Your drain line is either plugged or running very slow. The water coming from the back of the faucet is just releasing water that won't go down the drain. You might need to drill a slightly larger hole into the drain pipe where the black line connects to the drain.

Yes. You are likely siphoning back through the vent in the faucet. This vent is only required in California. I contacted Watts and the sent me a check valve and instruction to install it and my has worked without issue since (6 - 7) months.

It's probably coming from the air gap. If so, the drain line from the RO faucet to the sink drain has an obstruction. Previous responders have coverd this well.

Easy fix. Either the black drain line has a low spot and has clogged with the contaminants from the brine water. Or more likely, the saddle around the drain pipe moved and the drain line is no longer aligned with the hole in the drain pipe. Pull off the black line and insert a sharp pencil into the fitting on the drain pipe. (Or use a hand mirror to look) See that the hole in the drain pipe is aligned with the fitting. If not, just loosen the "saddle" and rotate it to align the drain tube with the hole. Be sure that the black drain tube drops into the fitting without any low spots while you're messing with it.

The black tube that runs from the faucet into your sink drain is likely plugged with food. It sits below the garbage disposal. Try loosening the fitting on the drain saddle that the black tube runs through, and removing the black line from the drain saddle. That alone may unplug it. Check to see it is plugged, and unplug it with a screwdriver tip or Qtip of it is still plugged.

Mine leaks as well - check the lid and see if the silicon ring is missing or damaged. I believe that's the cause for my leak. Still checking to see if I can replace that part...

I have the same faucet and no issues whatsoever. Could it be a part is missing on not properly installed? Good luck!

Hello. they will leak if you tighten by hand. they are tight so I used a set of needle nose piliers. Make sure it is tight or they will leak and you'll have to start over by taking off the unit completely. Save the time even if you have to take it to Lowes to see what pliers tighten them. Then you'll love the faucet. good luck

I absolutely love this faucet and sprayer and haven't had any issues with leaking. I did have it professionally installed. Perhaps that made a difference? Good luck!

I would recommend soaking the lid in vinegar for awhile, and i have even cleaned the float valve (? - circular stop valve) w/ q-tips -- clean that area out really well. I would also recommend highly to use coffee filters vs. the reuable gold filter. Once i cleaned and used disposible filters -- it stopped the leaking. Good luck to you~!

Good luck! My tank leaked on mine and I was unable to find just the tank. This is reportedly a problem with this model. My faucet was ok, just the tank....would have purchased something else, but due to no clearance on the splashback am stuck with this model. If you find where you can buy just the tank, I would appreciate your sharing, since the lifespan is only about 3 years from what I have read. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful.

My machine did leak a bit too. When I moved the machine forward to fill up, I noticed water underneath it. My husband opened the machine up. There is a snap on piece and draws hot water up. He put silicone grease on it and it stopped. I will get more details soon on what he did.

Nope. I've owned three, zero leaks. Could it be overfilled? If you can verify the leak (maybe from a line?) I'd send it back. Good luck!

I have this facet, I had to tighten the hose so it won't leak. I would call them at Amazon to fine out if its a leak or just need's to be tighten. Or just call Light In The Box they should be able to advise you the route to go.

Oh no! Mine just started leaking too and I'm not sure if it's too late to return it. Let me know what happens with yours. I really have enjoyed this dispenser until now.

Weird! I just had a repairman in today about the same issue. That is why I came to this site just now & saw your comment. I am trying to find out if I had any type of warranty. I bought mine in May of 2012 & it stopped working properly about 6 months ago. There is some sort of leak. It is going to cost about $400 to repair - that is including $85 for coming out & diagnoising problem.

I finally installed this faucet a couple weeks ago. We noticed that everytime we connect our portable dishwasher to it it leaks under the sink. I see water dripping from the center where the tubes go up into th ebody. Has anone ever seen this? Is there a fix? It only seems to happen when under pressure.

Ours is leaking uncontrollably. We had the maintenance guy in our building come put it in so I know it's not an installation error.

I had the same problem and I don't know if it was a coincidence or not but after I gave it a good cleaning it stopped. Now maybe you can tell me how to stop it from leaking? It constantly drips and if I don't forget to watch it I end up with water all over my counter.

sorry, I returned my unit because it was leaking everywhere. I never got any further. Perhaps there's dried soap in the nozzle? try a open paper clip and see if there isn't a clog
