Everyday Home Repairs That Fix It Guy hi. A plumber installed a brand new tub faucet yesterday. Now there is an issue. When running the diverter, only water comes out of the diverter with good pressure. The problem is when running the shower, the diverter still running. Both at good pressure. When everything is turned off, there are no leaks. I noticed this after the plumber installed and I asked the plumber why the diverter would still run, when shower is still running. The plumber said that is what the new faucets do now. That seems like a huge waste of water when showering. Is what he’s saying true or did he install something wrong? If he installed wrong, what is the fix?

Nice video. As you pointed out, Teflon tape is not necessary to stop the faucet from leaking. Teflon tape may be a lifesaver in the future for someone who wants to remove that spout after many years. That tape will help it to come off. I often use Teflon tape for that reason or I use Pernatex Anti-Seize which I get at auto parts stores. After many years, these faucets get stuck on. That is why they make strap wrenches so you don't mess up the finish. Some people stick a dowel or screw driver into the spout to get some leverage. Vinegar works very well. It works better when heated up. I heat it up in the microwave. I don't know if I would do that with CLR.

Two years later that fix no longer worked and you could barely hear water running at all times. I notified the landlord several times and nothing was done until far too late.

The adapter is brass and the inside of the delta spout is plastic this is why you don't have to worry about it not wanting to come off in future, if the inside of the spout was brass then 100% you would need anti seez . But myself being a licensed master plumber and owning a plumbing company for over 20 years I have installed over 300 of this exact model spout. If you solder the adapter on correctly it will last for years, I see so many contractors soldering the adapter on with the O ring still on which I'm sure most of you know is incorrect, if you remove the O ring then solder the brass adapter on, wait for it to cool ( do not try to put water on the solder joint while it's hot to cool it faster , big no no ) so after it cools then put O ring back on, and screw the spout on until it's snug up against the wall, then put silicone around base so that water does not get behind spout. I never use anything on the adapter threads, the O ring seals the water from going backwards and beings the adapter is brass and the spout threads are plastic it will never corrode. I have some that were on for at least 13 years and went back to unscrew off the spout to replace the O ring and it comes right off like it was on there for one day. You can put anti seez on if you want or Teflon tape, I'm not saying that's wrong, I'm just saying that you don't need to . If you have ever installed any of these they screw on really easy , like super easy there almost to easy that's one reason they come off easy also. But they last alot longer than the ones that have the divert up top.

If you can, please, give me a model number where I can purchase it online -- if you know it. Or, maybe, brand name. I thought it was a Delta, but the ones I got from Amazon don't seem to be it. And, most pictures of the parts don't have the back's picture to see how the other side of the spout looks (sorry, probably the attachment side).

I hope you don't mind me asking a loosely related question: In a condo where the plumbing is the responsibility of the condo association to maintain, and plumbing fixtures (sinks, bathtubs, showers, toilets) are the responsibility of the condo unit owner, what defines the dividing line between plumbing and fixture? For example, is the threaded pipe onto which the spout screws classified as part of the plumbing or as part of the tub/shower fixture? (To my eye, that pipe looks like part of the rough-in plumbing, not part of the fixture. My rule of thumb is that the dividing line is where connections are made, with threads or nuts and seals such as o-rings or plumber's tape.) Also, does the Plumbing Code imply traps are part of the plumbing, not part of the fixture, where the Code talks about the distance between the trap and the fixture outlet? (Except toilet traps, which are built into the toilet.)
@Christy.13 жыл бұрын
Just my opinion, for whatever that's worth :) You would think, as you said, where the connection is. If they the immediate pipe that connects is your responsibility as well, what if you damage it and it causes other problems in spots that are "their" responsibility? Most of those fixtures are cheap and easy to replace, as well as break due to their cheapness, hence why they say it's your responsibility. You'd be best catching the actual maintenance person and asking them directly-as opposed to someone in the office. Plus, the maintenance person may be pretty cool and do stuff on the side or a little extra on the company's dime. Never know :)

Hey, you got any thoughts on a shower head that whenever someone uses water in the house it starts dripping from the head? The other one I got is sometimes my toilet will scream at me. ...Not even kidding, it makes a high pitch loud continuous squeak I guess, which I temporarily fix by flushing the toilet.

The screeching is most likely the fill valve.

do you have a Name Brand / or size of hole for thread on this faucet you are fixing here?

Okay so I had to replace my valve, and spout. My spout was leaking when I turned the valve off, now it does not. It does however leak slightly when the shower is on. What could be the cause of that? Also My water pressure feels lower now that the new valve is on. What could that be? Do you have a video or videos you recommend for these issues?
