Just fyi, before buying new o-rings check to make sure yours didn't just come unseated. This was the case in my Moen single handle faucet. The o-ring had partially come out of the groove of the plastic piece it sits in but was otherwise okay. I suspect pivoting the faucet from one sink to the other unseated it over time. Reseating it fixed my leak.

[@SkyManagement]

You don’t have to. But, when rolling the o-ring down if you put the top one in first, the bottom one can roll over the top of it without getting stuck in the groove. Probably more important when removing them. If you do the bottom one first, it can pass over the top one. Without getting stuck in the groove and have to dig it out again.

Yes! Most of the time we have to fix this issue it is because a resident has seen water dripping under their sink. Water comes out around the collar or “neck” of the sink and runs down and finds a way underneath . Ultimately dripping down below. If your sink has water coming out around the collar while on… this should take care of you! Good luck! 🍀

The link to the o-rings in the description shows how to measure them if you want to order individual ones in the size you need. We have multi-family properties, so having extras around is never a bad thing. Lol If you are getting calcium build up around the base, then i would guess it is probably leaking.

I yank and pull up on it and it moves maybe a 1/16" of a inch up and down but doesn't come off. I've tried tapping it up with a wrench and still no luck. The spout spins and moves super freely but no luck getting it to come completely off. I am still waiting for Price Pfister to get back to me with the model number and replacement parts as its under the lifetime warranty.

[@SkyManagement]

I have had them be pretty stuck before. I usually just wiggle the neck up and down until it breaks loose. I know that’s a real technical explanation. Lol. If that doesn’t work, you could try shooting some wd40 in there. To help loosen it up.

Make sure the water is off in case you have a ball joint style, then you can tap around on the ring with your wrench or something to hopefully break loose any build up. Then if you still can't get it, you can use a pipe wrench, but I'd put a towel or something around it because it can tear up the finish on it pretty easy.

At 3:50, when you slip the last o-ring on the top spout part, was that a new o-ring, too, or did you just replace the other two?

That ring is a plastic one. Some repair kits come with replacement ones, but it’s not really a seal. It sort of just helps guide the spout when you spin it. I typically reuse them unless it’s broken for some reason.

I’m confused I bought the o ring set u linked and they all seem to small even tho my faucet looks like the one is this video? Am i missing something?

[@SkyManagement]

It can be confusing which is why we linked a universal set that should cover most faucets. There are many single handle tap faucets that look “similar”. I would think one of the larger o rings in that set would work. They are meant to be a tight fit so you might need to stretch them over the top so they slide into the channels . When in doubt you can remove one of the rings and take it to a local hardware store and they should have something that would work. I’m sorry you are having issues.

Any hardware store should have them, Lowes, Home depot, and so on. I would suggest removing the old ones and taking them with you to the store to make sure you get the right size. You can order them on amazon as well, but you would have to measure them carefully to make sure you get the right ones.

[@oldengguy]

Be sure to get the right ones. I tried getting the closest I could find with help of someone at the hardware store, and they did not work. I ultimately found the ones designed for my old faucet, and the worked perfectly.

[@canadianjaneoriginal]

great video! what if it leaks also under handle that opens and closes ( my main issue). Does anything inside the center need changing as well?

[@SkyManagement]

It is possible that it would need a new cartridge. If you replace seals like the video and it is still leaking... it needs a new cartridge. Turn water off before you replace the cartridge... :-)

[@canadianjaneoriginal]

Sky Management I followed the steps but the handle will not come off! I am stuck on this part because if I force would something break? I checked and the one screw I took out did nothing. Its a cheap Waterpick one lever with spray detachment nozzel. Its ok if I need to change valve and seals, if only I can get it off :(

[@SkyManagement]

The handles can be stuck on pretty good sometimes. If you have removed the set screw then I would wiggle it and try to force it off. (Make sure the water is turned off) The worst that would happen would be the top of the cartridge could break off. But, if you think the Carthage may need to be replaced anyway, then that might not be a big loss.

[@canadianjaneoriginal]

Sky Management sadly just found out my faucet is discontinued and no parts like valve are available so on to a new faucet by another brand.

[@canadianjaneoriginal]

Sky Management the handle finally came off pulling upwards hard. The rest was stuck. Nothing was getting anything to budge. Took pics went to hardware store and they said this brand discontinued kitchen faucets and no parts are available. So the whole faucet needs to be replaced. I can’t open it past getting handle off. Cartridge cannot be removed its inset. The geniuses did not put a hex to remove it or anything the screws off.

[@gazaspartanempire5697]

How do you know what brand faucet you have ?what size o ring used ?

[@SkyManagement]

It’s best to remove the old ones and take them with you to the hardware store to match them. But if you are going to order them, you could try to measure the diameter. There are also variety packs that have lots of sizes in them but this would be much more expensive. A single set is only a dollar or two.

@@SkyManagement It looks like you got it. It's difficult getting down there with my bad back, but I figured that you must know what you're taking about, so I made the effort to see where the water was coming from. It wasn't a leak, it was just water pouring unhindered out of the CENTRAL nozzle. So, it looks like I have to reconnect one of the hoses to the Central connection; then, I have to decide what to do with the...no, wait, the diagram explains. I was right to connect the hot and cold water lines to the two outside threaded cylinders extending below the sink. Then, the sprayer has to be connected through the central hole.. I will then have a sprayer. My old set-up had the hole for the sprayer plugged-up. and that was good enough for me. (Who needs a sprayer?) However, I have no objections to having one, and if my new faucet set requires that it be installed, so be it.THANKS A MILION!!! I THINK I CAN TAKE IT FROM HERE.

So what caused the leak? The rings are not of the right size? I have a Moen kitchen faucet installed and in a couple of days this problem began to occur. After a few months, it has gotten more serious! The plumber did not admit this problem and said it is because I let water splash on it.

If it started again immediately, then it could be that the seals were the wrong size. The carriage can also leak out of the top and it will look like the same issue.
