How to fix a leaking Kohler Forté® single-control kitchen sink faucet?

Thursday, October 2nd, 2008
netnewbie asked:


I have a Kohler Forté® single-control kitchen sink faucet with sidespray and lever handle. It started leaking last week whenever I turn the cold water on. But it does not leak when I turn the hot water on.

Is there any way for me to fix it myself? or I have to replace the entire faucet? Thanks!
It should be a Kohler Coralais® single-control pullout spray kitchen sink faucet with color-matched sprayhead and lever handle faucet, not a Forté® single-control.

What do you use your Kitchen Sink for?

Thursday, October 2nd, 2008
SteelEntrepreneur asked:


I have been wondering about this question since a while now. For several decades, the stainless steel Kitchen Sink has not seen any new innovation or product design change. I am an entrepreneur who is looking to fill this void and need your help to design the right Kitchen Sink and meet the customer needs.

My kitchen sink has a pretty bad smell coming from the garbage disposal. How do I clean it?

Monday, September 29th, 2008
Greg J asked:


My kitchen sink garbage disposal reeks pretty bad, and I can’t seem to find a good way to keep it clean for more than a week. It’s almost like food waste just sits in there and doesn’t go down the drain. Anyone know a good way to really, REALLY, clean out that area, since it’s hard to get to?

Does anybody know any home remedy to get rid of the stink from a kitchen sink’s garbage disposer?

reflections85 asked:


I’ve heard you can pour various items or throw various items down a kitchen sink and make it smell more pleasing.

Anyone got a real solution? My kitchen sink smells real bad.

If i need to remove my kitchen sink but can’t replace for two week, what about the water?

Wednesday, September 24th, 2008
gaminegirlie asked:


I want to replace my kitchen sink, but I am in a townhome complex where five units are all attached to the same water line. I have no way to control my own water without taking down four other units. Would it work to turn off the main water line until I get the water out of the sink pipes and then close the valves that distribute to the sink and then turn the main line back on and be able to take a shower without having an issue for a couple of weeks or a month?

Is there a deodorizer that I can pour down my kitchen sink to eliminate odor?

Miss Brooke asked:


Not sure why, but my sink smells bad. I don’t have a garbage disposer, just a regular kitchen sink. I am looking for a deodorizer to pour down it to eliminate odor. Thanks so much!

How do you clean the filter inside the kitchen faucet sink?

Saturday, September 20th, 2008
Charlie S. asked:


We have very low water pressure in our kitchen sink, which happened right after we put in a new water heater. I was told that there might be calcium deposits on the filter, and I tried to get it off, but I couldn’t get it. Is there a trick? Note: there is no other problems with any of the other faucets/toilets in the rest of the house. Thanks

Do you pour your kitchen grease down the sink or collect it in a jar and send it to the landfill?

Friday, September 19th, 2008
Common Sense asked:


Preventing cooking grease from polluting our water supply — not to mention clogging our kitchen sink — is such a simple thing to do. But most people don’t bother. It seems they would rather spend money on nasty chemicals like Liquid Drano or call a plumber. Millions of American households are needlessly polluting our waters.
