Frequently Asked Questions - Faucet Related
The most common leak is a drip from the end of the spout. This drip can usually be fixed by replacing your stem or cartridge, which turn on and off the water in the faucet. You need to determine whether it is the hot, cold or both sides causing the leak. You can then remove the stem or cartridge, which lies beneath the handle and locate a store near you that carries our replacement parts, or you can call our customer service to obtain information on replacing the stem/cartridge. For warranty information, please refer to your warranty cards sent with the faucet. If you have misplaced these please refer to our warranty section on this web-site.
The first step is to shut off the water supply to your faucet. The next step is to remove the index button on your handle, screw, and then the handle should come off. Note how the cartridge is in place, direction, etc. Then remove the cartridge and place the new cartridge the exact same way as the other one was positioned. Replace the handle components and turn the water on to test to make sure that everything is working properly. If you have any problems, please call our customer service at (888) 967-9951.

The most common reason for low water pressure is the build up of debris in the water line or aerator. You may need to flush out your faucet. Step One. Flush the aerator by removing it and then cleaning any dirt from the screens that may be causing a blockage. Replace the aerator and test the faucet to see if pressure has been improved. If the pressure has not improved, try step two. Step Two. You can flush your faucet water lines by first shutting off your water supply at the stop. Remove the index button of the handle, screw, and handle. Remove the cartridge or stem and flush thoroughly with water by turning the stop on slowly. Replace the stem or cartridge in the faucet in the exact position you removed it from and replace the handle assembly. Turn the water supply back on. Turn the handle to the open position and see if your flow has improved. If this does not take care of the problem please contact our customer service department at (888) 976-9951.
