Hi,
I have a 7-8 year old ladylux cafe kitchen faucet. A few months ago it started to drip. We ordered a new cartridge but it still drips. Only the hot water drips even when the handle is off and turned to cold. Replaced cartridge 3 times (courtesy of Grohe) and today I had the plumber out. He said it's not the cartridge because it doesn't make sense that if it's off and turned to cold that it would drip hot water. He took the whole thing apart but nothing and it is still dripping. Any suggestions? Help

a bad cartridge will cause that problem but since you have tried 3 oem cartridges and still have the same problem i would say that the problem is with the body of the faucet and you need to replace the whole thing

Good Luck. Insulate your hot piping, although costly, it will pay you back every day.
