When I turn off my kitchen faucet the water does not immediately stop. It drizzles out for a few seconds and then stops. What is the problem?

There are many faucets that do this. There is water between the end of the faucet and the valve. You turn it off, and the water comes out of that area. Unfortunately, there's not much you can do about it.


Why does water flow freely from my kitchen spray attachment but does not flow from my faucets?

If it is a standard Moen kitchen faucet, it's because the diverter piece in the faucet got some dirt in it, or the rubber parts of it are swollen from the water. Common problem, and an easy fix if you know (or can figure out) how to take it apart. Don't forget to turn the water off!

If you have city water and want to turn it off at the main valve while on vacation is there anything that should be done when turning it off or on?

Yes, make sure you turn off power to the water heater. Also shut off the icemaker. No. Just turn it off. Just remember to turn it back on before you open any of your inside faucets. And you also need to turn off the hot water heater.


What should you do if your shower would not turn off after you took a shower and you turned off the main to the house but it kept on running and it slowed when you opened other faucets?

The shower valve needs to be repaired! As for the water not shutting off when you turned off the main that is also needing replacement when it shut of by turning on other faucets you were simply diverting the flow from the leaking main shut off.

What could be the reason for not getting water from the kitchen sink faucets when there is full water pressure on all the other house faucets?

The water valve under the sink is turned off or has gone bad. It is possible that there is a blockage in the faucet itself. I'd start by ensuring that the water valve is turned off, and take the faucet apart and look for anything out of the ordinary.


I need to turn off water how are the pipes not going to freeze and break through winter?

you will need to drain the storage tank == First, you turn the water off at the main, then turn on all the faucets and let them drain until there is not any water coming out. The absence of water will prevent their freezing.


What direction are faucets supposed to turn?

AnswerIt depends on the manufacturer.AnswerIf they are "fluted" handles (uniform throughout their perimeter), they should both turn clockwise to shut off. If they are "wing" handles (a blade sticks out, somewhere on their perimeter), then the wings should push outward to turn off, and inward to turn on. In other words, the left handle turns clockwise to shut off, and the right handle turns counterclockwise to turn off.

Why is there a whining noise from recently installed faucet in basement?

Try turning off the water at the main. Turn on all of the faucets in the house and let them drain. Turn the main back on. Might be some air in the line.
