How to Take Off a Grohe Bathroom Faucet

Removing a Grohe bathroom faucet is a relatively simple task that can be completed in a few minutes. However, it is important to follow the steps carefully to avoid damaging the faucet or your sink. Here is a step-by-step guide on how to take off a Grohe bathroom faucet:

Step 1: Gather Your Tools

You will need the following tools to remove a Grohe bathroom faucet:

Adjustable wrench
Phillips screwdriver
Flathead screwdriver
Bucket

Step 2: Turn Off the Water Supply

Before you start working on the faucet, you need to turn off the water supply. This will prevent water from leaking out of the faucet while you are working on it.

To turn off the water supply, locate the shut-off valves under the sink. Turn the valves clockwise to close them.

Step 3: Disconnect the Water Lines

Once the water supply is turned off, you need to disconnect the water lines from the faucet.

Use the adjustable wrench to loosen the nuts that connect the water lines to the faucet. Be careful not to overtighten the nuts, as this could damage the water lines.

Step 4: Remove the Faucet Handle

The next step is to remove the faucet handle.

Use the Phillips screwdriver to remove the screws that hold the handle in place.

Step 5: Remove the Faucet Cartridge

Once the faucet handle is removed, you can remove the faucet cartridge.

Use the flathead screwdriver to pry off the cap that covers the cartridge. Once the cap is removed, you will see a nut that holds the cartridge in place. Use the adjustable wrench to loosen the nut and remove the cartridge.

Step 6: Remove the Faucet Body

The final step is to remove the faucet body.

Use the adjustable wrench to loosen the nuts that hold the faucet body in place. Once the nuts are loosened, you can pull the faucet body straight up to remove it.

Step 7: Reinstall the New Faucet

Once you have removed the old faucet, you can install the new faucet.

To install the new faucet, follow the steps in reverse order. First, insert the faucet body into the hole in the sink. Then, tighten the nuts that hold the faucet body in place.

Next, insert the faucet cartridge into the faucet body. Tighten the nut that holds the cartridge in place.

Finally, reattach the faucet handle. Tighten the screws that hold the handle in place.

Step 8: Turn On the Water Supply

Once the new faucet is installed, you can turn on the water supply.

To turn on the water supply, locate the shut-off valves under the sink. Turn the valves counterclockwise to open them.

Check for leaks around the faucet. If you see any leaks, tighten the nuts or screws that hold the faucet in place.
