When delta made a shower valve with the 3 silver soldered soft copper extensions on the valve they didn't know what kind of disaster they created. When you try to change the rubber rings and springs in the valve, it can be impossible to take the main nut off with out tweaking the valve because the chrome escutcheon that doesn't come off unless the main nut is off just spins freely when you need to hold the valve while you try to unscrew the main nut. What I found out to be the easiest way is to cut the chrome escutcheon completely off and then you can grab the valve with pliers and not twist the valve body, of course you will need a new escutcheon when your done replacing the parts of the valve so the next plumber or homeowner can do the same thing later on. I can only imagine the billions of escutcheons they need to make for that very poorly designed valve.
