This valve needs to be taken apart and lubricated with pure silicon grease (available at plumbing or builder's supply houses.) Good luck.

I have a Moen Ascent kitchen faucet. The chrome handle that is attached somehow to the control valve underneath has come loose. How is the handle attached to the valve and what is the remedy?

Moen kitchen faucet handles in this series are held onto the cartridge stem with a set screw. First turn off the water supply to the faucet. You need to move the handle until you can see the small plug button that covers the set screw. This is ~3/4" from the edge of the handle. Remove the plug with a small screwdriver or other levering tool and adjust the handle if needed to get it on the cartridge stem. Then find the appropriate Allen wrench to tighten the screw. (It may be a 3/32" but this isn't always true.) To test if you have it tight, turn on the water and see if the water is easy to turn on and off. Turn off the water and replace the plug button. Then turn the water one last time.

To see a parts diagram for a couple of models of Ascent faucets, see https://www.moen.com/support/Ascent/Ascent_Chrome_onehandle_high_arc_pulldown_kitchen_faucet/S71708 or https://www.moen.com/support/Ascent/Ascent_Classic_stainless_onehandle_high_arc_pullout_kitchen_faucet/S71709CSL .

I hope this helps.

(Do not over-tighten the set screw. This could damage the cartridge or handle.)

Sticking of KWC Suprimo faucet

My bathroom faucet handle (not same brand as yours) was so hard to turn that it pulled the base around with it on the vanity when I jerked it. I used an Allen wrench to take out one of the set screws holding the handle on, put the tiny straw of a WD40 can in the set screw hole, squirted WD40 inside the handle, replaced the setscrew, and worked the handle to and fro a few times to lubricate the inside. No more sticking!

How do you internally adjust the hot water setting of a Symmons pressure balancing mixing valve?

  • To set the shower valve handle limit stop, remove the screw holding on to the handle and remove the handle.
  • Remove the round dome cover by turning in a counter-clockwise direction. At this point you will see a small slotted screw head that is visible in the valve cap.
  • Place the handle back on the valve stem (loosely) and open the valve turning the handle until the maximum desired position is reached. This may require turning the limit stop screw (T-34) counter-clockwise (see CAUTION above). To most accurately and safely verify the temperature of the hot water, place a thermometer in a tumbler of water filled from tub outlet.
  • Shut off valve and re-attach dome and handle.

    Delta 476 faucet is leaking. I purchased the proper parts - RP4993 seats and springs and RP25 O-Rings for single handle faucet. Do we need any specific tools? Would you please be very...

    Here is where to find the manual for your faucet. The only tools you should need are a pair of slip-joint pliars for the main ring and the hex key tool that came with the replacement parts. Remove the handle by loosening the hex screw on the underside. Make sure to turn off the water before you go any further and you will need to turn off both hot and cold.

    Remove the dome-shaped cover either by hand or with some pliars.

    Pull out the ball with the stem in it and underneath there will be two rubber washers with two springs underneath. Remove the washers and springs and put the new ones in. Put in the new stem (ball with stem) taking care to line up the slot in the side with the nub inside the base. Replace the round washer on top with the triangle hole in it and put the dome shaped cover back on.

    Before turning the water on, use the back side of the hex-key tool to tighten the nylon ring that screws down into the dome shaped cover. Put the handle back on and try the faucet, if it moves too hard, loosen the nylon screw a bit, if too loose then tighten it. Once it "feels right" you can reattach the handle and turn the water back on.

    I suggest turning on the water slowly and look for leaks. Not as difficult as it sounds.

    The handle is loose and the screw seems to be as tight as possible. It is a Moen single handle tub set.

    might be that the spacer is missing. there is a small brass spacer located between the handle and the stem. if this is missing, your handle will feel like it's loose.

    Red power switch

    you either have a bad switch or your handle has come loose. in several cases with this vac the handle comes loose and the vac will start acting funny. if you look at the back of the handle and start looking down the first screw you see make sure its tight.
