apply a little grease (Lithium works fine) to the threads. That will help insure that the nut comes off easily.

I just replaced one of these today. If the round nut holding your valve in place won't come loose here are the methods I tried. 1. WD-40 or LIthium Grease. 2. Two pipe wrenches, didn't budge. 3. Filed a slot in the top of the nut for my flat-head screwdriver to fit and attempt to tap loose with my hammer, didn't budge. 4. I learned calcium builds ups inside the nut. I took my hammer and lightly tapped around the entirety of the nut a handful of times to attempt to break up the calcium deposits. 5. Tried with the pipe wrench a few more times, it finally budged and loosened up. When you go your local hardware store with your existing valve to match up for a new one ensure you also purchase Plumber's Grease. You will coat the O-rings of your new valve with the Plumbers Grease to slide into the fitting easy. Without the Plumber's Grease I could not seat my new valve completely into the fitting. Good luck!

So I bought a new delta shower system at Lowe’s to replace the old system and as you know, the valve cartridge’s are different! Of course they are!! Is my only option to replace the main brass valve body in the wall or try to find a shower system that uses the same cartridge? The current cartridge looks to be like the last in your video and seems to be a shallow mount? The new cartridge is like that longer version you showed with the two distinct sides of hot and cold… house was built in the 2009 and this is the original. Thanks so much for the guidance! The best….

Thanks for sharing your plumbing parts expertise! Now I know I have a 1500 or 1700 series cartridge, and I just need to figure out how to get the handle off. Surely there's a video somewhere to help with that... In exchange, I'll offer a production tip: When you want to show us a close-up view, hold the part in one hand, and hold your other hand up flat to the camera, close behind the part. Sorta like you're directing traffic, telling the viewer STOP! The camera's auto-focus and auto-exposure will adjust themselves to your flat hand, which is about right for the part, instead of to your face. If the part's too big to use your hand as a backdrop, find a stiff flat neutral color medium-dark matte (not shiny) thing to hold behind it. The recycled cardboard back of a legal pad should be about right, but you can use almost anything to give the camera a backdrop.

We have a delta single handle shower unit, 13/1400 series 11:35 that stopped working and I have replaced the 11:35 valve at least 5 times! All said the new valves were the correct RP replacement part,none of them worked! The valve body and banjo nut are in good shape and never showed any signs of leakage. That shower kit was installed new before 2000 and has been working fine until recently.The valve body has three holes, 2large holes for the valve cartridge legs and one smaller hole below the other two, the cartridge is installed properly with the hot side marking to the hot side of the valve body but when the water is restored and the handle with the new part is turned on nothing happens. The water makes it to the cartridge then stops there , no matter what I do! Can't figure out what's wrong?? Can you help me with this problem please,and thank you . Doc Rock

6:21, you can also use WD 40 & let that soak in. But after these valves have been in for some time with all that calcium & hard water build up, everything just freezes up so one may just have to do with a cartridge replacement. I wish they would do with out these Allen wrench handles I would prefer the screw type as the Allen nuts are hard to access.
