Rated 4 out of 5 by from Delta kitchen faucets. Great product. I love the Delta line. I’ve on had trouble with the finish. It keeps getting pits on it. The seats and springs also give way quickly, but Delta is great on sending replacements parts.

I bought a Pur water filter for this faucet but none of the adapters that came with it fit on the faucet. What size do I need to fit on this faucet?

Thank you for your question, Derek71! The Delta Windemere Kitchen 21996LF-SS faucet has an aerator with a thread size of 3/4-27, we do not manufacture any adapters to fit dishwashers or filters. You may want to check with a local plumbing store or the makers of the PUR filter for any other adapters. Best regards, Tanya

Water Restrictor/Saver feature in the cartridge

I have two questions: Is there a 2.2 aerator available for this faucet? Can you tell me why there is a water restrictor or water saver in the CARTRIDGE when the aerator has a water restrictor/saver already? I was told by someone that the cartridge has another restrictor feature. Thank you.

Asked by: John
Hi, John! Thank you for your question. You can cap off the valve end so that you don't have to use the sprayer for this faucet. To know what cap to use for your faucet, you will want to look at the back of the faucet for the supplier code. If your supplier code says 413763-A and has a square end, you will need cap part number RP60295. If your supplier code says 413763 (without an 'A'), you will need cap part number RP40301.

Can this faucet work without the sprayer connected?

Asked by: Raymond
Thank you for your question, Raymond! The sprayer port can be capped. Please refer to the parts diagram below and check to see which code your faucet has on the back of the base. It will be either 413763 or 413763-A. Models with the :-A" can use part number RP60295 to cap off the sprayer outlet. If your faucet has the 413763 code, you can use a threaded cap that works with 1/4"-18 NPSM. Such a cap can be purchased locally at a plumbing or hardware store, or online. Best regards, Jon
