    Dripping
    Just installed a pfisterfaucets Glenfield model #F-036-4GF one month ago. Now it's dripping constantly from the faucet. How do I stop it?

    Hi Elaine

    Something has gotten stuck up under the washer of the cartridge assembly. Shut off water to the faucet, remove the cartridge, pulse water on to clear lines of junk, clean cartridge and reinstall everything... should resolve issue.

    If that fails to resolve the issue, contact Price Pfister tech. support and get a replacement cartridge assembly... should be warrantied!

    Mark, thank you so much! Did exactly what you suggested, waited a couple of days, and no more dripping.
