Faucets seem relatively simple, right? You turn on or tap, and water flows out miraculously. But, depending on the type of faucet, some have numerous components that may become damaged or fail to function correctly over time. Here are some of the key parts of your plumbing fixture that could require a repair or replacement in due time:
- Cartridge: This controls the flow of water into your sink. When it is damaged, it may lead to leaks or problems with water temperature regulation.
- O-Ring Seals: These are small seals or rubber washers that prevent leaks around the base of the faucet handle. Eventually, the O-Ring seals will get worn out or damaged over time and lead to leaks.
- Valve Seat: This part sits at the base of the handle and acts as a seal for the faucet system and a spout where water comes out. When the valve seat corrodes, it can lead to leaking near the spout.
- Aerator: This part is responsible for the water pressure, and because of this it reduces water splashing in the sink. The aerator mixes air and water to reduce splashing and conserve water. Clogs in the aerator can affect water flow.
- Sprayer Diverter: Kitchen faucets with sprayers have a diverter that directs water to the spout or the sprayer. A malfunctioning diverter can disrupt the flow of water.
