Rated 4 out of 5 by from Great Faucet Overall, it’s a pretty good product. I’ve used them before, right now I’m having a problem I thought was with the aerator, but it seems to be coming through the thread. I put new washers on it. It still does it today. I just bought a new aerator and it’s doing the same thing so I think it’s the faucet part itself the threading.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Very stylish The faucet is a great price for the quality you get. It is stylish and looks great in my kitchen. Very easy to install. It's a little smaller than my previous faucet which was the Windemere. I like Delta products because whenever I have had a problem customer service was always helpful and they stand behind their warranty.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great product I just love it. The water flows softly, I can now wash big pots and pans with room to spare.

Rated 2 out of 5 by from Looks good, handles feel like quality The hand held hose sprayer is weak. It’s a fan like spray and my older Delta was much better. It had a direct powerful spray. I found out after my purchase that I could have gotten delta free replacement washers and things replaced via you guarantee I am still thinking of replacing this new faucet & hand sprayer ..it’s frustrating by comparison! Yet, I have got to figure out how to determine the sprayer function direct vs fan spray before I blow more cash. 🫩😤🤷🏻‍♂️

How can I get more water flow from the faucet?

Asked by: guteman7
Hello guteman7, Thank you for your question about the Delta Faucet model 21988LF Foundations® Two Handle Kitchen Faucet With Spray In Chrome. I apologize for any difficulty finding this information. I know that can be frustrating. We are happy to help! This faucet is designed to have a maximum flow rate of 1.8 GPM @ 60 PSI. Reduced flow is often caused by debris caught in the aerator or faucet. To flush the faucet: 1) Remove the aerator and black sealing gasket above it 2) Turn faucet handle(s) to full-on hot and cold mixed position(s) and flush lines for two minutes before turning off the water with handle(s). 3) Replace the aerator If the issue is not resolved: 4) Turn off the water supply to both hot and cold. 5) Remove all internal components. 6) Turn water supplies back on and let run for 30-60 seconds. (For kitchen and lavatory faucets turn a bucket or similar large container upside down over the faucet to deflect the water into the sink.) 7) Turn water supplies off again. 8) Reassemble the faucet. 9) Turn water supplies back on. Please reach out at customerservice@deltafaucet.com or 1-800-345-DELTA if you have any questions or need additional assistance. Thank you for being a loyal Delta Faucet customer. Best regards, Bryan

I just installed the Delta model 21988lf however the faucet drips after shutting off the handles I wouldn't think with a brand new faucet that I would have to take it apart and check the cartridges is this a problem that happens often?

Asked by: Phil
Hi Valued Customer, Thank you for contacting Delta Faucet Company! We apologize for the issues you are experiencing and we are happy to help! It is normal for residual water to drip out of the faucet after it has been shut off. If it still drips after about 15 minutes, there may be an issue with the seats and springs in the valves. As this is not normal for a new faucet, it may need to be flushed. We appreciate your inquiry. Please reach out directly if you have further questions!

How do I connect the sprayer to the faucet?

Asked by: bonnie
Hello Bonnie, Thank you for contacting us. I am sorry this information is not readily available and I would be happy to help you. In order to install the sprayer to the faucet, grab the sprayer hose, make sure clips are lined up, then push it onto the pipe coming down from the faucet. Once its connected you will hear a small snap, then I recommend pulling down slightly to make sure you have made a good connection. Please contact us back if you have any questions or need further assistance.  Best Regards,  Nicole
