We recently installed new Delta Ara Monitor 14 assembly after a remodel. When replacing the handle, we can't reposition it. Is there a way to do that? See the picture. The handle is currently in the off position. Looked everywhere for info on this.
Yes, there's only one way to install it.Did the cartridge get installed in the correct position?
They must have changed them then. No worries.Yes, there's only one way to install it.
The cartridge can be reversed, you’re correct. But that won’t cause this problem.They must have changed them then. No worries.
Thanks! See attached pic. The water turns on and off fine, just the handle won't line up.Take the handle off and let me see what you’ve done.
I’ll help you get it corrected.
Maybe? You have to turn the catridge slightly to get it in so it's not installed straight on. What's weird is that the prior handled was completely aligned just fine. Not sure why it's so low...builder installed probably why.Maybe the valve is installed wrong, back in the wall?
And why is the valve installed so darn low?
Maybe for handicapped access?
Not sure what to do. That's how it came.Looking at the picture in #7 of the backside of your handle, it doesn't look quite right.
Yes, there are actually 2 notches. The plastic vee's are in the correct place.I think there is a little plastic tab on the cold side of the cartridge, that has to sit in a small vee notch at the three o’clock position.
Is that how yours is now?
It has two notches because the cartridge can be reversed for back to back installations or reversed hot/cold water linesYes, there are actually 2 notches. The plastic vee's are in the correct place.
But it's brand new. I have 2 of them and they are both doing the same thing. One is in the tub and one is in the shower. (separate tub/shower)The handle is ruined. Get another handle. That’s all that’s wrong.
