    The product, in the report: American Standard Fairbury pull down kitchen faucet.

    Purchased a new kitchen faucet named Fairbury from American Standard plumbing products company. After about 6 months, the leeching of plastic tubing from the pull down water line to the spray head tasted like ‘plastic whiskey’, contacted American Standard, they sent me a brand new complete faucet. Installed that one, again, about 6 mos later, same taste. It occurs while water sits in the supply line to the head, not the supply lines from the shut off valves to the control cartridge. I eliminated the lines from shut offs, filter and concluded it is the supply line to the spray head. I’m sure we’re not the only one’s with the problem, suggest a line replacement to the head recall. To get rid of the taste, must run the water between 15-40 secs (approx). No injuries known, concerned with aftereffects of effluent leeching.
