Hi All,

My C30-CB has a very slow drip in the galley faucet. I tried tightening the screws on the hot/cold mixers, but to no avail. it's the slim faucet that can stow away under the counter. Anyone have any idea how to solve? thx...
 
Check for any filter screens with blockage? Per viewtopic.php?f=5&t=21126

Somewhat related do you have an accumulator? I'm wondering how it would maintain pressure enough to drip. Or does the pump ever cycle?

I removed the accumulator because I needed space for the watermaker :lol:

The pump every once in a great while (1x or 2x a day), which is how this mystery started. The faucet has very strong flow when I turn it on, no issue there, so not sure that other post applies. All the screens are clean, etc. I ordered new cartridges from fisheries, it seems like thats the only place the leak could be from. The washers could be compressed from age, and not completely stopping the flow when off.

Sounds like you've hit everything I can think of, and he cartridge seems likely. Good luck and let us know!
