I replaced my bath faucet and now am struggling (to say the least) to get the tub spout to not leak.
It is a brand new spout that come with the faucet. A delta faucet.
I cannot get the spout to not leak.
I did the directions to a T and for whatever reason the spout keeps leaking thru the back end. It only does this after the shower is turned on. It does not leak when the bath faucet is on! VERY ODD!!
I took a guess that the spout was either faulty or maybe that I cracked the inside when I tightened it so I went out and purchased a replacemnet spout. This one did the same and it was a worse leak. I called Delta, they said that that I must have cracked the inside diverter and to try another replacemnt spout (a 3rd). I do this and same thing happens. I have to be doing something wrong but just cannot put a nail on it. I do the driections exactly and carefully as they say.
ANY IDEAS HERE???
I did call Delta again today and they said their spout has to be faulty so they are sending out a replacement. But why the leaks?????
I am going to wait until I get their replacement and just call them back and have them take me thru the steps one by one so I know it is right but the thing is there is only so many things that can be wrong when changing a faucet.
This has got me at my wits end. Any ideas in the mean time while I wait for the replacement spout.
