Faucet Installation
Select a location to mount the faucet. It is recommended that the faucet be placed in
the extra hole provided on most sinks (many times used for a sprayer or a soap
dispenser). If this is not possible, an alternate location will be required such as:
• On the counter top next to the sink, positioned to allow the faucet spout to
drain in to the sink. This requires a 2” clearance around the faucet - both above
and under the counter top.
•
Another option is to drill a new hole into the sink rim itself, if space allows.
