The spout will never leak at the swivel point but it turns smoothly without requiring any undue force to move.
Belle foret faucet leaking.

There could be leaking in the pipe especially where the pipe for the wall mount pot filler joins the main water line.
However we have discovered that the faucet leaks from the center stem.
I have seen pump bolts get loose and let it leak.
Have a belle foret pot filler.
God bless your efforts.
Someone yourself skilled at plumbing will need to determine whether the leak requires new parts or simply the addition of teflon tape to seal the threads of the joint.
If you re trying to create a turn of the century vibe or even if you just like the faucet s style it looks great.
We are not sure if it is due to the error of the installer or product flaw.
The center stem has two joins that connect the faucet together.
Like all kitchen faucets the handles may develop a leak from a faulty or worn washer.
When the main water line is turned off water leaks from where it comes out of the wall.
Sure hope its and easy fix for you and you don t have to pull the trans.
Only an inspection of the line will reveal it.
This will cause spraying of water although you might not be aware of it in the kitchen itself.
If you take off the dust cover you would be able to see if it is maybe running down from the front seal or from around the front pump.
Replacing the washer can generally be accomplished with only two standard tools and one trip to the hardware.
