Thanks Dustin! I recently moved into a new house that needs some small improvements, including this. Followed your instructions and now no more water coming from the spout when pulling up the lever! My copper pipe was much longer than the one you showed in the video, so I just needed to screw the spout on directly. Hopefully I didn’t miss anything but will keep the spare parts just in case. Thanks again Dustin!

Great vid Dustin I didn't have to remove my tub filler spout. I just laid on my back with a headlamp. I took a flat blade screwdriver from underneath and splayed the nylon latch-fingers apart and pulled up on the diverter knob on top of the tub filler. The nylon part with the diverter rubber washer seal slid down and out the bottom of the spout. I replaced the washer with a Draco "TUB SPOUT DIVERTER REPAIR KIT" from depot. I just used the NEW rubber washer seal and re-used the other original parts; lift rod and nylon diverter gate. My old rubber washer seal had a notch out of it.

seems pretty straight forward and easy enough to do with one hand, i just moved into a new house went to take my first shower and the diverter is seized in the down position so i ordered a new spout from amazon but living on a relatively remote island in the north atlantic in canada the prime free 2 day shipping is more like 10 days so ive got 5 more days. next step is the rotted floors which i see you have a video on that too the toilet leaks between the tank and bowl when flushed which has rotted the floor around it causing the toilet to lean 3 degrees to the left so i just put down towels to soak up the water and got a seniors cammode / toilet seat riser to put over it so im not putting any weight on the toilet itself and the toilet stopped leaking when flushed but the whole back half of the house is falling off

Just curious, I know you didn't say anything about shutting the main water supply off to change out this threaded diverter, nor did you say anything about turning it back on when you put it back on. I'm about to change one out at an apartment complex that has to have the entire building shut off, if I need to cut one water supply it's the whole building. I need to be absolutely certain that that's okay, to just spin the diverter off and take off, while leaving the main water supply on -which to me doesn't seem correct at all, but possibly it is. I'm just an amateur plumber. But it absolutely was not spoken of in this video one way or the other. So I just wanted to take this time to ask since I'll be doing this in the next couple of days. Please let me know if the main water supply needs to be shut off before proceeding with this replacement. Thank you

There was no need to take the tub spout apart. Don’t twist the spout before loosening the set screw. That will score the copper to much. And tape off the spout before caulking, then remove the tape after smoothing the caulk. This leaves a better look.

Hi Annie. If it’s the kind I use here they will never stop spinning. You would want to put it in the place where you need it and then tighten down that screw. This will prevent it from turning easily. I hope this helps

Check the seals, add some Teflon tape. You got this

What if that long white piece inside the diverter doesn't screw out of the diverter? Can you keep it on and then screw the diverter on?

Hey Trudy! The ones where the white piece won’t come out are usually for a shorter pipe. I would try to get one that’s similar to the one you’re replacing. I hope this helps

@@homemend Thanks for the advice. The new spout is exactly like the old one where the diverter broke, but whenever I put the new one on, it leaks from where it meets the wall. I've tried tape, but still am struggling to replace this faucet, which should be a really easy fix. I'll try again.

Hey Jean. Sorry you’re having trouble. The best thing to do would be to take a picture of it and maybe measure the diameter of the threads and then go down to the hardware store. I’m sure they have a diverter that will fit what you need regardless if it’s mobile home or not. You got this!
