I've got a kitchen drinking tap, picture here:-

It's started dripping. It's impossible to reach the underside of the tap without taking half the kitchen apart. Does the main body of the device unscrew from the top ? and if so can I get it apart to fix the problem ?



TIA


You can't remove it without access to the other side of the worktop - there's a nut holding it in place.

However, if all you want to do is change the washer, then this is done from above - you don't need to remove it to change the washer (nor would it be helpful to do so).

Ours are a little different, so I can't tell you exactly what to do, but basically you pull out the spout (it should just pull out), then you lever out the on/off lever, then you can access the washer.
