Delta Model 440: Signature Single Handle Kitchen Faucet - White Questions & Answers
My Delta Kitchen Faucet Model 450 leaks. I have a
If it is a standard delta faucet, the ball is keyed to a small pin in the socket, the
black rubber packing and plastic insert fit together, and the plastic insert is keyed
to the threaded swivel. The springs and seats sit down in recesses in the socket so
everything fits together. On the top of the cover there is an adjustment for tension
which has 4 slots in it, do not overtighten it and remember to use the red capsule
of plumbers grease supplied to extend the life of the seats. Don't try to use the cheezy
wrench to take the allen screw out, but instead a good allen wrench.
(remember to turn off both shutoffs before disassembly and check first).
If you have trouble removing the cover you can use a broken off hacksaw blade
to carefully saw through it or use a dremel with a cutoff wheel and pry it open. Buy a new
one first to indicate how deep to saw.
Hope this helps.
Slow cold water flow in faucet.
Modern faucets are made to be 'Eco', so less water flow and lower water consumption.
If the water flow is a lot more on the hot side, there there is a fault with the cold. There aren't many reasons.
Stuck shut of valve. Disconnect the braided line and open the valve into a bucket.
Or the ceramic cartridge in the faucet is not correctly lined up.
Or remove the strainer on the head, they can block with debris.

I have a delta touch faucet and the blue led light stopped working. The red is still lighting and the touch feature is working properly. How can I fix the blue led light?
- Solid Blue - Normal operation, "Touch" mode is activated.
- Flashing Blue - Normal operation, the hands-free mode is activated.
- Solid Red - Warning mode - Replace batteries as soon as possible. While the water is running Solid Red LED is illuminated. When the water is off, the Red LED flashes once every 5 seconds. The faucet operates normally, solenoid valve is open.
- Rapid Flash Red - Alert Mode - Battery Failure Imminent. The Red LED flashes once a second. The first time the faucet is used, the Red LED will turn ON, the solenoid valve will be opened and remain open. The manual valve must be used until the batteries are replaced.
- Solid Red - Lockdown Mode - Replace Batteries. Extremely Low Batteries - The RED LED is ON, and water will not flow. The solenoid valve is closed and faucet will not operate until batteries are replaced.
- Long Flash Red (2 seconds on / 2 seconds off) - Board error, replace electronics kit, RP53230 See manual bypass of electronics section of Installation instructions.
Delta Charmaine faucet (19962TZ) set screw button
Try using a suction cup to pull the button out. Place the suction cup over the button and pull it outwards. The suction cup should create enough force to pull the button out.
If the suction cup doesn't work, try using a strong magnet to pull the button out. Place the magnet over the button and pull it outwards. The magnet should create enough force to pull the button out.
If the above methods don't work, try using a flathead screwdriver to pry the button out. Place the screwdriver under the button and gently pry it outwards. Be careful not to damage the button or the faucet.
If this does not work, try customer support for Delta.
Delta Faucet RP13740 Bidet-Vacuum Breaker leaks from the top.
For me, the issue was the washer that's exposed on the underside of the circular brass piece that's exposed when you unscrew the top (I wasn't able to find any documentation that explains what anything is called). My washer looked fine, but I removed it, added some silicone o-ring lube i had and re-assembled. Stopped leaking.
