I have a 2000 H340 and the faucets in the galley have started to leak under the knobs when the water is turned on. I have not had a chance to take look under the knob and I was just wondering what I was in for. Are these cartridge type or washer type, etc? Any advice would be apprecitaed.

I'm not sure what Hunter used in 2000 models, but in a 1990 H-33.5 the used washer type. I replaced mine in Aug-2008 (they kept leaking) with a Price-Pfister Laundry fawcet with 4" centers from Lowes. Direct replacement and works great. It was under $30. I replaced the Vanity sink fawcets then also, but the one that fit was a Glacier Bay from Home Depot.

John...

Pop the knob off, remove the valve, and take it to a home center store. In the plumbing dept. you'll find a multitude of replacement valves. Match it up to the correct one and you'll have a replacement for under $10.
