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 5 out of 5 by from Great faucet. Great faucet. Can’t go wrong with Delta.
Date published: 2026-08-03
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Nice faucet and very well made. It takes a bit of training to not reach for the lever to turn on faucet, instead of touching the faucet, but I am getting there.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Delta Leland Pull-Down Kitchen Faucet Purchased and paid to install in July 2025. Leaks from handle so they sent me a new cartridge but I need to pay some one to install. Crazy to believe a relatively expensive faucet would last less than 1 year.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Love everything but the touchless feature! My husband and his both love the faucet but the touchless on/off faucet is too sensitive and we are going to disable it.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Faucet dead when batteries die Could not believe my faucet would not work when batteries died!! I have wanted a touch to activate faucet for so long (I hate trying to turn on the faucet when I have raw meat on my hands). I was so excited after installing this, which, by the way, was pretty easy. Then to have it not work after only 2 months because the batteries died!! During my husband's birthday party! I was scrambling g to find more AA's wherever I could find them, and after only a month I cannot use my sink AGAIN. I am going to try the C batteries and fingers crossed it will last more than 2 months. I will repost if it does work, Delta needs to make this known

Whenever the faucet is turned off &ldquo;by touch&rdquo; or &quot;handle&quot; in the HOT water position only, you can hear a squeak. It doesn&rsquo;t squeak when turned on, or while the water is running, just for a split second when turned off. Model 9178T-SP-DST, purchased 7-1-21

Kitchen faucet 9178T-DST purchased Jan 2020 has stopped retracting fully into tube. Head of wand and inside of tube have rust accumulation. Wand retainer appears damaged - does not fit snugly into tube. How do I fix this and is it covered under warranty?

Asked by: Byron

My faucet is working fine, but just noticed that it blinks red on and off each time I turn it on or turn it off. Is that an indication that I need new batteries? I&rsquo;ve had it for not quite a year. Thank you!

I want to convert Leland Model # 9178T-SP-DST to electric. I find that I am changing the batteries about every 3-4 months. I can't get to the floor to do this. I also find it very difficult to put the batteries in the holder.

Asked by: vlharr

The Leland&reg; Pull-Down Kitchen Faucet with Touch2O&reg; and ShieldSpray&reg; Technologies Model#: 9178T-SP-DST can use the A/C Power Supply Model#: EP102157. You will still need to keep the battery box connected with working batteries. Parts can be purchased online or locally.

Our 9178T-AR-DST Delta faucet turns on by itself. We tried changing the batteries and it continues to turn on when nobody is around it.

Asked by: Lori
Hello Lori, Thank you for your question. We are happy to help! A Delta Faucet with Touch2O turning on without being touched would be an issue of electrically isolating the faucet. We recommend placing the battery box on the floor, away from any walls. Keep the wires away from any other wires and away from metal as much as possible. Check that the faucet mounting shank is not touching the edge of the sink. Try moving the clip down the mounting shank and pointing it away from the sink. Please reach out directly if you have any questions or need additional assistance. Best regards, Bryan

A photo of the Leland faucet shows installed almost next to the backsplash but the specs show a minimum clearance of 2-1/2 inches. &nbsp;I need a faucet that can be installed with only 1-1/2 inch clearance. &nbsp;Is there any kitchen faucet that will meet my needs?

The water flow through my Leland touch faucet is becoming very slow. The water pressure to the spray head is very good when I remove the spray head. I cannot see any deposits in the head filters. Do I need a new head?

Asked by: Kevin
Hello Kevin, Thank you for contacting us! I apologize about the low flow you are experiencing but am happy to help you. The Delta 9678T-SP-DST has a flow rate of 1.8 GPM @ 60 PSI, If your not getting this flow rate then we would recommend soaking the wand in 50/50 white vinegar and water to break up the debris or build up.
