 Please help me identify this brand of faucet
Author: JohnnyG29 (TN)

Hi, I have a rental property in a state that is a 2 day drive from here. Tenant won't help much in identifying these valves. I've written three companies trying to find a diverter valve and have yet to have any success with them. Currently I'm waiting on an email reply from KIingston and I've emailed water creations with no luck. My problem is that I would rather not spend hundreds of dollars to tear into the tile and replace the entire shower system when I can potentially repair the diverter valve. Unfortunately this is a one bathroom house so it is not feasable to take this apart and wait for parts or even a full on replacement. If anyone can help me identify this or offer any kind of advice I would greatly appreciate it. (problem is when the middle valve is turned to divert water to the shower water still comes out through bathtup faucet).
thank you so much for looking... my apologies for the worst picture ever but again, tenant is not providing me a lot of help.

Picture looks too generic. Has anyone taken the diverter apart and see if it just needs washer replaced? We would have a lot better chance of an ID, if there was a picture of the diverter valve itself. How about replacing the tub spout with a diverter spout?

It may be Price Pfister. Just a guess.

Hmmm. That's actually a great idea. Let me look into this.

Not that it couldn't have been replaced at some point, but the escouchen behind the spout seems Price Pfisterly to me.

there are a few brands that used similar handles: phister, sterling and crane to name a few. take the diverter stem out and take it to the store with you to compare
