Delta Tub / Shower Rough-In Valve R22000

Just what we were looking, easy to install for complete remodeled

Perfect for you Master bath remodel. Great features.

This item seems to be working well.

I am a 22 year old woman who just happens to be pretty handy and I figured this valve out in about 20 minutes. I'm convinced the people who are complaining about installation instructions are only partially reading or really shouldn't be doing anything that involves trade work... Delta makes the easiest valves to use on the market.

I used 1/2' copper on all fittings. Sweat fittings only. The water volume drop a little with both heads on. I was thinking about using pex, but the fitting size drop down to 3/8' and I didn't want to compromise the volume of water.

Constructed very well. Installation was easy to install. A little difficult to get the 3rd output port around the incoming line. Would have been better if the incoming ports were on the top

The issue I'm having is that it's not hot enough for me. It's a luke warm temp. I need to make this water hotter. What can I do to fix this without having to tear down the wall to replace it?

I just installed this valve in a shower. I cannot find in the instructions anywhere that states you cannot use the right side port for the hand held shower. You must use the left side, even if the shower opening is to the left. Then, you have to run your water supply pipe out to the left, back behind valve, and over to the right side. I did not get this until after I spent hours taking apart the diverter insert to see if it could be switched. There is a diagram showing diverter water flow in the manual, but the the manual does not state you can't use right side port. So of course you want to trouble shoot to see why. Second, the plastic cover is indeed very flimsy. Third, you have to install nipples into the drop ears and cap them off to install the testing plugs. There is no viable mud guard for tile installation. So if you are installing this item, make sure you add many hours to your estimate.

poor instructions, they say nothing on how to pipe a tub spout, why not a simple piping diagram, sound like we should know the trim package before piping. Is there a different stem available using the valve for just 2 functions [ hand held and shower head] we plugged the left port?

The issue I'm having is that the water temp is not hot enough for me or my wife when it's turned as hot as it can go. The water is luke warm at best. What can I do to fix this without having to punch a hole in the wall to replace it?
