    How to Replace a Tuscany Faucet Cartridge<\/b><\/h3>\n

      \n
    • Turn off the water to the faucet by using the shut-off valve underneath the sink.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
    • If your faucet comes with decorative covers, you need to pop off the plastic cap from each handle. You will need a flat head screwdriver to find the screw in the cap.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
    • Removing the handle comes next. The exact steps to follow would depend on the type of faucet setup.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
    • One handle faucets will feature a screw on the front of the handle covered with a water temperature indicator or nameplate. You will need the Allen Key to unscrew it and remove the handle. After that, you will have to twist the bonnet or dome to get to the cartridge.<\/span><\/li>\n
    • Two handle faucets come with the screws on top. You will need a screwdriver to remove each screw and then pull it straight upwards to remove the handles.<\/span><\/li>\n
    • Two angled handles might have their screws in different spots. If the screw is located on the side, you will have to use an Allen key to loosen it and pull the handle off.<\/span><\/li>\n
    • Other two handles faucets might require that you take off a bonnet nut or retailing nut using the wrench. In this faucet setup, you should see a plastic cylindrical piece with a stem on top. That’s the cartridge.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
