When to Replace Your Kitchen Faucet

As one of the most used fixtures in your home, kitchen faucets are integral to daily life. They are relied upon for cleaning dishes, washing fruits and vegetables, and even filling up the kettle for tea. Over time, however, wear and tear may take its toll, with signs of wear emerging over time. If you need more clarification on whether it's time for an upgrade to replace your current kitchen faucets, here are some warning signs to look out for. If you notice any of these signs, it's time to call in the experts at High Speed Plumbing. Our team of professional plumbers can help you with faucet replacement, ensuring that your new fixture is installed correctly and works perfectly. Don't let a faulty faucet disrupt your daily routine.

Are You Suffering From Hard Water

 If your kitchen faucet shows signs of mineral buildup, that could be an indicator that it contains hard water containing high amounts of calcium and magnesium minerals, which, over time, build up on it, leaving unsightly stains while diminishing water flow - meaning hard water users may require replacing their faucet more frequently than those living in areas with soft water sources.

Do You Have an Old Faucet

If your kitchen faucet is over 10 years old, it may be time for a replacement. Old faucets often become worn down over time and corrode easily - an upgrade to something modern can restore functionality while adding style.

Rust on the Faucet

Rusty faucets can be an indicator of corrosion that weakens fixtures and increases leak risk, not to mention make your kitchen appear unsightly or outdated. When rust appears on a fixture, it should be promptly addressed before further corrosion occurs. When this occurs, it should be immediately addressed to stop further corrosion from occurring over time and potentially leading to leakage issues or looking unsightly and outdated - so should any corrosion take hold in its wake, it is best replaced immediately before further corrosion sets in!

Leaky Faucet

If your kitchen faucet leaks, it may be time for a replacement. Leaks waste precious water resources while damaging sink and countertop surfaces - not to mention increasing your utility bill! A leak may also signal larger plumbing issues requiring professional intervention.

Poor Water Pressure

If your kitchen has low water pressure, the cause could be due to a damaged or clogged faucet. Over time, debris buildup and mineral accumulation can restrict water flow, which reduces pressure. If cleaning doesn't help improve it, replacing may be in order.
