Question

When I turn on the hot water faucet in the kitchen, the handle will continue to open by itself, increasing the amount of hot water coming out. I have replaced the washer and the seat.

Hello XXXXX XXXXX,

Thank you for asking your question on Just Answer. This will happen if the stem is the problem. Many faucets have a nut that can be tightened to solve this problem. Other times packing will have to be added or the packing replaced. Some models may require the stem to be replaced. Click here for more information on the topic of faucet repair.
