20 Most Recent Kohler K-10430-VS Fort½ Single Lever Handle Kitchen Faucet with Side S... Questions & Answers

Blocked inlet. Supply shutoff not open all the way. Debris in shutoff valve. This happens in older valves with washers.

After removing the oval button cap on the back of the handle loosen the set screw behind it and pull the handle up. The bonnet is threaded so hold the faucet body with one hand (I used a gel hot pad for a better grip) and turn the bonnet counterclockwise. Be careful not to let the entire faucet body turn or it may loosen the bottom bolt that keeps it pulled down onto the base o-ring. Then remove the nut in the same manner and you can simply pull the valve body straight up. To install just reverse this procedure.

After 30 minutes of digging I found only 2 items that may be of help to you. The first is a link for requesting information on Chung Cheng Faucets.
The second piece of information is that as far as I can tell Walwart's is the exclusive purchaser in the US and Canada for Kospak/Chung Cheng Faucets.

I have looked through the shower heads on line at Walwart's and saw a couple similar but not an exact match. I would try taking a pic of it and checking out Walmart's selection

I can even tell you what all the digits mean in your part #. And I'll give you a link to the page and you can do it too.

But as far as specific information regarding the UPC balance valve. No go. And I think your only going to find it through the request form or at Walmart's.
Good Luck.

take the unit apart, starting with the handles and check for small rocks or derbis blocking flow.

Turn the water off to your Kohler K-14030 faucet under the sink. Open the the faucet to make sure the water is completely shut off. Remove the small setscrew cover from the backside of the faucet handle. You should be able to remove it by hand. Insert an 1/8-inch hex wrench in through the opening and into the setscrew. Rotate the setscrew counterclockwise three full turns; you do not need to remove it. Lift the handle off the faucet. Unscrew the bonnet nut, or cover, from on top of the cartridge retaining nut; counterclockwise until removed. This nut should be remove by hand as well. Use a large adjustable wrench to unscrew the cartridge-retaining nut counterclockwise until removed. Grasp the cartridge stem with pliers and lift it out of the faucet body. You may need to gently rock it back and forth until the suction from the seal ring releases.

Kohler gives replacement cartridges for this problem

To remove the plastic insert on your Kohler K-171 kitchen faucet, you can follow these steps: First, turn off the water supply to the faucet. Next, remove the handle of the faucet by unscrewing the set screw on the underside of the handle using a hex wrench or an Allen key. Once the handle is removed, you should see a plastic insert that covers the cartridge. To remove this insert, use a flathead screwdriver to gently pry it off. Once the plastic insert is removed, you should be able to access the cartridge. If you need more detailed instructions, you can refer to the installation manual for your Kohler K-171 kitchen faucet .

Question edited to fix the typos. Always worrying when they discontinue lines, and it makes you wonder why? https://www.us.kohler.com/us/taboret-centerset-bathroom-sink-faucet-with-lever-handles/productDetail/product:420060/420060.htm I normally find that they use steel screws and they stick. Make some sort of a dam around the screw with stout polythene like Ziploc bag and electrical tape to seal the base. Then squirt penetrating oil or WD40 in there to cover the screw head. Top it up a couple of times a day and do that for two days. That should loosen it up and get the oil down the threads. Often it is just easier to buy a new set.

call kohler

you tube is the video website

Likely needs a new cartridge.

Look up the Kohler 800 number. Their parts have a lifetime warranty and they will gladly send a replacement part.

vise grip

I assume you mean the separate H/C valve body as opposed to single handle(bath/shower). https://www.us.kohler.com/us/Taboret-t-handles/productDetail/product:417141/417141.htm?skuId=341208 There is one O ring just below threads of body.

First, your not going to like the solution. There really is no way to solve this on kohler faucets. Some companies make adapters but as far as I know kohler isn't one of them. Hopefully you can cut a hole in the drywall behind and put it where it should be, if not the marble comes back off.

Pop the cap off the faucet handle and tighten the screw under it.

Try turning it to the left

If this is a tub/ shower valve, you installed the cart. upside down. Reversing it should solve the problem. You might have put it in according to instructions but the hot and cold might have been reversed when the valve was plumbed in.
