SOURCE: Faucet and shower head leaking

Is it a single handle faucet set? If so it sounds like you need to replace the stem in the faucet itself. You can get to this with a screw driver and a pair of pliers. Turn off the water to the faucet (hot and cold) and remove the handle. Once you do this you will see a clip that hols the stem in place.Remove this clip and pull the stem out with the pliers and you can find a replacement at your local Lowe's, Home Depot, etc. Pay attention to the directions when reinstalling. there is a tab that determines the top side of the stem.

SOURCE: DELTA SINGLE HANDLE GOURMET SPRAY faucet

Hello. Actually it is not difficult to remove the faucet. If you can pull up the sink with faucet attached it will be very easy. Otherwise get under the sink with a flashlight and you will see what tools are needed. A special extendable faucet wrench from Home Depot would come in very handy. Regards. Joe

My delta shower faucet has gotten very stiff and squeaks when turning on and off, how do I fix? It is a single lever with temp adjustment on it

This will happen over time due to the buildup of solids in the water. You can take the lever off by removing the setscrew (usually a small hexhead on the underside). Whatever parts you remove can be cleaned. Use a cleaner like CLR that is designed to remove calcium and lime. Follow the directions. If there are gaskets in the parts you remove, you might want to work a little WD-40 into them before you put it back together. It won't be the same as new, but it will help.

The the faucet out and take it apart and clean off the deposits of calcium and rust from the moving parts and then lube the parts with Silicone grease and reassemble

We have a Delta 172 single handle faucet. We had our hot water heater replaced. Now it takes longer for hot water to get to the faucet. Could debris (calcium build up, etc.) from the replacement get in...

Yes, debris from water heater replacements often breaks lose and gets stuck. The problem could potentially be anywhere between water heater and the faucet. The faucets shut off valves or the Delta faucet cartridge itself. Turn the hot and cold water valves off under the sink and disconnect the water supply lines from the faucet. aim the water supply lines into a bucket and turn the valves on one at a time. If there is a significant reduction in the water pressure and volume on the hot water side, you need to replace the shut off valve. If there is no reduction in water pressure, you need to clean and/or replace the Delta faucet cartridge. Contact Delta to receive free replacement parts.

My Delta type kitchen sink handle is loose and keeps shutting water off. I have to turn it up a lot to keep it going. I could remove Red / Blue plug and do not know what to do beyond to tighten it?

Inside the handle of a Delta kitchen sink faucet is a small setscrew. You need an 1/8th inch allean wrench or Delta faucet tool to lossen the setscrew. Rotat the screw about 3 full turns counterclockwise, this should be emough to remove the hnalde. Under the Delta faucet handle is a white plastic ring with four notches. If you have a Delta faucet tool, you place it in two of the notches and slowly turn the ring clockwise to tighten the Delta ball assemby. This will keep the handle from moving by itself. If you do not have Delta faucet tool, use a pair of needle nose pliers in stead.

Adjusting single leaver faucet handle

The little wrench tightens the tension ring that fits on the inside of the retaining nut right under the handle. You fit the little "arms" in the notches.

Kitchen faucet won't turn all the way off

You need to replace the washer on the stem. It's a Delta so it's possible that you have the type where the washer is actually in the very bottom of the manifold instead of on the stem.
