PRODUCT FEATURES
Touch it on. Touch it off. Whether you have two full hands or 10 messy fingers, Delta® Touch2O® Technology helps keep your faucet clean, even when your hands aren’t. A simple touch anywhere on the spout or handle with your wrist or forearm activates the flow of water at the temperature where your handle is set. The Delta TempSense™ LED light changes color to alert you to the water’s temperature and eliminate any possible surprises or discomfort. Delta® MagnaTite® Docking uses a powerful integrated magnet to pull your faucet spray wand precisely into place and hold it there so it stays docked when not in use. Delta® faucets with DIAMOND™ Seal Technology perform like new for life with a patented design which reduces leak points, is less hassle to install and lasts twice as long as the industry standard*. Kitchen faucets with Touch-Clean® Spray Holes allow you to easily wipe away calcium and lime build-up with the touch of a finger. You can install with confidence, knowing that Delta faucets are backed by our Lifetime Limited Warranty. Electronic parts are backed by our 5-year electronic parts warranty. *Industry standard is based on ASME A112.18.1 of 500,000 cycles.

Flawed finish.
The finish on the faucet is not perfect (and it should be for that price). There are two flaw markings.

Would buy again!
This faucet is high quality. The color is gorgeous, looks very glamorous. Not fake like some golds can look.
The only thing that takes getting used to is how to operate the touch feature. It
Can be a little finicky at times. Overall we are very happy

Great Revision To Their Touch Kitchen Faucet Design
This faucet is a slightly darker Nickel finish with a bit of a gloss to it. Think a combination of gun metal. it does not match the Houzer soap dispenser I also installed beside it in the existing granite (though I'm find with it as the handle designs are identical between the two.
Installation will take some time, if you've got experience with faucet installs, it won't present in any problems. Proper operation is dependent on install quality. I bough the RP64070 plate and AC adapter EP73954 and both installed without issue. The solenoid that switches water on and off is not a soft-valve-close design, so that it doesn't shake lines like the previous design. Also, the human touch detection is flawless as I've had no false triggers and it consistently discerns between my fingers turning it on and my fingers adjusting the neck's aim. The light that changes color from hot to cold is a nice touch that others have appreciated (if you have long lines and you're waiting for the water to reach temp you can just glance over and check).
Good purchase overall.

Touch control is great; service is excellent.
We love the touch control, which keeps the manual control from getting gummed up during food preparation and pan washing. Service and support from Delta has been outstanding when we've needed to replace a part.

Very functional
This model Looks great but the touch system is the best part. I’ve had this faucet for a few years now and when I go to someone else house and use theirs it feels so outdated.

Q&A
What is the height of the handle from the countertop?
We have a breakfast bar behind our sink. The clearance to the backsplash at the countertop is 2.5 inches, which is sufficient for the Trinsic faucet. However, there is a half inch overhang from the breakfast bar. This overhang begins at 5 inches above the countertop. Consequently, the clearance is only 2 inches at that overhang. Will this interfere with the operation of the handle?
No this should not interfere with your clearance as I had 2" for my facucet to the back splash

Can the on/off handle be reversed to the left side during installation
Kevin,
Thank you for your question. We recommend installing the faucet with the handle on the right. The handle operates by tilting away from the faucet to turn on. The vertical (back) position gives cold water and rotating the handle forward provides hot. Unfortunately, there is no way to reverse the movement, so if the handle is installed on the left, it will rotate backwards. Also, reversing the installation would move the LED light to the back of the faucet.
Best regards, Jon

Can we install this trinsic single in Europe?
Hi Anna,
Thank you for your question! The faucet can be installed in other countries, however it may require supply adapters. It is designed to connect to 3/8" compression fittings. Please also note that the warranty will not apply to faucets installed in Europe.
Best regards,
Jon

Can you toggle between stream and spray? Or do you have to turn off the faucet to turn off spray mode?
Thank you for your question PS.
You can toggle between stream and spray without having to turn the faucet off. Touch2O® Technology is a sophisticated technology and understands the difference between a touch (1/3 of a second) or a grab (more then 300 milliseconds) and will not turn off when toggling through stream and spray.
Best regards, Edward

How does faucet toggle between aerator and spray?
Hi Tom, Thank you for your question. The model 9159T-DST has a toggle switch on the backside of the pull out wand that allows you to switch between stream and spray.
Thanks,
Dave

Install with lever handle in the front
Can I install the faucet with the level handle in the front instead of to the right? If yes, would it change the location of the blue light for the touch2o motion?
Thank you for your question. Delta Faucet model # 9159T-DST can be turned so the handle is in the front. However, the blue light will also move. Also, the hot and cold will be side to side to operate.

Every once in a while the water just turns on. Sometimes in the middle of the night. I worry that we might not be home and it would flood. I do change the batteries.

Our Touch2O® Technology incorporates an automatic water flow shut-off after four minutes if the water is left running with no activity.

I am having an issue I’d like some help with please. Sometimes when I touch the faucet to stop the flow of water we get a steady drip (sometimes heavier than others). When we use the handle to stop the water, no drip. What mechanism needs attention?
Hi, Vanne!
Thank you for your question, and I am sorry to hear that you are experiencing a leak from your Delta faucet. Leaking from the faucet in the touch off mode usually comes from debris inside the solenoid. You may flush the solenoid by following these next steps.
1. Turn the water supply by putting your handle in the manual off position.
2. Disconnect the sprayer hose by removing the blue retaining clip.
3. Place a bucket under the male adapter coming out from the solenoid.
4. Run water into the bucket for 2-3 minutes. Debris located inside the solenoid should be flushed out after completing these steps.
If this does not correct the leak, please contact our Delta Customer Service line at (800)345-3358. We are available Monday-Friday, 7am-7pm, CST and Saturday, 8am-5pm, CST. You may also email at customerservice@deltafaucet.com.
Best Regards,
Rosanna
