Why do I have a hard time pulling the handle on my draft beer faucet.

A sticky faucet is usually a good indication of a dirty faucet.  All draft beer components should be cleaned on a regular basis with a chemical designed for draft beer equipment only.

How often should I clean my draft beer equipment.

Regular cleaning of the faucet, hose and coupler is very important.  Your should clean the whole system after every keg of beer.  This is a minimum requirement, and extra cleaning is always better.

How do I know if a tap handle will fit on my faucet?

All american made tap handles are made to fit on all US industry standard threads.  Both US handles and US faucets have 3/8″-16 UNC threads.  Any faucet made outside of the US such as European made faucets will not fit US standard products.  At this time there is no adapter manufactured to make these interchangeable.
