Kitchen Faucet

The kitchen faucet handle on our 2014 Elite is leaking sometimes badly at times.

Does anyone know the brand name and model no.?

Had same issue with the same faucet on our 2014 MS. You can take the handle off and gain access to the cartridge. I was able to tighten the cartridge and the leaking stopped.

Kitchen Faucet

I tried to take the handle off.

Removed the setscrew and all it did was allow the handle to rotate around the cartridge. Tried lifting it off and no go.

How did you get it off?

Mine came off once the set screw was loosened. Can't offer you much more.

Kinda amazes me that they don't put in a name brand--Delta/Moen/etc--and save the owners having to do it themselves later. I have Moen in the kitchen and lav.
But mine aren't as fancy as your model.

Nothing fancy about the fixtures in these things except the price. I'll be installing Moen or Delta once these give up the ghost.

I guess we must be blessed. Other than the color, that looks exactly like the one in our 2010 MS, and we've not had any problems with either the kitchen or bathroom sink faucets. We did have to replace the faucet in the shower, though. So, sorry, but I can't help with how to remove the handle or with what a brand name is.

Wife is getting somewhat testy because she would like to replace the one in the bathroom, but she hates spending the money for one when the original is still working just fine.

We have the same faucets, and will replace, with residential name brand. From the branding on the shower faucet I think they are alibaba.com Chinese very cheap.
If you find a replacement for a two hole faucet let me know. It's a matter of time before they break down. The finish is coming off.
I've asked the factory for replacement but no answer, it's only been a few days. Good taps are expensive.

Sounds like you could surprise her with a new bathroom faucet for Christmas!

HA!!!!

You guys just don't know my wife. First of all, she wouldn't want to spend the money on something that wasn't broke. And probably the only thing I could "surprise" her with would be jewelry that she wouldn't get REALLY upset about. But, even that would get me chewed out royally, and on numerous occasions after the first time. That's what happened after I bought her a Vermont Teddy Bear for Valentine's Day once.

I STILL hear about that, and that's been well over 10 years ago.

Oh, and thanks for reminding me. Our anniversary is on December 25 (yep Christmas Day so I can buy one gift and two cards) and our 50th will be in just over three years from now.

But does remind me we are off on a 2nd AK trip for our 50th next summer...

Well, then. Because of my bad memory, allow me to offer you congratulations in advance. After all, that's only a few months, so we could almost say we are on time anyway. What's a few months compared to 50 years?

Congratulations, and enjoy the trip.

Terry

I've been trying to locate a compatible residential fixture on line. Name brand faucet and model that has been installed would be appreciated.

Many happy years Terry, we are in year 43.

When I replaced ours we went shopping at the big box stores and ended up buying at Ace Hardware when they had a sale, less costly than the big guys and was the same faucet we liked that we saw in those other stores. A bit over a hundred dollars and a easy to install replacement. That was when our trailer was about 2 years old, and the replacment is still going strong. There is a difference in quality.

Thanks for the info I shop online can you provide, Manufacturer, Brand and price. Most residential faucets pull out heads are single hole units.

I don't have any of that information any more, but no matter 1 hole or 3 hole they make a cover plate so doesn't matter what you have. The cover comes in the box and you can use or toss. I just had new granite installed in one home and had only 1 hole drilled for the faucet so I didn't have to use the cover plate. I did purchase a drill bit to drill the Corian top in the trailer for the addition of the Reverse Osmosis drinking water spout. I put that spout a few inches over from the faucet location. There was plenty of room under the sink for the tank and instalation.

Stripit is correct--the faucets are single hole, but they include a cover plate that does a good job of covering the holes that are no longer used--that is how mine is done.
