Water is coming down from upstairs or it is back pressure from the water heater. If it is the water heater, it can come out of either side of the faucet.

How do you fix a wobbly moen kitchen faucet?

To fix a wobbly Moen kitchen faucet, first, turn off the water supply and disconnect the faucet from the sink. Check the mounting nuts beneath the sink and tighten them using a basin wrench or pliers. If the faucet is still wobbly, inspect the base for any missing or damaged washers and replace them as needed. Reattach the faucet and turn the water supply back on to ensure stability.


Why does the moen kitchen faucet still leak after replacing the cartridge?

If your Moen kitchen faucet continues to leak after replacing the cartridge, it could be due to several reasons. First, ensure the new cartridge was installed correctly and seated properly. Additionally, check for worn-out O-rings or seals that may also need replacement. Finally, inspect the faucet body for cracks or damage that could cause leaks.

My kitchen sink faucet won't dispense hot water and the vaule is on?

Try removing the faucet aerator. If this still doesn't solve the problem check under the kitchen sink for kinked or bent pipes. Straighten them out. Doing both these things solved it for me.Now all I need to do is find an aerator that feeds more gpm so the hot water heater comes on and the water doesn't splash all over the place.

Can you disconnect the sprayer and still use the faucet?

If the sprayer hose screws onto the faucet, you can get a cap for that fitting. If it pushes into the faucet, I do not believe there is any plug available for that type. You have to have something on the hose fitting or water will come out when you turn the faucet on.


Why would a kitchen faucet turn itself on when using the washer or outside faucets?

The kitchen faucet tap is threaded and is kept stationary by an upward force from the water supply. A sudden surge of pressure from somewhere else in the pipeline releases the pressure on the tap allowing the tap to move freely. While there is still a little pressure remaining on the tap it will of course take the path of least resistance and open up a little. This seems to happen more frequently as the tap threads continue to wear. Wow that answer above??? My guess is that you have a Moen faucet they are known to do this when subjected to high line pressures and the pressure fluctuates. Check your line pressure with a gauge it should be 80 psi or less or you need a pressure reducing valve installed. The faucet probably needs the cartridge replaced. == Answer== The delta two handle faucet will do the samething. And i think any washerless faucet could do it. Replace seats, spings and cartridges.

Does delta faucet own peerless faucet?

Delta Faucet Co. isa company owned by Masco Corporation out of Detroit, MI. In 1971 Masco introduced the Peerless Faucet for the DIY market.
