    Can't find odd sized bath spout w/diverter
    I have been to a total of six hardware and plumbing stores in my city. They have all told me that I have a very odd shaped bathtub spout. It is bigger that 3/4" and smaller than 1". One guy told me that it must be 7/8" but still couldn't size it with pipes. I have to find this piece cause I need to take showers but everyone has told me I would have a very hard time finding it. Any advice?

    Sounds like a delta tub spout (can't be sure, of course, without a picture)...

    Take a look at this link to an older post... after click on link, scroll down to post #7 and review the pics... does yours have threaded adapter like the one in pic..

    Otherwise, see if you can take a picture of spout and post it at the "go advanced" feature at posting box... OR... have you considered adapting over to a newer tub spout with diverter?? Should not be too hard to adapt over to something that will work for you. Let us know what you think... Mark

Tub Spout Leaks at diverter [ 1 Answers ]

I replaced my tub spout which was leaking water when the shower diverter was lifted. The new one leaks just as much. I thought maybe there isn't enough water pressure to seal the diverter. I have another shower with the same spout and it doesn't leak. Could there be a problem somewhere else?
