Review on Delta Two Handle Lavatory Faucet RP25513 Faucet Stem Replacement: Find the Perfect Match by Robert Capers

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Fixed hot water leak on kitchen sink

Delta dual handle kitchen faucet was leaking from under the hot water handle. I replaced the spring and seal but the leak came back after a few weeks. Replacing the faucet stem to the hot water side helped. The old faucet stem is original since 2012 when we installed a new kitchen faucet. The hot water knob turns much smoother now than it did before installing the new faucet stem - this may be due to the new faucet stem and/or not tightening the swivel nut as tight as possible. I'm sure the part is overpriced, but calling a plumber to fix it costs at least three times as much.

Pros
  • nice touch
Cons
  • interval
