Questions and Answers for Delta Tub/Shower Diverter Rough-In Kit

Will allow three seperate outputs, with dual operation on those adjacent each other. Pressure will be reduced while operating dual shower heads to some degree depending on your water pressure and piping size throughout home.

With this diverder you can divert the water any three directions you like. I used this as hand held shower head and large rain shower head. I had to plug one. Remember this is diverter. You also need valve to turn on and off the water.

Thank you for your question, JT! This valve will allow you to divert between 2 or 3 showering components. A loop is not required unless you are connecting multiple body sprays to a single diverter outlet. Best regards, Jon

No, the bottom inlet is for the incoming water; the left outlet is for the hand held wand; the upper outlet is for the shower head; the right outlet is sealed off unless using a tub also. If your running a wall mount shower head & rain head @ the same time, both would feed off the upper outlet. Pressure would just depend on your incoming pressure, right?

Thank you for your question, Mon1! The right port needs to be capped when using a 3-setting diverter cartridge, however, by using a 6-setting diverter cartridge instead, you will be able to cap the left side port in order to use the right side port for the hand shower. Please note, there will be 3 blank settings when doing this. https://www.deltafaucet.com/parts-product-detail?modelNumber=RP51919 Best regards, Edward

The diverter can have 3 or 6 outlets. There is a plug that comes with it for that. I had 2 shower "heads" on mine. One rain shower on the front wall and a hand held on the back wall. I also had 2 body sprayers or a total of 3 outlets. I chose the 6 outlet mode so I could have each of the 3 outlets on individually. Or the rain shower and the body sprayers. Or the hand held and the body sprayers. Or the rain shower and the hand held on at the same time.....

Yes you can.

Yes. Valve is designed to allow for three separate devices (rain shower, regular shower head and a hand held wand, my setup).

Hi, Tom! Thank you for your question. The Delta R11000 Diverter Rough-In valve does include a plastic plaster guard, RP46076. Best Regards, Rosanna

No. Must order separate, based on your water valve ring choice (brushed nickle, chrome, etc).

You will need three diverters. One for each shower head 3 pcs.Delta R10000-UNWSHF MultiChoice Universal High-Flow Shower Rough - Universal Inlets / Outlets (For use with shower only models) 3 pcs any style Delta three-way trim kit that will fit R10000 -UNWSHF

This will only allow one on alone or 2 on together, not all 3 at one time

Thank you for your question, BrianB! Our 6-setting 3-port diverters allow you to run each component individually or any two together. To run all 3 at once, you will need two R10000 valves and trim kits and one R11000 valve with a 3-setting 2-port diverter trim.

The minimum distance will depend on the trim kits purchased for both the shower valve and diverter valve.

Thank you for your question, Chit! The minimum will depend on the size of the escutcheon plate included with the trim kits that you will be using. We recommend. We recommend having 6 1/2" or more between the center of the R10000 and R11000 valves. However, please refer to the Technical Specifications of the trim for an exact minimum. Best regards, Jon

I've installed several of these and have always maintained 8 1/2" center to center between the valve and the diverter. This gives you a space of approx 2-1/8" between the trim of the valve and the trim of the diverter. So in order for the trim pieces to clear each other I would say you can't go closer than say 7". That would still maintain a space of approx 5/8" between trim pieces.

No minimum. Just leave enough distance so that the cover trim on the diverter valve and shower valve don't collide. And you have space for tile between them. And something to support the tile.

I did a complete remodel so everything was new. You will need to plug the tub outlet as the divert-er operates off of the shower outlet so you can keep your existing valve.

Just plug the existing tub connection at the valve. If current valve works and doesn’t leak no need to replace.

This is a threeway diverter. You have to plug one to able to use for rain shower and hand held shower. You are also going to need mixer too. I hope I answered your question. Good luck with your project.

Plugging will work. And allow some one to convert it back 20 years from now.

If you will have only one shower head, rain or other, you donot need to change, if you will have two or more shower heads then you have to have a DIVERTER in order to select different shower heads

Yes, this model can be used with copper piping.

Hello SunsetSlacker, Thank you for your question! This valve has female 1/2" copper sweat connections and male 1/2" threaded connections. Best regards, Jon

The trim kit comes with the cartridge, escutcheon, and handle!

Hi Juana. All the diverter trim sets comes with cartridgeS.

Every thing you need on the finished side of the wall.

Hi, Juana! Thank you for your question. The Diverter trim kit for the R11000 includes the diverter cartridge assembly, the handle, escutcheon plate and sleeve assembly. Best Regards, Rosanna

Juana, You have to purchase a separate trim kit that will contain the escusion (covers the opening in the wall) and the valve handle. Usually you buy these to match the shower on/off temperature valve and shower head.
