[C320-list] Galley faucet?

[Jane & Ken]

Another plus with DELTA faucets is a lifetime warrantee to the original purchaser, parts or entire unit.  Ken

Also used the delta faucet.  It's a nice upgrade and the pull out is great for filling a bucket or large pan.  The only think it helps to know is there is a small filter screen where the hose connects to the sprayer head and will get clogged once in a while and needs to be cleaned to restore full flow.  It was relatively easy just needed to purchase a couple of supply lines (std plumbing) with it.

Rod,

I would suggest upgrading to a single handle faucet with a pull out head. I
did this a couple of seasons ago using Dick Walker's suggestion for the
faucet (Delta). It was easy and is a worthwhile upgrade for about $120. The
faucet is available at all the big box stores. Interestingly enough, this is
the exact same faucet they put on my new 355. If you want the model number
etc., I'm sure I still have it. I also have a pretty decent recollection of
the steps I took for this upgrade (which included a phone call to Dick for
some last minute help!)...

Regards,

Jon Vez

All,



Our galley faucet decided it was time to start leaking while at anchor this
weekend.  It is a Grohe, Model A112.18.1M.  It appears to have ceramic
valves which degraded to a serious leak when I was messing with the valve.
Has any one experienced similar problems with this model?  I would be
interested to know what the part number for the valves are or if the entire
unit was replaced.  Thanks.



Odyssey, #688
