My tub has a separate faucet and handles, similar to this pictu
http://www.homedepot.com/prel80/HDUS...d1172396045390

The tub faucet is no longer diverting water to the shower because the
pull-up stopper has broken off. I want to replace this broken faucet
with a new one. Couple of questions:
1. How do I remove the existing tub faucet? I'm guessing just wrench
the facuet off?
2. How do I remove the existing water control handles?

Thanks!

That link doesn't make clear what model you have.

Is the pull-up in the tub spout? If so, you can
replace just the spout. Some spouts screw on to
a threaded pipe, others slip on (no threads).

The part "sessionID" in the url above is, I think, a clue that this
will not work if you are not in the middle of your particular session.
For the rest of us it redirects, I think, to a page named

OK, so that is character for character the same thing. 8~) Despite
that, I think the rest of what I said is right. It probably won't
even work for you again.

10-4.

There's a screw fastening them to the stems. Pry off the covers.
