Do I have to shut off the water to the house? I am not removing the cartridge or anything just replacing the faceplate and handle. I'm doing this for my grandmother's older house and not entirely sure where her main shutoff is.
@@lasvegaskiteboarding2256 appreciate the compliment on my painting skills but I am no professional and never have been. Truly this is meant to show you how to diy. If you don't have a steady hand this might not be the right method though for sure.
@@paul-1176 that's a bummer sorry to hear that. Maybe you can replace the motor inside of the brush head or just get a new brush head entirely. Good luck
@@clay.allsoppp Thanks for watching! It's hard for me to say without being able to see it but what I would do is: note the place that is leaking, and then take it back apart to see what's going on. Maybe there's just some washer that didn't set right or something didn't get tightened all the way.
@@DIYCollective Thanks for your response! It seems to be leaking from behind the ball and coming out of the front where the lever is. I tried taking the springs out and putting them back in, but it still leaks when the water is on. Do you know if this is a symptom of a bigger problem? (Like the pipes getting messed up in the disassembly?)
@@clay.allsoppp it's hard for me to know without seeing but as it's only leaking when the water is on it's probably something with the new valve and not your pipes. I'd be more worried if it was spraying without turning on the water on the valve. Maybe you got a defective one, you could try to exchange the kit. Best of luck finding the leak
@@heatherallain6860 thanks for watching . this has been installed since the video and since working like a charm. No water leaking til now, knock on wood.
@@Its_about_that_time oh yeah not much you can do about that. You can probably retexture that part of the wall pretty easily after you scrape it all off
Great video. I'm down to removing the bonnet & am hesitant because it's the original install from the 80's. A plumbing company said I'd have to keep the silver one or it would be $800 for the switchout! Aaagh! I'm wanting a matte black & Danco seems to be the only one that is compatible to the 600 series. I wish Delta would make a black finish kit!
Thanks for watching! Yeah, that's true. it would be a lot more work otherwise to change the piping behind the wall for a different fixture. I suppose you could also paint this delta kit matte black with spray paint.
Hi, thanks for watching. in this case there might be a clog elsewhere in the vacuum that might be restricting it. Otherwise, you're probably right that the motor in the head could eventually go bad. Try cleaning the filter and check there's no other obstruction in the hose.
Having the same brush roller problem, the culprit was that the white nylon motor gear had worn so that it was not gripping the motor axle. A drop of super glue fixed it.
I also have the same cartridge with the ball. I think is the 600 series. However mine is flash with the wall so I installed a kit from Amazon and the leverage hits the plate. Urs is sticking out from wall which is good
I understand . There are some super light weight poles as well. But, It's hard on the back and shoulders regardless. Still safer and faster than going up and down the ladder in my opinion so it's a trade off
Hi, i use this thermostat and when cooling of i on the fan the compressor start ? On fan should compressor not start. I have package unit How to fix this issue?
Hi I'm not clear on your question but if you go through the installation guide in the application on your phone or tablet it should walk you through which wires go where. Good luck!
This is literally the shower valve of the 30 year old apartment im living in. Inwas literally trying to repair it right now coz it was not sealinf properly and it was slightly leaking around the valve. Just manage to stop the leaking at least temporarily. Apparently overtime it gets lose
@@allendeutsch3188 I've not had time to look as it stands now I will likely have to buy a router and a bit. I think I know what I need not sure, it's an odd groove maybe 1/2 inch from the top of the board, making a round edge. I'm sure it's still being made. This house was made in the late 80's so it should be impossible to match some styles.
So the one you took out was cut to fit with the edges overlapping on the outside drywall. What you are putting in is simply a square cut piece. Am I missing something here, because there's no mention of a track already cut out to accept the new one. I have about half a dozen of these to do and need to know these things. 🤔
Hi sorry I missed this . Mine just seemed to fit that way you don't have to put it into the drywall like that with the notches . Hope you were able to get these installed .
I saw somewhere else too you can use a bunch of rubber bands all around the boot to help hold the sole to the boot as it dries. Thanks for the video! Happy shredding my dudes!
I simply caulked the chrome on the outside after install. That's the way I've always seen it done. Doing it in and out will definitely make it ultra leak proof . Good idea
