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® ShieldSpray® Technology cleans with laser-like precision while containing mess and splatter. A concentrated jet powers away stubborn messes while an innovative shield of water contains splatter and clears off the mess, so you can spend less time soaking, scrubbing and shirt swapping. 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.

Rated 2 out of 5 by from Works, but I have total buyers remorse After moving into a home, it was decided that we would replace the kitchen faucet. Thinking it would be a good idea to have something you could touch to turn on and off. After having some power outages this past winter, we found out that the solenoid doesn't work unless there is power in the faucet, so I had to find batteries to put into the battery holder to get the faucet to work. There is also a timer that shuts the faucet off after some time. Which is incredibly frustrating if you are filling a big pot with water, or washing a lot of dishes. I really wish we had purchased this model with out the touch feature, as its more frustrating than having to move the handle to turn the water on and off. If there was a way to eliminate the timer, I might be more happy, and if there was a way to put this into a "manual" mode, I would be even happier with power failures.

Rated 2 out of 5 by from Delta 9178T Malfunction Have had this product for about 2 years.. Seems as if it has a mind of it's own sometime off and on without our touching it. However the big problem is that now it won't come on. Have replaced the batteries with no success. When its turned on, for a while it would just have a small stream about the size of a match stick then suddenly come on full. Now it won't come on at all. Checked batteries again with not success.

Rated 2 out of 5 by from faucet water pressure is very low on this faucet and I really wanted to like the touch to turn off and on, but if you just barely touch it anywhere it turns off or on. It also has an auto shut off that I don't like. I guess the faucet works the way that it is supposed to and I should have done better research before buying it.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Working great except for the light I just installed this Touch 2.0 Leland faucet and have no major issues so far. I installed this by myself and the install was very simple and straight-forward. It took me about an hour to remove the old faucet and install the new one. My only issue and the reason for the three stars is the temperature indicator led is barely visible. When standing at the sink, it does not even appear to be working. When bending down to be at eye level, the light does work but is very faint. As it is, the light is useless as an indicator because it can not be seen unless the kitchen is dark. I really don't intend to be washing dishes in the dark. Hopefully this minor issue can be resolved.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Defective Product Bought this faucet during a kitchen remodel. Within 6 months the handle started leaking when left in the "open" position. I called Delta and they sent a replacement cartridge to fix the leak. I spent money to have my plumber install the new piece. Almost immediately the handle began to leak again. I would come into the kitchen in the morning and my entire island would be covered in water and spilling onto the floor. Stopped using the touch feature and just closed the handle like a normal faucet to prevent leaking and it is now leaking with the handle closed too. Also, the magnet component that retracts the head of the faucet back into the arm has completely rusted out and disintegrated after a year of use. Delta is now sending me more parts (in lieu of a replacement faucet) and refuses to acknowledge that I received a poor product.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Love/hate relationship with faucet First the bad - buyers need to be aware of an problem with the cartridge for this model. Purchased this last spring, but because of COVID, did not have it installed until last October. A few months ago, it started dripping. Also, since the faucet was installed, the water pressure has gone from ok to worse, with it taking 20 minutes to fill up my medium-sized kitchen sink. After looking online, I see that there is a known issue with the cartridge for this model and people are having to replace it several times. The water pressure was lower in the faucet as soon as it was installed. We tried cleaning the little tiny circular filter in the faucet head with no luck, and so with everything going on, we just lived with it. But when the flow became a big issue (couldn't rinse out debris in the sink, garbage disposal wasn't getting clean), we had a plumber come over thinking it was an issue with the new lines that were put in before the faucet was installed. Nope. Plumber tells us the cartridge is bad and needs to be replaced after only 9 months of using it. So, we'll have to buy another cartridge and have the plumber come back out, replace it, and then pay his bill $$$. Now the good. What do I love about the faucet? Everything else. I have rheumatoid arthritis and several other health issues, and having a faucet that turns on with a touch is so wonderful. It's also a huge bonus when your hands are filthy and you can use your wrist to turn the water on. Combined with our automatic soap dispenser, it's effortless to clean our hands. I find myself wishing all of our faucets would turn on with just a touch! And the three spray modes are great, especially the one that comes out as a very focused stream which removes bits of gunk stuck to plates, etc. Some people don't care for a feature which turns the faucet off after 4 minutes. I actually enjoy that as I can leave the faucet on to fill the sink or a pot and know it will turn itself off. More than once I've turned the faucet on and forgotten about it, and now I don't have to worry. It also looks great on our counter, which was a minor factor when purchasing this. Would I purchase this again? Probably. We looked around for over a month trying to find a faucet that fit our needs and specifications and found one that crossed everything off. But the cartridge needing to be replaced is frustrating and costly.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Not the Quality That I Expected From Delta Purchased in April and installed by plumber in late May. Needed two parts right away out of the box as unit leaked from spray nozzle and spray pattern was not correct. Delta tech support person Carmen was helpful and parts arrived as scheduled. Still waiting for plumber to complete install as happens when things don't go well the first time.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Looks Good I bought this along with the adapter, which was a waste of money. You cannot plug this into the same outlet that your garbage disposal is plugged into.

Rated 2 out of 5 by from Disapponted I had a Leland kitchen faucet in prior house and really liked it. So got that faucet again for new house. The sprayer is different and I hate it. There are 3 modes of spray instead of two. The water stream is very puny, I don’t know what this “bubble” spray is for. It does nothing for me. I would like to have spray head like before that just had regular stream or spray,

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Ouch! Did Not Work We just built a new house and thought we would try a "touch" kitchen facet. After a few days, there must have been sand/dirt in the lines that caused the volume to be reduced. I contacted the builder and did nothing. Since then, the volume of water has slowed to a trickle which makes washing dishes miserable. I contacted the supply house who contacted Delta and there are no parts available and have been back ordered for months. Got fed up with this facet and will replace with a normal 0n/Off using a handle. By the way, we have to other sinks in the kitchen area that does not have touch and they work just fine. This facet has been a headache since day 1 and I would not recommend to buy one.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Touch feature became posessed and now faucet leaks I've had this faucet for over 5 years. The touch feature became possessed and would just turn on all by itself when no one was even close to it. I did all the trouble-shooting that the Delta website recommended (clearly lots of people have had similar issues). Eventually I gave up and disconnected the touch feature. But now the faucet is almost impossible to turn off. If you don't slam the handle just right it drips. So basically, every time I go to turn if off it takes three or four tries. Additionally, it is extremely difficult to find the exact right balance of hot and cold. Once you fight the sweet spot you don't want to turn the water off for fear you'll never find it again. So you end up wasting a ton of water. It was great when it worked but too much money to just have to replace it after five or six years. I'm not even going to bother with the warranty to get the leak fixed because I have so much trouble with the temperature balance.

Q&A

third question is related to LED light. It has never changed temps. It is always red?? Thanks for your help

Asked by: Joe P
Hi, Joe P! Thank you for your question, and I am sorry to hear that you are experiencing an issue with your Delta faucet. We recommend to reset the LED light wire and battery pack. To do this, disconnect the LED light wire from the solenoid. Disconnect the battery pack. Wait a full minute. While you are waiting a full minute, you can check batteries and see if they are in good condition, even try new batteries. Make sure they're all in the correct direction and tightly secured in the battery pack. After a full minute, reconnect the LED light wire into the solenoid and then reconnect the battery pack. Wait another full minute. After the full minute, you can then check your faucet and see if the blue light works better. If this does not, 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

Model 9178T-DST. I do not get enough water pressure on my kitchen faucet as it was before. Is any part that I should change or has to be clean inside some where taking it apart? Hope that someone can help me with this issue.

Asked by: Rick
Hello Rick, Thank you for your question. We would recommend flushing the supply lines of your faucet. To flush out the valve body, so that these parts do last as long as possible, please first turn off the water supply to the faucet. Gather an adjustable wrench, some towels and a bucket. Disconnect the hot side Innoflex line. Move the handle to the full on position, middle temp. Point the hot side Innoflex line into a bucket. Turn on the cold supply valve full. Let a gallon or two flow into the bucket. Shut off cold supply. Check bucket for debris. If no debris, empty bucket and run one more time. Move handle to off position. Reattach hot side line. Turn on both water supply valves. Please feel free to call, email, or message us on social if there is anything else you need. Best regards, Tanya Phone: 1-800-345-3358 | Email: customerservice@deltafaucet.com | Facebook/Twitter: @deltafaucet
