Delta's warranty covers North Amerca. The fittings are the same in most oc Canada, and if not, then adapters are available. So. no reason not to use an "American" Delta in Canada.

Just for your information, the Geist collection is made in China.

For more information on Delta faucets, see Delta Facets Review and Rating.

Thank you for your advice! I actually read through your extensive reviews on all brands and found your website very helpful!

I only chose the Geist collection (over any other Delta) due to the design. Is it a problem that it’s made in China? Obviously I would like North American made, but I can’t believe how hard this search is! We originally chose Riobel, but based on many forums that I read here on Houzz, we decided to stay with Delta. We are needing to order our faucets soon as our two bathroom Reno’s are starting next month! Any advice would be appreciated!

We need a bathtub shower system with removable shower head for our girls’ bathroom, and a walk on shower system with a fixed head and also a removable shower wand for our ensuite. Plus, we need sink faucets - one single faucet and one widespread.

You can order the Delta Geist products from Amazon but there does not appear to be a hand shower in the Delta Geist series AND the shower diverter must be able to switch between a shower head and hand shower. Remember that you also need the appropriate Delta rough valve body (example) for the trim (review the shower product specs).

Thanks for this info, wdccruise. I have asked for help with getting the right rough in’s from our bathroom supply store. I feel bad, though, as I’m trying to piecemeal this all together, based mostly on the design of the faucet, but also partly because I’m not sure that I want to spend over $400 for a wide set faucet alone! The Geist is definitely more in our price point (as we’re doing two bathrooms which is getting crazy expensive!), but I also don’t want to sacrifice quality. Any suggestions or advice? Should I just bite the bullet and purchase it all from our supplier, or continue down this rabbit hole that I seem ti be going into!

I've been remodeling for 50 years, and rarely pick plumbing fittings. Tell your plumber what you want and let him/her find them. It's his/her job.

Excellent point! We are certainly paying enough that I shouldn’t have this much stress! I’ll get in touch with my GC tomorrow. Thanks for bringing that perspective!

1. How would the OP be able to convey to the contractor "what you want" if he didn't research the market himself?
2. What if he told the contractor "I want Delta Geist", the contractor bought those, installed them, and then told the OP that he didn't install a hand shower because that product line didn't include them?
3. If the OP was told the Geist line didn't include a hand shower but wanted one, what was he supposed to do, just trust the contractor "pick" something?
4. The Delta Geist 35864LF faucet has a list price of $149 but sells for $87 at Home Depot. How would the OP know he was charged a reasonable price by the contractor if he didn't check prices himself?

My take away from StarCraft’s comment was that my plumber/GC are the ones who should know the rough in requirements so that I should be able to just tell them what I want (in terms of design and specific faucet) and they should be able to figure out all the required components. I would never chance design choice to a plumber or GC!

I just can’t believe how complicated (and expensive!) it is putting a shower together! To make things more difficult, we in Canada have an incredibly smaller selection of Delta faucets than you do in the US. I came across the Geist on Amazon.ca (the only way I can buy it) and it’s considerably more than $89 at Home Depot! Of course, we can’t get it through Home Depot Canada either! Delta does have another model that is similar, Dryden, that is available in Canada, but it’s over $600 retail just for the wide set faucet! How can it be so much more expensive? And for the record, I still like the look of Geist more than Dryden!

1. How would the OP be able to convey to the contractor "what you want" if he didn't research the market himself?

I am all for homeowners doing their own research and we provide dozens of well-researched articles on our website to make that research easier. But after a fitting is selected, it's up the the plumber to find out what additional components are needed to install the fitting.

2. What if he told the contractor "I want Delta Geist", the contractor bought those, installed them, and then told the OP that he didn't install a hand shower because that product line didn't include them?

Then, I hope the contractor would be fired for being a idiot. In a half century of doing this work, I have never seen anything like that happen.

3. If the OP was told the Geist line didn't include a hand shower but wanted one, what was he supposed to do, just trust the contractor "pick" something?

Depends on the relationship. I trust subcontractors to pick appropriate fittings all the time, but, both the homeowner and I need to approve the choice before it is installed.

4. The Delta Geist 35864LF faucet has a list price of $149 but sells for $87 at Home Depot. How would the OP know he was charged a reasonable price by the contractor if he didn't check prices himself?

How does the OP know the contractor is not overcharging for anything? Either you trust your contractor or you don't. If you don't I would suggest hiring a different contractor. The Geist faucet is one of Delta's targeted faucets sold only at big box lumber stores.I doubt it can be bought anywhere in the U.S. for over $89.00. The $149 MSRP is a joke. It's only purpose is the permit sellers to offer the faucet at so many dollars off the list price.

Just because a contractor puts a markup on material does not mean that they are overcharging. Sourcing and supplying the fixtures is not a free service from either a designer or a contractor.
