This faucet has suddenly gone to a very low flow. All other faucets in the house are working normally. Will this fix it? Delta indicates its possible.

Not likely. Typically you replace the cartridge when faucet is dripping or wont shut off completely. Does the faucet have an aerator? Typically low flow can be a result of build up on the aerator. https://www.plumbingsupply.com/about-faucet-aerators.html If your faucet has a handheld sprayer the jets can get clogged and soaking it in a container of white vinegar can help break up and dissolve the build up.

Not sure about restoring flow. Mine was dripping and replacement fixed it. Easy install

If it happened quicky and 1) dishwasher flow appears ok and 2) no other flow problems in the house, cartridge is likley the culprit. Just the same, be sure to check that faucet screen didn't get clogged with something.

My faucet was leaking and replacing this part fixed it. I had no flow issues.

It's possible but i doubt it , it's probably your shut off valve below the sink , that's what happened to mine but i bought this item because it started dripping and wasting water because it was old and worn out.

My hose sprayer works when my diverter is not in use. Did your sprayer work before attaching the diverter? Perhaps the mechanism inside of the faucet, that diverts water to the hose sprayer, broke?? Maybe it is just coincidental that it happened after attaching the diverter?? Sorry I can't be more helpful.

Yes, replace that valve. High water pressure can cause damages in faucets, etc.

we live in the country (well water) so water flow has never been great! We also have two faucets in our shower, one for hand held and the other not, I keep both on for an ok flow!!! I relly like the Delta faucet!

Yes that was the unfortunate thing that happened with us also. We went to lowes and got a new one to replace the one that came with it. Also we had to go back in and reseal so it worked with the plumbing. Kind of a pain. But we love the sink. Good luck !!

You can contact Delta @ www.deltafaucet.com/customersupport/index.html to inquire about purchasing parts or warranty parts. I hope this is helpful.

I had a similar problem and I couldn't turn the valve all the way to the left (to hot). My contractor had to adjust the internals so that the valve could turn all the way and that solved the problem. (I had an earlier problem after the new valve was temporarily installed that caused other faucets not be as hot as they should. My understanding is there was a plug missing in the Delta that allowed the hot and cold water in the system to mix. In either event, a plumber should be able to diagnose and correct the problem).

While I enjoy the looka and functionality of the faucet, I have found I have substantially less water pressure than my previous faucet. I think it has something to do with higher effieciency with all new applicances and fixtures. They may have higher efficiency by reducing output but I have to keep the water on longer to clean the dishes....not very efficient!

Your question might be a good one to ask Hansgrohe. My faucet is relatively new and has been without problems since its installation.

If its new than there's a problem worth sending back - if older its probably caused by mineral buildup in the valve - Very difficult to repair - don't try it - you won't get it back together. these faucets need quality water filters to prevent this problem

I ended up choosing a different faucet. Sorry. I dont have any information on the subject. Good luck.

I installed the sink/faucet. They work very well. My wife and I HAVE NOT encountered any loud noises when turning the water on - in fact our faucet runs rather quietly. Has anyone encountered the sink not fitting flat, having a slight wobble/turn? Thanks

Maybe try shutting off water and relieve any water pressure on the valve by opening up faucets. Reset power to valve. Maybe you'll hear valve re open

The faucet needs to be left in the on position. It wont run constantly, just when the water level drops. The valve will allow it too fill and then shut back off.

brenda : always best to confer with the manufacturer, but i would check two things first ..... 1) the temperature control on the front - increases or decreases warmth 2) the p.s.i. of the water pressure going into the unit may be impaired ..... rendering the unit down to a trickle ...... or also the flow could be constricted due to another problem in the line. it is difficult to diagnose not being there on premises. i have 5 units in my home and they are all working as they should. good luck. bill

This may be your water heater. Try raising the temperature of the heater and try again. I do not have this issue with the faucet but had it previously before changing the degrees on my water heater unit.

WE had a similar problem. There is a cartridge inside the handle that goes bad and Moen will replace it. Water leaks from the cartridge area and goes down the stem of the faucet into the cabinets and floor below. We had this problem twice and Moen did send us a cartridge but we had two leaks and eventaully Amazon gave us a refund and we bought a Delta faucet which has been fine.
