Delta Vero Faucet - A Must Buy!!
The Delta Vero faucet is stunning! We love the chrome and the sleek look. The handles are comfortable to gran onto. The pressure is fine. We were concerned about pressure since our old faucets were 20 yrs old but no problems.

Don't buy this faucet
Worst faucet we've ever owned. Bought a house with 5 yr old Vero faucets in two bathrooms. First, the water stream is very weak. Second, we had a leak coming out through the hot water handle. Shut water off, removed set screw, but was unable to remove the handle to get to the (probably) defective cartridge. I tried everything. Called Delta this morning and the Representative walked me through instructions on how to remove the handle, but I warned her the instructions did not seem accurate and could damage the faucet. Sure enough, the turning counterclockwise motion broke something inside the handle assembly and the handle still did not come off. VERY frustrating. Now I have to get a plumber involved to remove the entire faucet and buy another one. Delta was not helpful at all.

pretty but disappointed
Very attractive, but we had to return because the water flows out in 2 streams, 3 streams, even 4 streams and the handles were loose. We ordered a replacement and the handles are fine, but intermittently still having water flow coming out in multiple streams, Expected higher quality at this price point

Leaking handles after only 5 years in use.
I have 2 sinks in our bathroom with these faucets. They look great but started leaking after a few years of use. Started first with the hot water faucet in one sink, then the other sink and then all the handles! Drain plug no longer works either .Customer service is horrible. Want to send me part to replace that I will have to pay a plumber to do, when these faucets are $945 and should last over 20 years! Do not buy these products.

Too expensive. Design doesnt hold up well
Looks great new. Have never had a rectangle shaped faucet. This has not held up well. After 7 years of use the stream/flow is very small. All of the other delta faucets in my house are the traditional round and have had now issues. This is too expensive to not last.

Poor water straightener in faucet spout.

Q&A
What are the dimensions of Vero widespread faucet's square bases of the handles & spout? I want to ensure they will cover holes in my vanity top. Thx
Dear R.T.,
Thank you for your inquiry! The spout and handle bases of the Delta Vero Lavatory 3553LF faucet are 2" (51 mm).

how do you install the water straightener in the faucet? in the delta 3553lf
Hi, Stefano.
Thank you for your question. The stream straightener for the Delta 3553LF faucet simply pushes straight up into the mouth of the spout to install.

Even since install the hot and cold handles do not lie completely straight when in the off position. How do you adjust it?
Thank you for your question, embiidphila! The placement of the handles will rely on the valve orientation. If the base of the handle is not appropriately placed then the lever will also stop short of center. Please refer to diagram A and B in section 1 of the maintenance and installation manual for instructions. For further assistance, please contact our customer service team directly at 1-800-345-3358 Monday-Friday: 8a.m.-8p.m. EST and Saturday: 9a.m.-6p.m. EST or via email at customerservice@deltafaucet.com.

How can I adjust the handles so they stop when turning them
When I add the bonnet under the handle the handles do not catch on the stops so the handle goes all the way around. Is there a way to adjust the valve up or should I not use the plastic bonnet on top of the valve cover?
Hi Dmoench,
Thank you for your question. Please refer to diagram B in section 1 of the instructions. Please make sure that the top glide ring (5) is installed with the flat side face up. Please also be sure to press the handle (6) down until it is flush with the handle base (7).
Please also make sure that the top retainer (8) is threaded all the way down onto the valve. You may need to loosen the mounting nut to thread the retainer.

How do you remove the filter from the spigot. We have a new construction and when we turned the faucet on for the first time it was blocked with debris. No tool was provided to remove it.
Hi Everett,
Thank you for your question. Based on the "Maintenance" section of the below Maintenance/Installation document link, page 4. It states that you can pull out the stream straightener out of the end of the spout, with a long nose plier. This tool would not come in the box with the faucet.

Distance from spout to deck
The spec sheet on the 3553LF shows a distance of 2 5/8" from end of spout to counter/deck. Is that correct? Screen shot attached.
Dear JM,
Thank you for your inquiry! Yes, the 2 5/8" is the correct distance from the end of the spout to the counter-top/sink, for the Delta Vero Lavatory 3553LF faucet.

In 2012, was the GPM 1.2 which they are currently 1.5 this year?
The water flow is very restricted. I see the product has a 1.5 GPM. In 2012 was the GPM 1.2?
Dear Dee,
Thank you for your question. The Delta Vero Lavatory 3553LF faucet had a flow rate of 1.5 gpm at 60 PSI in 2012. To comply with all states current plumbing codes and restrictions the flow rate of this Vero faucet converted to 1.2 gpm at 60PSI, starting July 1, 2016.

Can I use this on my tub?
Hi Jays, Thank you for your question!
The 3553LF-CZ lavatory faucet only releases 1.2gpm ( gallons per minute) which would not be enough water to fill a tub in good timing.

I have a 3553LF faucet that is leaking. Can I replace the cartridge with RP25513 from my local store, or do I need to special order the RP24096?
Hello,
Thank you for your question!
These two stem units are interchangeable. The RP24096 will allow the handle to turn a full 180 degrees while the RP25513 (which uses the RP24097 quarter turn stop) only allows the handle to turn 90 degrees to be in the full on position.
Please reach out with further questions!

Hi, Foxden!
Thank you for your question, and I am sorry to hear that you are experiencing an issue with your Delta faucet. The hole size for each hole should be 1 5/16"~1 1/2" (33~38 mm). Here is a link to the technical specifications for this unit:

Does the stream straightener increase, decrease or not effect the water flow? We are trying to increase ours. Thanks.
Hi, Whitten5!
Thank you for your question. The Delta 3553LF faucet aerator does not increase or decrease the water flow. The aerator aerates the water to flow in a smooth ribbon.

Delta lavatory faucet model number 3553LF-SS, will this faucet work for 3 cm granite
If not can it be retro fitted for 3cm use.
I purchased this product not realizing the specs stated it was ok for up to 29mm (just under 3cm for standard granite thickness). The faucet was installed in a granite vanity and after getting the handles pushed down all the way, it is working fine. I am not sure why Delta states it won't work.

Can I hook up an aerator for this?
I own two of these faucets - we like them but since they don't have aerators water splashes all over the bathroom countertop. Is there an aerator I can buy for these or anything else I can do to stop the splashing form happening?
Hi frandrupl, We are sorry that you are experiencing a problem with your faucet. Unfortunately the design of the spout on the model 3553LF does not allow for an aerator or aerated stream. Lowering the water flow is the only way to reduce the splashing.
Thanks,

Thank you for your inquiry, Phil W! We recommend a minimum of 2 1/2" (64mm) to the back splash, for the installation of the Delta Olmsted Lavatory 3553LF faucet. Cleaning the faucet may be difficult, if the faucet is installed at a lesser distance to the back splash.

During installation I noticed that the copper supply running into the faucet spigot itself is entirely loose and spins freely. I initially though perhaps this was intentional, but I thought I should check to see if it needs repair.
