I have had an under-counter installation for over a year. I just replaced the filter and now my faucet does stop as quickly as it used to. What's up?

I had this problem from day one and found that a smooth slow shut off will eliminate the drip in the directions it mentions a water pressure regulator I believe that would probably end the problem.....Just a guess

Not sure because I did not have this problem with mine. However, you may take off the filter part at the faucet head to see if there is debris blocking the running of the water and making the whirring sound. Usually new faucet needs to be cleaned to get rid of those debris before installation. Good lick!

Sorry! Can't help with your problem. Out faucet was installed by a plumber and we have not had any problems whatsoever.

We had our plumber install, as my husband is better with computers! Reading in the reviews about the problems and fix arounds others had to do lead to our decision plus we had other plumbing problems he was coming out for. It does take up about 1/4 of the space under the sink except for short stuff. Filter change: All you do is unscrew the white filter holder, replace filter and screw it back into place.

I just see it blinking at the month when I install it, You need to replace the filters when the water is slow, I need to replace it about two month, but some one told, it is 4-6 month and some is 6-8 month.

It is hard to say. The old filters used to have an indicator which was a no-brainer. I usually change mine every few (3) months or so (when I remember). If you notice the water filters more slowly, I would suggest to change it.

Once I removed the spongy water filter from inside the fixture mine has been fine. If you did not remove that filter I would start there. Maybe you are getting build up caught in it. Mine has been working great with no drop in pressure.

I just put a piece of blue tape with the install date on the filter and replace in a year or if the flow slows appreciably (which in my usage/experience takes > 1 year). The filters have gotten more expensive - I used to get them for $70-80 so now I wait longer to replace :)

I don't know but I just replaced my filter when it started making noise because I could not get it to stop.

Sometimes you have to turn it just the right way or it doesn't "connect" to the faucet...I have mine for over a year and I really love it - it's a great product at a great price. Maybe the company can better answer this question.

I wish I had better news for you Raine. I had such a difficult time changing this last time, that I broke it and had to call a plumber. Even the plumber railed about the poor quality of this system. I am going to replace the whole system and get a different filtration system. Both times I've tried changing these filters I needed help and it kind of defeats the purpose if you aren't able to change the filter. I think that PUR has a model with an easier change filter. Good luck!

I wonder if you maybe have a lot of minerals in your water and if they're possibly collecting and interfering with water flow... Having a plumber check it out would probably cost nearly as much as a new one so I don't know if that would be an effective way to proceed or not. If it's something focused on the faucet, maybe you can replace just that piece instead of the entire heater unit. I would start as L. Willman suggested and contact Waste King to ask them for assistance.

I replaced the filter with no problem. When I did so there was an audible "click". The only suggestion I would make is check the filter to make sure it's the right one.

Is this the first time you've used the unit? If so, I wonder if you didn't install it correctly...? On the other hand, if you've been using the filter for some time, it probably needs to be cleaned. Remove the filter, let it dry, then scrub with sandpaper, rinse in plain water, then re-install. At least, that's what I do when the filter stops working. Eventually, I need to buy a new filter.

Not a problem with mine. It could be a clogged filter or to much pressure/flow from the supply. Replace the element and/or turn down the flow rate.

Hot side of cartridge has small piece of sediment blocking it. Try to blow out or change cartridge. Patrician faucet has lifetime warranty they'll send you new cartridge.
