- If water is not flowing from the faucet, check for a clicking sound coming from the pilot valve.
If there is a clicking sound, the issue is likely with the membrane of the solenoid valve. Cleaning or replacing the membrane should resolve the problem.
If there is no clicking sound, consider the following possibilities:
Measure the battery voltage. If it is very low (0-4V), there may be a short circuit in the sensor or cable, causing excessive power consumption. Replace the sensor as a faulty sensor can drain the battery quickly.
-
If the battery voltage is below 5.4 to 6.4V, the battery is flat. Replace it with a new one (typically, the battery should last 2-5 years).
If the battery voltage is below 5.9V and there is no water flow, the pilot valve may be clogged with dirt or debris. A voltage below 5.9V is insufficient to open or close the pilot valve, resulting in the faucet's inability to operate. Replace the solenoid valve (Note: The entire solenoid valve needs to be replaced as it is not possible to replace the pilot valve alone).
If the battery voltage is fine and close to the voltage of a new battery (~6.2V), the operation of the pilot valve should be tested using the test cable.
If the pilot valve produces a clicking sound during the test, the sensor is faulty and needs to be replaced (as in case A).
-
If the pilot valve does not produce a clicking sound, the pilot valve is faulty and the entire solenoid valve needs to be replaced.
If water flow does not stop, it may be due to dirt or impurities entering the pilot valve or reaching the pilot valve membrane. Cleaning the membrane or replacing the pilot valve will resolve the issue. To prevent leaking faucets, it is important to install one-way valves and litter filters provided with the faucet.
If the sensor has a red blinking light, it indicates that the battery is flat and needs to be replaced.
If the batteries drain quickly, it is likely that the sensor is faulty, causing excessive power consumption. Replacing the sensor will resolve the issue. With a functioning sensor, the batteries should last several years. To replace the sensor, you will need to disassemble the faucet. Instructions on how to do this can be found in detail page.
How to Troubleshoot Common Faucet Issues
When encountering faucet problems, it's essential to identify and address them promptly. Here are some common faucet issues and troubleshooting steps:
- Dripping Faucets
Dripping faucets can be caused by worn-out washers or damaged cartridge valves. Replacing these components can often resolve the issue. Ensure the water supply is turned off before making any repairs.
- Low Water Pressure
Low water pressure may result from clogged aerators or mineral deposits. Cleaning or replacing the aerator can help restore water pressure. If the problem persists, consult a professional plumber.
- Faucet Handle Issues
Loose or stuck faucet handles can be fixed by tightening or lubricating the handle mechanism. In some cases, replacement parts may be required. Refer to the manufacturer's instructions or seek professional assistance.
Steps for Proper Cleaning and Maintenance
Regular cleaning and maintenance are essential for the longevity of your fixtures.
Follow these steps for proper care:
- Gather Cleaning Supplies
Prepare a mild cleaning solution, soft cloth, toothbrush, and non-abrasive cleaner suitable for the specific fixture material.
- Remove Mineral Deposits
Use the cleaning solution and a toothbrush to remove mineral deposits from faucets, shower heads, and other fixtures. Rinse thoroughly with water and dry with a soft cloth.
- Clean Aerator Screens
Aerator screens on faucets can become clogged with debris. Remove the aerator and clean it thoroughly with a non-abrasive cleaner, ensuring all blockages are cleared.
- Inspect and Tighten Connections
Regularly inspect the connections between fixtures and pipes for any leaks or loose connections. Use appropriate tools to tighten any loose fittings.
