Bobfirst 6 Posted June 2 Share Posted June 2 (edited) The pressure button to change from flow to spray doesn’t work. Can we buy a replacement piece for the end ? How does it come off? Edited June 2 by Bobfirst Bathroom sink & shower faucet Link to post Share on other sites

If the picture is in your computer - simply click on "Choose files" below and go to where you have that picture stored in your computer. Then double left click on the picture and wait until it is uploaded (usually 30 seconds or so). Bill Edited June 2 by topgun2 Sure does help if I would go back to the top of the page to see the photo - sorry! 2017 Ford F150 Lariat 3.5EB FX4 Max Towing 2016 Oliver Elite II - Hull #117 "Twist" Link to post Share on other sites
Moderators SeaDawg 878 Posted June 2 Moderators Share Posted June 2 If this is the Dura kitchen faucet / sprayer that I believe it is, the replacement is about $20 with free amazon prime shipping/free returns. If it's the Scandvik model we have in the older trailers, the replacement head for their similar model is over $40, direct from Scandvik. The Oliver website lists 1 year warranty for the faucet, but Dura shows "limited lifetime warranty" on their catalog that I downloaded. It's always worth asking, imo. There are several listings on Amazon, with dimensions, so you should be able to verify that it's the right one. Their listing says it fits all Dura pullouts. https://www.amazon.com/Dura-Faucet-DF-RK850-CP-Designer-Replacement/dp/B009Y05M8M/ref=pd_lpo_263_t_2/138-7547063-1507704?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B009Y05M8M&pd_rd_r=76c0b342-1688-4245-a196-7f1203fb3d09&pd_rd_w=W9QrM&pd_rd_wg=P3Gbp&pf_rd_p=7b36d496-f366-4631-94d3-61b87b52511b&pf_rd_r=P6GTRJNQF23D5KTP45F3&psc=1&refRID=P6GTRJNQF23D5KTP45F3 Sherry 2 2008 Ram 1500 4 × 4 2008 Oliver Elite, Hull #12 Link to post Share on other sites
Bobfirst 6 Posted June 2 Author Share Posted June 2 Yes the correct Dura Model Number IS DF-RKF 850-SN for 2017 Oliver Elite II. Although the manual says only 1 yr warranty, Dura website states ‘limited lifetime warranty. Waiting to hear back from customerservice@durafaucet.com Link to post Share on other sites
Moderators SeaDawg 878 Posted June 2 Moderators Share Posted June 2 (edited) Like I said, no harm in asking. I've had home faucets replaced by delta, no questions asked, just a photo of the problem. Other brands, too. If Dura doesn't recognize this as warranty, at least it's minimal, and an easy swap out. My faucets in the 2008 are Scandvik. Haven't had an issue, so I don't know their policy. I also have three replacement Scandvik faucets on our boat, about 10 years old. No issues there, either. Good luck. Let us know how it works out.

routlaw 29 Posted June 5 Share Posted June 5 Do regular household faucets and other plumbing fixtures work with the RV industry. I was under the impression, perhaps incorrectly, RV plumbing has different size fittings. The faucets and fixtures in our Oliver leave a bit to be desired and it would be a nice upgrade to replace them all. Thanks Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks The Delta faucet I used in our kitchen is not an RV faucet, just a regular house faucet. It fit fine.

Moderators Overland 1,014 Posted June 5 Moderators Share Posted June 5 The story I was told is that in order to get RVIA certification, all the plumbing fixtures have to be RVIA approved. It's probably a racket, but that's supposedly why Oliver had to switch from the marine faucet in the bath. Like Mike, I swapped out our kitchen faucet, too. 1 Snowball • 256 • 2018 Ford Raptor Link to post Share on other sites

I thought they might changed to the Dura because the little triangular handles on the original Scandvik faucets were so hard to operate with soapy hands.😃 I thought Csa and rvia standards are supposed to be virtually interchangeable these days. Many faucets are certified CSA, but I I don't know about Scandvik marine faucets. I just know they're really heavy, and have been very reliable for us. The newer Duras are probably much easier to use, though. Sherry 2008 Ram 1500 4 × 4 2008 Oliver Elite, Hull #12 Link to post Share on other sites
Moderators Overland 1,014 Posted June 5 Moderators Share Posted June 5 (edited) That could be. I don't remember who told me that but it could have just been Oliver's way of telling me I'd customized too many things already.

Moderators SeaDawg 878 Posted September 14 Moderators Share Posted September 14 (edited) For those of you with Delta faucets anywhere, I had my first failure with a Delta product, at home. It wasn't even a leaker, just "cosmetic." The colored red coating on my Delta Fuse kitchen faucet has developed some dings and scratches in 5 years of use. Delta stepped up. Asked for photos, and original receipt. It has been discontinued, but Delta sent me a new, similar faucet in brushed stainless. Since I have many Delta products in my home, including all the shower valves, I was really heartened to get such a quick response. That said, I'll really miss that touch of red in the kitchen.
