Need help with my kitchen tap . I have an Amer. Stand. 6310 series tap. There is a flow out of the hot water side that is less than a pencil width and minimal pressure. Amer. Standard sent me a new cartridge and I have replaced the old one with the new one and there is no change. The default setting on the new cartridge is 0 and that is the same setting as the old one. This position I believe gives minimal protection in event of hot water scalding. 7 setting gives the coldest.
I have yet to change the setting to see if more water comes out. I might try that later.
Amer. Stand. may give me a new tap which should arrive in about a week. We have put up with this faulty tap for about one week and it has been installed for about 3 months. I have run a bike brake wire thru both water lines with the cartridge removed - I feel I have nothing to lose right now. There is no apparent blockage.
My wife thought that the hot water flow may have been interrupted when the wash machine was cyclying on and off. What else can go wrong below the cartridge? Any thoughts on this would be great.Are Amer. Stand. products good generally or this model a pos. Thanks in advance.
