The supply to the washer, the hot is supposed to be on the left side. On the machine, most have an H or a C beside the connection. Nothing will happen if they are reversed. Turn the washer on set on Cold and if Hot comes out, reverse them.
Switch off supply, unscrew top pf faucet, remove stem and washer (or cartridge) take it to store, buy identical one, come home and re-fit in reverse order.
There is an attachment for this that screws on the spout in place of the screen. Any plumbing supply should have it, just explain what you want. It is the same type of fitting as on an air hose if you have seen that.
Possibly the washer is broken. Turn off supply underneath, remove the handle and then the screw stem. Take these parts to Home depot and get a new washer or repair kit.
a washer is generally a rubber washer that tightens and seals as sometimes they will go bad and have to change it..
Turn main water supply off in your basement. Adjust or replace shower shut off knob.
Proably the faucet has a worn out washer, replacing the washer should fix the problem.
It fills the washer with water from the source, Theres usually a cut-of valve or faucet on the wall near the washer for it.
Washer worn out, washer seat damaged/corroded The most likely reason is that the sealing washer or seat in the tap/faucet is defective.
more flow but do not last as long as beveled ===
Supply line clogged. The end of the stem where the washer is may have broken off so that the faucet isn't really opening. Shut the water off and take the stem out of the faucet and see what it looks like.
When you shut the faucet off, the screw pushes a rubber washer against the opening inside the faucet and stops the water. The screw moves in and out in the handle to do this.
