Model 22 & V22
MODEL 22 HOT/COLD WALL FAUCET
TROUBLESHOOTING & MAINTENANCE
Valve seat rubber (30008) is worn or damaged and needs to be replaced or the seat rubber screw is loose. Follow instructions below on how to remove the operating rod. If this does not fix the leak, the faucet may have a damaged seat and the faucet will need to be replaced.
The packing nut will occasionally need to be tightened to stop a packing leak. Tighten the packing nut behind the handle until snug and the leak stops. Persistent leaks will require a new packing ring (30560).
To remove the operating rod from the faucet, shut off the water supply to the faucet and remove the handle and packing nut. Use the handle to turn the rod counterclockwise until the rod becomes disengaged from the valve seat. Use a small screwdriver to pry the packing loose. Pull the rod out of the faucet. The rod may have a check valve that will add resistance to removal, but a swift pull will disengage it.
