I checked online at www.plumbingwarehouse.com/american-standard-kitchen-faucet-hamilton-4040. There is a diagram that shows a seal kit that probably needs to be replaced. The diagram is really good and shows a complete breakdown of your faucet. I hope this helps.

SOURCE: kitchen spout leaks

Hi buffy9,

I'm Harvet the Master Plumber.

Your question is: You have an American Standard two faucet in my kitchen and the base of the spout leaks at the base. How do you remove it and replace the washers?

Are we talking about an American Standard two HANDLE faucet or one of the single handle models?

Thank you,
Harvey your Master Plumber

SOURCE: Faucet leak from the connection with spout.

Return the new faucet for another one. The o-rings in the base of the spout are leaking. Either installed wrong at the factory or defective rings.

Don't fight with it, trade for a different one.

How do I replace a spout O-ring on an American Standard Jasmine Hi-Flow Kitchen Faucet, 3821.831 or .834. I'm trying to get the spout assembly off to get access to replace. Thanks in advance!

The base of spout is like a nut unscrew then lift off spout install new o-rings be sure to use plumbers grease or vaseline to coat new o-ring ,reinstall as was disassembled that should take care of problem.You may need a strap wrench to remove spout base nut.

American Standard Jasmine 3821.834 leaking where spout enters base

How long have you had this? is everythign tight? check underneath the sink to ensure all connections are tight. The spout may have came loose, and it may not be able to be fixed, may need to be replaced.
