Maintenance
Regular cleaning and maintenance will help preserve the finish and functionality of your Delta Faucet.
- Cleaning the Finish: Clean the faucet regularly with a soft cloth and warm, soapy water. Avoid abrasive cleaners, harsh chemicals, or scouring pads, as these can damage the Venetian Bronze finish.
- Aerator Maintenance: If water flow decreases, the aerator may be clogged. Unscrew the aerator from the end of the spout, clean any debris, and reattach.
- Side Sprayer: Ensure the side sprayer hose retracts smoothly. Keep the hose free from obstructions under the sink.
Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your faucet, refer to the following common troubleshooting steps:
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Low Water Flow | Clogged aerator or debris in supply lines. | Clean the aerator. Flush supply lines by turning off water, disconnecting lines, and briefly turning water on to clear debris. |
| Leaking from Spout | Worn out DIAMOND Seal valve cartridge. | Contact Delta Faucet for a replacement cartridge under warranty. |
| Leaking from Side Sprayer Hose Connection | Loose connection or damaged O-ring. | Ensure the hose connection under the sink is securely attached. Check for damaged O-rings and replace if necessary. |
| Water Temperature Issues | Improper hot/cold supply connections or issues with water heater. | Verify hot and cold supply lines are connected correctly. Check your water heater settings. |
