It sounds to me like the rubber o-rings are getting old. Try posting your concerns on the Peerless Customer Support webpage. They can help you identify the model of your faucet and what repair kit to purchase. (Repair is fairly easy, the faucet is repaired in-place).
hi there:) your problem is caused by the cartridge inside the valve body. could be one of 3 things...1)the cartridge is damaged 2)hard water build up 3)foreign matter. it is not to difficult to replace it yourself: first turn off the water then find the set screw, which holds the handle in place, usually located at the base of the handle and remove it. (look closely/carefully cause it's hiding) then remove the escutcheon ring and the trim sleeve to expose the "bonnet" (lock ring) and remove it. (ritey titey lefty loosey) now you can remove the cartridge and inspect it for debris/damage. if you need a new one just take it w/you to any plumbing supply including home depot and/or lowes and they will help you find it. here is the installation/owners manual from peerless: http://peerless-faucet.com/customer-support/find-repair-parts/documentation/P8760.html hope this helps but if you need anything else just ask:)
Possible causes:
1. you have a air pocket t in the heated water system. You will need to bleed the system.
2. As to pressure, you may have knick in pipe somewhere due to worned plastic pipe.
If you have replaced boots and springs and or cartridges. Did you replace with after market parts or OEM. If after market parts were used use OEM. Hope this helps.
sounds like you need to replace the valve seats. if you shut the water off and remove the handles you will see the valves. you have to remove them and under that you should see these little black things. they come out but have springs under them so be careful. the black things are the valve seats. i would start by replacing them
you can get a new cartridge for it or try pulling it out and putting some faucet grease on it the cartridge should come apart put grease on everything with a black o ring and you should be good to go
Here's the solution from Delta: On a two-handle kitchen or lavatory faucet, if the handles rotate in
the wrong direction, simply rotate the right stem stop assembly 180
degrees. This will change the rotation of the handle to the other
direction.
Depending on the brand there are sometimes "U" clips that slide from the top of the cartridge housing. Others have compression rings that you will need a special tool for. You can find the tool at your local hardware store. If you know the brand you can find a diagram on the internet to determine the type of retainer your faucet has. If I knew the brand I could be more precise.
the kit to rebuild the peerless diverter is very common. take the cartridge to any hardware store and ask the plumbing clerk to assist you in getting the correct kit. good luck
