How Does A Faucet Work?

Understanding Valves

The valve lives inside the cartridge housing. It operates via moving the faucet handle from side to side. This motion allows for varying amounts of hot and cold water to flow through the diamond-embedded disc. They enter and combine inside the ceramic dic and then flow out of the faucet.

Understanding Discs

The discs slide back and forth on top of each other, allowing water to move through one hole or the other. Hot or cold water will flow out of the faucet depending on the position of the discs.

Voila…water! Your Delta faucet is more than just a pretty accent in your kitchen. But once you break it all down, the inner workings of a faucet don’t seem so complicated.
