We needed a lower profile for our shower valves. After it was covered with the plate, it took up a few less inches than using two separate valves. Love it!

Installation
About the worst install instructions I’ve ever seen - as if that weren’t bad enough called Delta tech support and these morons knew about as much as I did, perhaps less - recommend you go out in the back yard and ask your dog - you’ll enjoy it more and you won’t get any worse answers and save some time - yep my last Delta product

    poor instructions on the diverter
    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?

    Hi Joe, I'm sorry for the difficulty you're having with the installation instructions on the Delta product. The R22000 is a shower only rough integrated rough in valve. Also, the cartridge is included with the trim you order. You will need to order a 3 setting diverter trim. The 3 setting trim will allow you to use hand held only, shower head only and both together. Please reach out to us at customerservice@deltafaucet.com or 1-800-345-3358 with any additional questions or concerns. Best regards, Brandis
      Easy to Plumb and operate.
      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.

        This valve sucks! You will spend your time on repairs. And the ingineering is all wrong!

          Great body
          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

            A great integrated diverter valve
            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.

              Poor instructions
              A simple diagram showing the options for piping would help. I look at the date of the comments below and can’t believe nothing has been done.

                  Very very bad installation instructions
                  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.

                  Hi Andy3809, I am so sorry to hear the installation instructions were not clear to you. Feedback like yours helps us to become better. On page 2 is where it states "Plug right diverter port (marked as 3 on rough-in box) if using a 3 function diverter." This information is in bold font. For more information please contact us at 1-800-345-3358 or customerservice@deltafaucet.com.
                    Just roughed it in, and not happy with what I see
                    First, there's only two mounting brackets for the rough body itself and they are about an inch apart in the center of the valve. It can not support itself by what is provided and the excess weight of this particular combo valve. On the opposite wall I have a R10000-UNBXHF universal valve that has mounting brackets further apart, and on opposite corners which makes it so much more stable. The R22000 should have at least 4 because of the size and weight. Second, the rough in box, part number RP84875 only has one screw to hold it to the valve body. The trim attaches to the rough in box. ARE YOU KIDDING ?! How stable will the trim be when the rough in box isn't ? Take it from a plumber of 25 years. I've had to improvise to make sure this valve and trim stays on the wall for the next 10 years.

                      Functional diverted and water temperature adjuster
                      Works as advertised. Diverter ports should be labeled to help installer identify better. Instructions are not very clear on identifying ports.
