We have a positive shut off diverter and when pulled to start the shower it leaks from the spout. How to I fix the leak?

SOURCE: Water runs out out both places for spout and shower head in tub!!

One of two issues. Either the shower valve was installed upside down or there is a twin ell ( Old School Diverter) Partially plugged. Odds are the valve is upside down.

Good Luck, Phil

hiit sounds as though the diverter valve is sticking in the mid position although you have turned it to the floor spout as you call it!!
Also it sounds as though the seals are possibly leaking causing the plasterboard (drywall) to get we, or possibly a joint may be leaking. Advice access the pip-work valve etc run shower & check with torch (flashlight) to see where its coming from?
Rectification work replace seals/repair leak...replace diverter valve assembly.

First you should obtain a parts brake-down instruction sheet, contained within the owners manual or downloaded from the manufactures website. With that you will have a detailed description of the removal and re-installation of that units cartridge, which upon removal you may see a build up of debris at the inlet ports or a ruptured O-ring in need of replacement.

Before any dis-assembly, turn off the hot and cold supply to the unit.

Good luck

sometimes there are orings or gaskets that get tore in assembly one of those may be bad,or if it is around the threds you might try wraping teflon tape around the thred once or twice.hope this helps

SOURCE: Diverter valve does not work correctly.

the connections are reversed,just change them over and this will fix the problem.
