What could cause my VanGuard to leak from the middle of the cartridge? - WKB79271

Article number: 79271

ENVIRONMENT

  • VanGuard

ANSWER

Over-tightening the VanGuard upon installation can cause the cartridge to leak.

It should be tightened only 1/4-turn.

Also:

Not seating the ferrule properly (not tightening properly) can also lead to leaks (which might look like they coming from the middle of the VanGuard (between the compression screw and the column body).
