Help requested - ID Kitchen Faucet
Self | 6/28/18 | Self

Posted on 06/28/2018 5:26:49 PM PDT by wally_bert

The house we moved into late last year has a unique kitchen faucet. We like it a lot but there is a problem.

Recently it started leaking from the top where the spray hose connects. A plumber from a reputable company came out to work on it. IIRC, the faucet is some oddball type he didn't have the parts for. The plumber and my wife looked all over and under for a model or make. I was off earning crumbs at the time. No dice on and ID.

We have tried to contact the former owners who built the place but no success.

I figured I post a couple of pictures and see anyone here knows who made it. Maybe someone here has one like it. Any help is appreciated.

Just remodeled my kitchen and installed this faucet.

It has GREAT water pressure with no modifications.
Almost too much pressure.
The fan spray ABSOLUTLELY knocks all food off the plate before the dishwasher. No pre-wash needed in the sink. Highly recommend! bought from amazon too. https://www.amazon.com/CLOFY-Kitchen-Sink-Faucet-Sprayer/dp/B075JFYS14/ref=sr_1_sc_2?s=hi&ie=UTF8&qid=1530233938&sr=1-2-spell&keywords=clofy+kitche+faucet Best wishes https://www.amazon.com/CLOFY-Kitchen-kitchen-faucets-sprayer/dp/B075JGPV6C/ref=sr_1_sc_3?s=hi&ie=UTF8&qid=1530233938&sr=1-3-spell&keywords=clofy+kitche+faucet Great faucet for the price!

Fapully. Chinese. Get rid of it, probably has a high lead content.

Try replacementparts.com. But we just had a faucet repaired, the plumber said he’d never seen one like it, but I looked up the brand on line at Delta, and even though it was discontinued, they still have the parts for it. Which is good, because it has a built in water filter, and I didn’t want to part with it.

This one looks real similar for $50 new on ebay: https://www.ebay.com/p/Oil-Rubbed-Bronze-Kitchen-Faucet-Pull-Duwn-Sprayer-Sink-Deck-Mount-Mixer-Tap1/20003873073?iid=263052366252&_trkparms=aid%3D222007%26algo%3DSIM.MBE%26ao%3D2%26asc%3D44040%26meid%3D45c4b9f1896a49faa6b824ab11e16250%26pid%3D100005%26rk%3D5%26rkt%3D12%26mehot%3Dag%26sd%3D182524200695%26itm%3D263052366252&_trksid=p2047675.c100005.m1851

"off earning crumbs"

The service call alone for the plumber would have paid for a super deluxe, full wiz-bang, high tech, brushed stainless steel, WIFI capable water faucet.

AND it will connect to SIRI, ALEXIA.

Some suggestions. Need to show the whole faucet. Including the base and the faucet handle. It is too dark and fuzzy, too. Use a better camera. The shades confuse the view. Put some smooth surface behind it, but not white. Too much contrast can cause the details get lost. Maybe a medium gray.

The problem with faucets is that a $50 knockoff can look just at good in a photo as a $500 one. The insides are what sets them apart.

If you’re “earning crumbs”, why not turn off the water supply and just put a $2 cap on it?

Don’t know if it’s truly a quality item, but I’ve bought Chinese plumbing which appeared fully chromed. Turned out to be cheap but shiny plastic. (And not worth installing).

I have a very similar one but I’m currently out of the USA for about 2 weeks, bought mine from overstock 10 years ago. Send me a private message so I have your handle and I’ll send you the sheet on it. In any case I would replace it with some thing nice disassemble and rebuild it. For future use

Watch “War of the Worlds” to understand what you have. Try sneezing on it to see if it goes away.

This is a joke, right? Riiiiight? My f-i-l was a plumber. I’ve worked on faucets from Deltas to Moens to Khoelers to Am. Stds. to you name it. Never saw a cat-o-nine tails lashup like that. Try North Korea. IF it’s American it’s 25+ years old. Sorry.

You may have meant to answer someone else but actually these days you need a long extension spring-loaded monkey wrench doo-dad to even get at the faucet lockdown nut to swap out your sink fixture.

Since you’re on your back, looking up for that nut I recommend a folded towel at the undersink entry point for a degree of comfort. Glasses and a dust mask are recommended for the rust drifting down into your eyes and face.

There’s more while you’re at it - add Hot/Cold cutoffs and use flexible hose for connections. Be sure to set the in/out weight at the top max extension line so it drops cleanly when reset to the base fixture. Or just call a plumber.

I’ve been fixing things for 50 years but will note that anything that looks like a 10 minute job can take a couple of hours and almost every tool in your inventory.

If in doubt, call the plumber.

;-)

I’ve found over the years that removing the sink with fixture in place is in the end the quickest way to do the job. Predicated on using flex tubing of course. Drain pipe connection work easier on the back, less crap falling down and enough light to do the job right, and tubing hook up at the shut-off valves. Hate those sink wrenches.

YMMV
