Best Answer

In nearly every modern faucet, there is a trim cap on the top center of the knob that is a friction fit. You should be able to get a fingernail under that trim cap and pop it off. Almost certainly you will find a Philips screw under it; remove that screw and the knob should then come off. You may need to apply some force to the knob; crud getting between knob and shaft, carried there by water, will tighten the fit over the years.

How do you adjust temperature on a delta tub faucet?

The temperature adjustment on a single handle Delta faucet is in the valve operation itself, however, the high temperature limit is adjustable, and is probably what you are referring to. To adjust it, you have to remove the handle from the trim. Beneath the handle are two geared rings which control the high temperature limit. Remove the inner ring (they may both fall out) and turn it CCW (if memory serves..) to raise the high limit. If I got it backwards, turn the ring CW and try again.

What should you do if you have tiled tub surround and the faucet pipe is too short and you can put the faucet back on but it will just turn a couple of times and is not tight enough to prevent leaking?

Examine the pipe, you can probably turn it out using a pipe wrench, and replace the pipe with one that is 1/2 inch longer. Alternatively, if you can get a couple turns on the pipe, just wrap some teflon tape around the pipe and see if that stops the leak.AnswerI would change out nipple to longer one, and then get a new Delta spout with brass adap. When you install spout it will go back to tile all the way. I think if you added .5in. nipple it would make it to long, then it would not go to tile wall all the way. Or do the teflon tape around pipe and see what happens. ANS 3 - The piece of pipe sticking out of the wall is a 'nipple', unscrew it with a pipe wrench, measure it and get on 1/2 inch longer, put pipe compound or thread tape on the end and screw it into the fitting . Now re-fit your faucet.

How do replace washer in a kitchen Delta CL faucet?

I went to the Delta website, which has full instructions. You will need to buy a repair kit from a hardware for your model. If you can't remove the faucet because of water deposits, squirting or spraying white vinegar into the seam will help free it up. (I was able to do this successfully) Look in this section of the Delta Website: http://www.deltafaucet.com/customersupport/faq/Leaks/index.html

How do you replace a delta single handled bathroom sink faucet washer?

It doesn't have a washer, it uses two small cups with springs under them. A repair kit is available for about $4. Shut the water off. Take the handle off. There should be a set screw in the front of the handle at the bottom. May have a cover plug in the hole. Under the handle is the ring or cap that holds the cartridge in. Unscrew this and the control ball that the handle was attached to will lift out ant the cups and springs are in the hole under the ball. Replace both cups and springs with new and reassemble the faucet. The springs may have one end smaller than the other, if so, that end goes up. Check the bottom of the ball for rust. It can build up and tear up the new cup fairly quickly. It should clean off fairly easily. Don't use anything too abrasive as this will leave scratches which will tear the cup also. Baking soda, white tooth paste should do the job.
