- Reflex System: The sprayer wand features the Reflex system, ensuring smooth operation, easy movement, and secure docking back into the spout after use. The hose is ultraflexible for maximum range of motion.
- Spray Modes: A single button on the sprayer head allows you to switch between a steady stream and a powerful spray mode.
- Pause Button: An exclusive patented pause button on the sprayer head allows you to temporarily suspend water flow. This is particularly useful when moving the wand outside the sink basin to prevent splashing.
The faucet has a maximum water flow rate of 1.5 gallons per minute (GPM).
Maintenance and Care
To maintain the appearance and functionality of your Moen Woodmere faucet, follow these care guidelines:
- Cleaning: Clean the chrome finish regularly with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid abrasive cleaners, harsh chemicals, or scouring pads, as these can damage the finish.
- Water Spots: The highly reflective chrome finish may show water spots. Wipe the faucet dry after each use to minimize spotting.
- Sprayer Maintenance: Periodically check the sprayer head for mineral buildup, especially if water flow seems reduced. Clean the aerator screen as needed.
- General Inspection: Regularly inspect connections for any signs of leaks or looseness. Address any issues promptly to prevent further damage.
This faucet is designed for durability and long-lasting performance, with many users reporting no issues with leaking or sprayer function even after many years of use.
Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your Moen Woodmere faucet, consider the following common solutions:
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Low Water Flow | Aerator clogged with debris or mineral buildup; faucet designed for 1.5 GPM. | Remove and clean the aerator. If a higher flow rate is desired, contact Moen customer service for information on available flow restrictor removal kits or higher GPM components. |
| Sprayer Not Docking Properly | New faucet stiffness; internal weight or hose obstruction. | Operate the pulldown sprayer multiple times to break in the Reflex system. Ensure the hose and weight under the sink are not obstructed. |
| Leaks or Looseness at Base | Mounting nut loose; worn O-rings or cartridge. | Tighten the mounting nut from underneath the sink. If leaking persists, the internal cartridge or O-rings may need replacement. Contact Moen support for parts or service. |
For issues not listed here or if solutions do not resolve the problem, please contact Moen customer support.
