Remove the handles. See if the chrome slip nuts holding the stems in are corroded. If they are, the cartridges may not be fully seated or the o -rings that seal around the cartridges may need to be replaced. If either of these is the case you can tell for sure by turning the stems to the on position with the handles removed and looking for water seeping around the cartridge. If none of the above is the cause then check to see if the aerator (screen on the spout) is loose or corroded sending a light spray back towards the faucet body that looks like a leak. If this is the case remove and clean the aerator, then reinstall it making sure not to cross thread it. If none of the above, replace the faucet. Be sure to call Delta first before replacing because they have a lifetime warranty and you just might get your faucet for free!
Hi, i would suggest to check the faucet and make some adjustment for proper water flow and if you already replaced the faucet then this problem should not occur , i have had same problem and i had called A-General for this and they fixed easily all issues ,please take some help http://www.a-general.com
If you are talking about the aerator at the end of the spout,take a pair of pliers and a rag put the rag on the aerator and turn counter clockwise(take care to make sure rag is covering all the area and that should help you get it off.If you plan on replaceing aerator which is about $6 just take the pliers and take it off.
The screen is held in place by a threaded piece on the end of the faucet - collectively the screen along with the threaded piece is called the aerator. The aerator must be unscrewed to remove and clean the screen. A pair of pliers or a pipe wrench may be necessary if the aerator is tightened beyond hand tight or if corroded with mineral deposits.
it would only be aerator if hot and cold were low..what happened is when u shut angle stop off on hot water to replace assmbly..the washer on angle stop separated and is blocking the supply
Take the hoses off on the bottom of the faucet and blow air back through the faucet. Dirt can plug up the small openings right where the water enters the faucet. By the way I hope you checked the areator on the end of the spout, Dirt can plug that up also.
