    1. First turn off the sluice, and then remove the small screws. Look at the parts in the faucet, remove the fill nut, and turn the spool or shaft in the same direction that you turned on the faucet to unscrew them.

    2. Remove the screws that hold the washer in place, and if necessary, use penetrating lubricating oil to loosen the screws. Inspect the screws and spool and replace them with new ones if damaged. Change a brand new gasket, change a new gasket normal faucet will not drip anymore.

    You can see if the old gasket is beveled or flat, and remember to replace it with the same new gasket. Gaskets designed for cold water only expand violently when hot water flows through them, clogging the outlet and slowing down the flow of hot water. Some gaskets work in both hot and cold water, but make sure that the gasket you buy for replacement is exactly the same as the original.

    3. Reinstall the faucet and put the button or disc back on, turn on the water supply again, and check if there is any leakage.
