A technician demonstrates how to replace a cartridge on an Ella 5-piece fast-fill faucet set. This video addresses issues like a dripping faucet or a stiff handle on walk-in tubs.
The process begins with removing the colored cap on the handle, then loosening the bolt with a 3-millimeter Allen wrench to lift off the handle. Next, the plastic collar under the handle is removed. This step is crucial for accessing the faucet cartridge.
Using a 17-millimeter socket wrench, the technician loosens and removes the cartridge. The cartridge is then checked for debris, foreign objects, or calcification, and cleaned with a soft brush if needed, then rinsed. This cleaning can often resolve issues with a stiff faucet handle or a faucet that drips.
The technician replaces the cleaned cartridge, tightening it without over-torquing, and then replaces the plastic collar. Finally, the handle is reattached in the correct position, the Allen bolt is tightened firmly, and the colored cap is replaced. This procedure is applicable to Ella walk-in tubs equipped with a 5-piece fast-fill faucet.
