Make sure the surroundings of the sink are cooled before mounting
the faucet to the sink after drilling. Remove all sharp edges.
Step 3
Step 4
Determine desired location for the faucet on your sink and place
a piece of masking tape on location where the hole is to be drilled.
Mark the center of the hole on the tape.
Step 1
Using a variable speed drill on the slowest speed, drill a
1
/

” pilot
hole through both porcelain and metal casing of sink at the center of
the desired location. (If drill bit gets hot it may cause the porcelain to
crack or chip), use lubricating oil or liquid soap to keep cool.
Using a 1 ¼” hole saw, proceed to drill the large hole. Keep drill speed
on the slowest speed and use lubricating oil or liquid soap to keep the
hole saw cool during cutting.
Step 2
Drill a Hole for the Faucet in a Porcelain Sink
Punch a Hole for the Faucet in a Stainless Steel Sink
Drill a ¼” pilot hole. Use a 1/2” Hole Punch and an adjustable
wrench to punch the hole in the sink. Change to the 1 1/4” Hole
Punch to enlarge the hole.
Step 5
The faucet can now be installed.
If mounting faucet to a Stainless Steel Sink you will need a 1 ¼”
Hole Punch. The faucet opening should be centered between the
back splash and the edge of the sink, ideally on the same side as
the vertical drain pipe.
Note:
Note:
Most sinks are predrilled with 1 ½” or 1 ¼” diameter hole that you can use for your RO
faucet. (if you are already using it for a sprayer or soap dispenser, see step 1).
Porcelain sinks are extremely hard and can crack or chip easily. Use extreme caution when
drilling. Premier accepts no responsibility for damage resulting from the installation of faucet.
