TROUBLESHOOTING
PROBLEM: Leaks underneath handle.
CAUSE: Bonnet has come loose or O-ring on cartridge is
dirty or twisted.
ACTION:
1. Move the handle to the off position. Unscrew the handle
screw and remove the handle.
2. Tighten the bonnet by turning it clockwise. Move the
cartridge stem to the on position. The leak should stop
draining out from around the cartridge stem.
3. If the leak does not stop, shut off the water supply. Remove
the bonnet by turning it counter-clockwise. Lift out the
cartridge valve. Inspect the larger O-ring on the cartridge
bonnet and the smaller O-ring on the cartridge stem.
Remove any debris from the O-rings. If either O-ring is
twisted, straighten it out. If either O-ring is damaged,
replace the cartridge by calling Customer Service.
4. Position the cartridge back into the faucet body. Make
sure the ridges on the two sides of the cartridge bonnet fit
into the grooves on the two sides of the faucet body.
Tightly screw the bonnet onto the faucet body.
5. Re-install the handle.
PROBLEM: Water does not completely shut off.
CAUSE: Rubber valve seat is dirty, stuck, or broken.
ACTION:
1. Shut off the cold water supply. If leak stops, the problem
is on the cold side. If leak continues, the problem is on
the hot side. Shut off the hot water supply to determine if
both the cold and hot side have a problem.
2. Remove the handle on the problem side. Loosen the
bonnet by turning it counter-clockwise. Lift out the
cartridge assembly.
3. Inspect the rubber valve seat in the faucet body. If there
is debris or brass scrap on the surface of the seat,

remove it. If the rubber seat is stuck tightly in the water
inlet hole, push it gently with a fingertip so that it moves up
and down smoothly. The spring (smaller end up) must be
replaced underneath the valve seat. If the rubber valve
seat is worn out or broken, replace the cartridge by calling
Customer Service.

the ridges on the two sides of the cartridge bonnet fit into
the grooves on the two sides of the faucet body. Tightly
screw the bonnet onto the faucet body.
5. Re-install the handle.
