have a pinnacle 36kpts and have a leak in the bathroom taps, were you turn the water on, single lever, how do I open it and fix it and what make is it, cant find any info

Most likely made by: Phoenix Faucets

If it is in warranty, give it to the dealer. If not, my experience is get one you like from Lowes or Home Depot and swap it out.

I could never get parts for them from the company. You could try to tighten it but I would not waste to much time on it.

Depends on where it is leaking. If it is leaking from under the base, you can try to tighten it from under sink. If that doesn't work, loosen it up completely and use plumbers putty instead of the rubber like seal.

If it is leaking from the handle, then the cartridge is probably bad. Take off the handle and remove the nuts and then remove the cartridge. Take the cartridge to your local Lowe's or Home depot, they should be able to match it for you.

Make sure to turn the water off before trying any repair.

The easiest, but most costly, would be to follow the previous posters advice and just get a new faucet to replace the leaking one.

Good advice from the previous poster but you will not find parts if it is a Phoenix. Try and find a number or symbol on the faucet.

As someone on here posted, Google is your friend.

how do you get the handle off, I see no way????

[norty1]

Should be a small allen set screw somewhere on it. or a removable cap on the top that exposes a phillips head screw.

My kitchen sink had a small press on cap in the back and a set screw underneath it. Good luck

post a picture and I think we can identify where to get the handle off.
