How to Repair a Leaky Delta Shower Faucet in 5 Easy Steps
A leaking Delta shower faucet can be a nuisance and can cause water damage if not taken care of quickly. Fortunately, repairing a Delta shower faucet is relatively easy and can be done in just five steps. Here’s how to do it:
Step 1: Shut Off the Water Supply
Before you start any repairs, make sure to shut off the water supply to the shower faucet. This will prevent any further water damage while you’re working on the faucet.
Step 2: Remove the Handle
Once the water supply is shut off, you can begin removing the handle of the faucet. Use a screwdriver to loosen and remove the screws that hold the handle in place. Then, carefully pull off the handle and set it aside.
Step 3: Unscrew and Remove the Bonnet
The bonnet is located directly beneath the handle and is held in place by a nut or bolt. Use a wrench or pliers to unscrew and remove it from the faucet. Once it’s removed, you should be able to see inside of the faucet where you can access any broken parts or seals that may need replacing.
Step 4: Replace Any Broken Parts
If you find any broken parts or seals inside of your Delta shower faucet, replace them with new ones that are compatible with your model of Delta shower faucet. Make sure they are securely fastened before moving on to step five.
Step 5: Reassemble and Test
Once all of your new parts are in place, it’s time to reassemble your Delta shower faucet. Start by replacing the bonnet and then reattaching the handle with screws. Finally, turn on your water supply and test out your newly repaired Delta shower faucet.
With these five easy steps, you should now have a fully functioning Delta shower faucet that won’t leak anymore. If you ever have any questions about repairing or replacing parts for your Delta shower faucet, make sure to consult an experienced plumber for help.
