20 Most Recent Blanco Classic Single Handle Faucet with Pull-Out Spray .... Questions & Answers

Remove additional supply lines if used. Try and pull lines thru mounting hole one at a time.

it is more than likely that it is a ceramic insert and they do handle grit , dirt or anything else very well the fix here will be to remove that ceramic insert and clean out anything that is found a point of interest here is this one small section equals all the pipe is in the same condition you should consider replacing all of the gal pipe with either copper tubing or high pressure plastic pipe

The handle has build up in it but should come off eventually. Sounds like a dry o-ring seal. You can purchase a kit for your model without having to replace the whole unit.

Check youtube videos posted by Blanco on how to fix their faucets.

It should just unscrew. You might need some needle nose pliers as the aerator may be slightly recessed.

you can buy this wrench at a plumbing supply store

The first solution is of course correct. However I found it almost impossible to remove the spout assembly. It was very stiff and it was difficult to get any leverage to force it off without damaging the finish to the tap as a whole or damaging the sink.What I found was that if you poured boiling water over the tap/faucet it eased the stiffness and having done this several times - ie about 5 kettle loads of hot water, I managed to remove the spout. It helps if you reconnect the hose directly to the outlet under the sink (ie not via the faucet). THis allows you to run cold water through the tap whilst pourung boiling water over the outside of the tap. The cold water shrinks the copper/brass components whilst the hot water expands the spout assembly.Once off, it is possible to clean the inside of the assembly to remove corrosion or calcium deposits to say nothing of old "O" rings.I also used a kettle descaler between dousing with boiling water in the hope that some of it would seep down within the assembly.It took me three attempts to do this. I was almost going to spend UK pounds 430 or US dollars 670 and buy a new unit. So do not give up and I hope this helps.It swings backward and forward now perfectly.

Yes, it will be a small allen key that needs to be loosened before you can remove the handle.

Unscrew the part where the water comes out and remove the enterior parts paying close attention to how and the order in witch the come out so you can clean everything good and put it back together and pay close attention to the twist switch and how it operates.

Yes the leak is the washer. You can get a new washer at any hardware store. Just take the damaged washer with you and have someone at the store help you.

No you can not remove them, if you try to dill out the water saver you might do damage to the faucet.

Sorry next time you buy check the G P M flow rating.

Best of luck Rich

could be 3 things. 1. a piece of crud has gotten stuck in the valve somewhere (or even in the shutoff below). If you have older pipes or water that has bit of scale in it it could be that. These can be easy hard to remove. 2. mechanical failure in faucet, the lever moves but the valve inside is not moving or has come apart in some way 3. you might have floodsafe hoses going to the sink. these have a shut off to stop the flow if they break.
If no water at all is coming out of either hot or cold, then try removing one of the supply lines, shut both hot & cold off first and then disconnect one from the sink, see if water comes out when you turn on the shutoff it may be a floodsafe connector HERE is the webpage to show what they look like and how to reset them. if you do not and still no water comes out try working the shutoff a few times. be ready with a bucket and towels. if you have water to the faucet, then the problem is there. If you installed it yourself you can go back and begin to dismantle it. make sure the water is shut off. take the handle off and see if it is connected to the valve itself. if a part is not obviously broken you can disassemble it further, but I would really recommend taking it back and getting a replacement. you should be well within the warranty period. if there is a little bit of water coming out try unscrewing the aerator. the last thing the water goes through, it generally just unscrews with hand pressure. often this part gets gunked up. remember which part went where and which way it faced. hope this helps

Remove the faucet handle, the remove the faucet and lubricate the O' rings with a small amount of Vaseline.

You have a seal in spray head that's gone bad or has displaced itself,you can disassemble the spray head (note how you take apart so it is put back correctly or you will have a worse problem)check that all seal are complete and not torn or broken if they are you may have to get repair kit also use plumbers grease or vaseline to lube all seals when reinstalled.

If the screw is completely removed then your probably correct about the corrosion. Since you cannot readily access the corrosion to apply some 3 in 1 oil, you'll need to apply a bit of force to pull it up and off. A flat tip screwdriver wrapped in 1-2 turns in electrical tape (to prevent scratching the finish on the faucet) worked lightly into the gap between the faucet body and the handle may do just the trick. Once the screwdriver is in the gap, give is a little turn.

Hope this helps.

remove the aerator & clean start there ..

Cosmetic is iffy id think so, but manufacture may not ,, be persistent ..
