Price Pfister Marielle Kitchen Faucet with Matching Spray and Soap ... Questions & Answers
Handle on faucet shuts off on its own
I had the same problem. The Price Pfister web site recommends removing the handle (unscrew the dome cap, then remove the phillips screw to get the handle off) then tightening the retaining ring (I used channel lock pliers on largest setting. It worked. However the retaining ring is plastic on some models, and they recommend replacing it with a brass one. I haven't taken that step yet, we'll see how it goes (mine is plastic).
Faucet will not swivel
if your faucet is new....the spout was put together wrong and it needs to be removed and re-attached correctly...(friction washer/ring in wrong position).....if not new....spray some penetrating oil on the connection that is supposed to swivel....make sure the surface is dry and try to avoid overspray. let it sit for 15 min...then spray it again...and again let it sit ....after sitting for a few minutes.....gently try to move the spout side to side...if no change...repeat the first processs...and continue to repeat until it becomes moveable....once moveable....detach the spout.....dry out and remove any foreign matter from the connection side on the faucet...then apply a small amount of faucet grease to the connection threads and the inside barrel....a thin even coat ...excess grease will clog your aerator...don't use too much....now repeat the cleaning and lubricating process on the removed spout connector....reassemble.....remove aerator....turn on the water and flush....replace the aerator....turn water on full blast....check for leaks and for swing...it should swivel now ....if not...loosen the connection nut a tad and try again....if still no swing....you are missing a friction ring somewhere in the connection and it needs to be replaced before you will be able to swing the spout.....good luck...
Water shoots out of my faucet, now can I plug it?
water is supposed to come out of your faucet...in a controlled fashion....if its at the handle....remove the handle and locate the source....tighten the packing gland or replace a seal. if it sprays all crazy at the spout...try unscrewing the little piece on the tip of the spout (aerator)....flush your faucet by running the water with it off...then flush out the screen on the aerator and re-attach it...hope I was some help....good luck and always know where and how to turn your house water supply off before working on any pressure points on your water supply system.
Loss of pressure in kitchen faucet - Price Pfister
Your problem is a simple one.
- Turn off water to faucet.
- Place a towel(s) in the base of the sink(s) to prevent any parts from going down drain.
- Remove the handle to the faucet. (single handle only)
- If not a single handle then remove spout from faucet.
- If a single handle remove cap carefully and any loose parts.
- Gently turn spout side to side while lifting to remove.
- You will see a hole with a very small valve where the water comes out to the spout on the base of the faucet.
- Remove this valve (which is a backflow preventer) and replace.
- Reassemble and test.
Problem solved.
The soap dispenser on my price pfister kitchen
Two things spell trouble for these poorly engineered units:water and thick soap...
Inside these pumps is a metal ball for
the check valve. any water in your soap
will corrode this ball, causing the pump
to lose it's prime...
Using soap thats too thick (like Dawn)
will cause the soap to harden around the moving parts and impede the pumping
action. Try a thinner soap, such as inexpensive pink hand soap.DO NOT
ADD WATER! (See above)
Hope this helps.
I have a Price Pfister 34 series kitchen faucet
How did you resolve the problem of removing the spout assembly? We also have a Price Pfister 34 series kitchen faucet and are trying to replace the diverter. Like you, we have removed everything down to the spout assembly, which will not simply lift off. We have tried letting it sit overnight with WD40, thinking it would loosen it up. No such luck. Then tried using white vinegar, thinking maybe there were calcium deposits holding it on. No luck. Please tell us that you were successful and how you got the victory over this stubborn thing!
I have a Price Pfister
You need an aerator wrench, Pfister part number 941-031. Several vendors on the web carry this part.
New faucet, sprayer hooked up right, no water going into hose?
check the sprayer handle by disconnecting and blowing into it and pressing sprayer handle and/or for possible kink at main body or hose by disconnected sprayer point hose into sink and turn on water. If no water the the diverter in main body is not working properly and needs to be reassembled or replaced
Replaing sprayer
The Price Pfister web site has a video showing you how to disconnect the hose. Basically, you have to push the hose end into the junction block and then grasp the gray plastic fitting, pull the fitting, NOT the hose, away from the junction block. This sounds good in theory, but when upside down with your hands stuck in a small crevase under the sink, it can be a real challenge. Go to the Price Phister web site and watch the video. Good luck.

The black plate surrounding spray controls fell off,now what?
Is the plate damaged? If so you should be able to get another at the hardware store. Will it slip over the sprayer? If not you will need to turn the water off at the cut off and unscrew the sprayer hose the pull hose through the sink hole and put the plate over the hole then the hose goes back through the hole and screw it back on under sink. It should be good to go.
