Q:I have this faucet in my bathroom - installed about 5 yrs. ago. I frequently get consistent in duration dripping after turning off. I have cleared the faucet screen. Throught the last year I have taken the handles off and some of the washers to make sure everthing is tight snd to nudge it here snd there and I can usually get it to stop. But there is no pattern ot logic to why it seems to stop or start up again or what my timkering does. Nothing seems loose. I most frequently try to adjust the hot lever. It doesn’t appear that any sealing rings are broken. I also just took the lever and some of the other washers/gears off tonight and realized I changed the direction that the lever turns on. Are the levers supposed to pull towars you or push away to turn on? Any ideas what might be causing the dripping?

                  A:  Hello, my name is Sarah with Kohler Customer Service. I am glad to answer your question. The faucet requires 1.25" from the center of the faucet hole to the back wall, however, allowing more room would be more aesthetically pleasing. Thank you for choosing The Bold Look of KOHLER.

                    A:  Hello Dana, my name is Tiffany with Kohler Co. I am happy to answer the question about the Bancroft faucet. This faucet can be used in either an overflow or a non-overflow installation. The drain included does contain an overflow, and would not work in your application. Drain model number K-7114-CP, would be more appropriate for a non overflow installation. Thank you for choosing The Bold Look Of Kohler.
