I wonder how much water, if any, is acceptable to course from the bath tub spout when the diverter is engaged?
What say you?.

I have a shower valve that does drip from the spout while showering not sure how much but I believe it's designed that way
I don't like any so I was continually replacing the spout with the pull-up diverter. I then changed to a spring loaded pull-down type and it's been good for a year or so now with (nearly) zero drip.
Yeh I get it water is expensive!!!!!
No, I just hate leaks! It's my OCD at work.
I, also have the pull-down, which has a healthy little stream. When I find a few spare minutes, I will remove the spout ... probably an O ring failure.
If it’s a Delta there’s no repair on record. But I’ve often repaired things that are said to be not repairable.
Take a pic and let me see what you have.
FWIW, this is the one I have and it looks that something may be able to be taken apart at least in this DANCO one:

Thanks for offer! However, went in the catycombs and found the receipt, dated 2000, and info sheet for the diverter. It is a Delta. So, I called Delta Faucet ... they are sending a free replacement! Their list price is $98!!
Thats good we like FREE. A drip doesn't matter but if your loosing a lot of water out the spout that should be coming out of the
shower head.
shower head.
What about this??
Wonder if one could simply install just the sensor valve. Woud that perform, in essence, like a recirc pump left on all day?
