💧 High-Quality Cartridge Replacement for Delta Monitor 17 Series Shower Faucet Valve (2006-Present) - Includes RP46073 Seat and Spring Adapter Review

The hardest part of the procedure for me was removing the union nut and then making sure the mechanism holding the springs and rubber caps was installed correctly. Luckily it was enough with some lubricating spray and a pipe wrench to remove the union nut. Initially, the mechanism holding the springs and rubber cap was not fully seated, and as a result, the cartridge was not fully seated. I pushed the mechanism into place with the end of the hammer handle and this locked the mechanism in place,

Delta faucets installed in our 10 year old home. Cartridge valve blocks are awesome, but wear out a bit after 10 years of daily use. I removed the faceplates of our shower controls and was able to see the cartridge model number. I ordered and installed this replacement cartridge model. There's Murphy: He has a hot side and a cold side of orientation, not clearly marked. I guessed wrong. But a shower test showed the controls were working incorrectly, and I simply removed the cartridge, rotated…

Unfortunately this one leaks worse than the one I replaced. It dripped so much I had to turn off the water when we weren't using it. It literally caused half the shower head to leak. I ended up paying twice to have the shower fixed. I ordered one from Delta, an OEM part, and it worked great. This is one of those moments when buying a genuine part really pays off. Just to be clear, I'm the same person who installed the properly working part, and I installed the original fixtures (virtually the…

This product arrived on time and looks exactly like a replacement. I wanted everyone to know to plan ahead and be prepared to spend some time loosening the swivel nut. I've used channel blocking, but probably not the best option. I would recommend one of the straps. Canal locks tended to jam where he was holding on. Also, be prepared to put some lubricating oil (PB BLaster) on the flare nut. It took 3 times and left it overnight before I could move the union nut. Alternatively, maybe order a…

This cartridge comes with back seals and looks just like the real thing. Installation was a little more difficult than expected, mainly due to the threaded ring getting stuck on my mount. Unscrewed with a pipe wrench. Apply some lubricant when installing to avoid future problems. Otherwise, the device itself is easy to install. Advice. The cartridge fits two ways, but the hot side is usually on the left. If you have the opposite, the temperature control will work in the opposite direction, just

I bought this because I had an annoying drip from a Delta shower spout. I thought I got a good deal on a replacement part for only $40. Well I watched a YouTube video and when it came to the hood nut I thought I was going to rip the whole shower. He's stuck. So I paid a plumber $95 to come and install a new cartridge and set of springs. Everything went fine and well. Remember this is not OEM. It was purchased and installed in August 2019. In April 2020 the drip was back. After some research, I…

I bought this replacement cartridge (RP46463) from Revain because it was about 1/3 the OEM cost of Delta. I replaced my original cartridge using Delta Faucets' excellent YouTube video (highly recommended). It worked great for about a month, then the temperature knob gradually got harder and harder to turn and now it's almost impossible to move. After my problems with a replacement cartridge, I called Delta Faucets (1-800-345-3358) and came to see if this cartridge was professionally installed…
