Kohler Bathroom Faucet Leaking From Spout

Kohler bathroom faucets are known for their quality and durability. However, even the best faucets can develop leaks over time. A leaking faucet can be a major annoyance, and it can also waste water and energy. If you have a Kohler bathroom faucet that is leaking from the spout, there are a few things you can do to fix the problem.

The most common causes of a leaking Kohler bathroom faucet spout include:

Worn-out O-rings

Damaged valve seats

Loose or cracked spout

Debris or mineral buildup

To fix a leaking Kohler bathroom faucet spout, you will need the following tools:

Adjustable wrench

Philips screwdriver

Flathead screwdriver

Replacement O-rings or valve seats (if necessary)

The steps involved in repairing a leaking Kohler bathroom faucet spout vary depending on the cause of the leak. However, the general steps are as follows:

Turn off the water supply to the faucet.

There will be two water shut-off valves under your sink. Turn both valves all the way clockwise to shut off the water supply. 2.

Remove the aerator.

The aerator is located at the tip of the faucet spout. It can be unscrewed by hand or with an adjustable wrench. 3.

Check the O-rings.

The O-rings are located inside the aerator. Inspect the O-rings for any signs of wear or damage. If the O-rings are worn or damaged, they will need to be replaced. 4.

Check the valve seats.

The valve seats are located inside the faucet body. Inspect the valve seats for any signs of damage. If the valve seats are damaged, they will need to be replaced. 5.

Reassemble the faucet.

Once you have replaced the O-rings and/or valve seats, reassemble the faucet. Start by screwing the aerator back onto the faucet spout. Then, tighten the packing nut with an adjustable wrench. Finally, turn on the water supply and check for leaks.

If you have followed the steps above but the faucet is still leaking, you may need to call a plumber for assistance.
