Model 9178DST

Does the screen come off so you can clean out the little flecks of rust?
Asked by: Kim
Hi Kim, Thank you for your question. The cache aerator on the wand of your model 9178-DST is removeable. The faucet shipped with a small blue t-shaped wrench that will help unscrew the aerator. If you do not have the wrench it can be orderd as RP50815. http://www.deltafaucet.com/repairparts/details/rp50815.html Thanks, Dave

When the spray mode is on, I understand from previous questions that it stays on until it is changed. Is this true if the faucet is turned off while in spray mode? Will the faucet remain in spray mode when the faucet is turned on again? 

Asked by: Delta fan
Hello Delta fan, Thank you for your question! I will be happy to assist. Correct, if you shut your faucet off in the spray mode, it should be the spray mode when you turn it on again. Please contact us back if you need further assistance. Best Regards, Kyra

bjgaudet  · 2 years ago   I have a Leland 9178-ar-dst faucet that when using the single stream is leaks around the edge and has leaked since just after it was installed  less than a year ago.

Asked by: Bill

We only have the 9178-SP-DST for a little over a month and the water pressure seems to have greatly decreased on all 3 positions. What is causing our problem?

Asked by: Mag309
Hello Mag309, Thank you for your question! We apologize for the low flow you are experiencing and I am happy to assist you! Debris is usually the main cause of low flow on a Delta faucet. We recommend flushing the supply lines and valve, as well as soaking the wand head in a 50/50 solution of white vinegar and water. Please contact us back with any further questions.

I have had thiendelta leland pull down kitchen faucet for about 3 months and am experiencing low water flow pressure and reduced stream. It was fine when first installed. Spray function works fine. How can I clean the head. We have well water.

Asked by: Bernice
Hi Bernice, Thank you for contacting Delta Faucet Company! Please accept our sincere apology for the inconvenience you are experiencing. Here is what we can do to resolve your issue for you. Low flow is caused by a blockage or debris, we would recommend flushing the Delta Faucet Leland® Single Handle Pull-Down Kitchen Faucet With Soap Dispenser In Chrome MODEL#: 978-SD-DST. Please shut water supplies off before starting this process, also grab a towel, and a bucket. To flush the unit, we recommend the following: Start with the easy stuff: Remove your aerator, wand or hose to check the flow through the unit without that part installed. If the flow is good, the piece you’ve removed is where the issue is. Soaking the part in a 50/50 mixture of white vinegar and water could help remove any particles or debris blocking the flow. If the water does not have a good flow, the problem could be in the faucet. Next, check the supply lines for debris: Turn the supply off to both the hot and cold-water lines. Once off, turn the handle on the faucet to the on position and leave it there to bleed the lines of any excess water. Next, disconnect the hot water supply line and place it inside a bucket. Once the line is securely positioned into the bucket, turn on the cold-water supply. Thank you for being a loyal Delta Faucet customer. We appreciate your business and look forward to continuing to serve you. Please contact us back with any further questions. Best Regards, Nicole
