    Kudos for showing an honest common error forgetting to install the seats & springs first and having to redo the work. I’ve done something similar. Great video

    save my life bros. looking all over the internet for the right ball cartridge, did not know I could upgrade since they don't sell the old one anymore.

    Awesome video! All the others had a cylindrical cartridge and I had no clue what the heck I was looking at. Going down to the hardware store tomorrow, here goes nothing!

    Thank you! The kit I bought didn't have instructions. Even though it wasn't an exact match, your video was enough to get me through the project. 😀

    I'm impressed. I usually need three hands to do these type of projects and you can manage with one hand. Also, enjoyed your added sound effects...Bing, bing, bing...boing, boing, boing...done.

    Thank u. I replaced my delta cartridge today and water was not turning off. However I put springs faci.g me instead of away. That may be the problem?? I will try it tomorrow

  • @Peter-976

    Step one: turn off the water supply

    • @jackpayne3996
      @jackpayne3996 Před rokem +1

      Step two: Drink beer, while deciding as to whether or not you want to continue with the project.
      If you drink enough, you'll probably decide to take a break. Hince: You'll likely safe yourself a little work, by deciding to finish later when you're not half drunk!🥴
      Ps: Be sure to turn water back on. Better to have a leaky faucet than not have a shower for the next 6 months while you're trying to work up the courage to try again!😄

    Info was good, but the video itself wasn't so great because of the one handedness made the picture not the greatest. Maybe consider a mounted camera if you're going to do more? If scratches from the wrench are ever are a bigger concern, I'd recommend a rubber strap wrench, sometimes also called oil filter wrench.

    • @wiezoserious
      @wiezoserious Před 11 měsíci

      I figured it out. At least in my case, calcium from the old inner hardware shot up to the shower head and blocked the water in the shower head filter. Once I took the head off, water flowed perfectly.

      @alpharettaleasing6492 yes the silicone on the ball, springs n seats is key for longevity just like oiling the seal when changing oil lol. Also inner portion that is used to tighten by key! Only just snug the cap then tighten inner portion to final resistance. Do not just crush down on the cap

    Its good...but too shaky...I could not watch the ending. I will have to slow the speed. Also why is the shower hose hanging down when you are fixing....you should have hung it up.
