If you wish to repair a Waltec faucet, switch the cartridge within the handle. Including the stem and washers, the 2 devices that switch on water whenever you turn the handle. Usually, the little rubber washers within the cartridge put on out first, so replacing it refurbishes the tap, coming back it to some like-new condition. You do not need a plumber, only a couple of fundamental tools and parts.
Switch off your water by shutting both valves underneath your led faucet (typically located within the cabinet and underneath the sink).
Remove the retaining screw on the top from the handle. In case your faucet handles possess a plastic cover, take it off first by pulling it by hands. Then turn the screw left having a screwdriver or Allen wrench, with respect to the screw. Pull the handle off following the screw has gone out.
Take away the locknut by loosening it having a large set of pliers. Lift the cartridge and stem from the faucet base by pulling them up and out. Remove the seat washer using the tip from the screwdriver.
Insert a brand new seat washer in to the faucet and hang it in to the washer hole. Install the replaceable cartridge on the top from the washer and tighten the locknut together with your pliers. Switch the handle and retaining screw.
Test the tap by activating water and operating it. When the leak still occurs, take away the handle and tighten the locknut more, or look into the cartridge and washer for damage and replace if required.
