Location Requirements
IMPORTANT: Observe all governing codes and ordinances.
Check location where faucet will be installed. Proper
installation is your responsibility. Make sure you have
everything necessary for correct installation. It is the
responsibility of the installer to comply with installation
specifications and with state and local plumbing codes.
Protect faucet and water lines leading to faucet against
freezing. Damage from freezing is not covered by the warranty.
Faucet requires a 1³⁄₈" (3.5 cm) diameter opening in sink or
countertop. If hole is not available for mounting it is
recommended that a qualified installer be contacted to drill the
hole for your installation in a sink deck or countertop.
Thickness of sink or countertop hole must not exceed 1³⁄₄"
(4.4 cm).
Hot and cold water supply lines must be available and if they
are not it is recommended that a qualified plumber install the
necessary piping.
Faucet hoses are equipped with compression type seals and
do not require sealing compounds to prevent leaking.
As with all metal objects, follow proper handling techniques.
It is recommended that a qualified plumber/installer install the
faucet. The faucet installation must comply with national and
local plumbing codes and ordinances.
The faucet should be examined for damage prior to
installation. Do not install a damaged faucet. Instead, return
the faucet to the dealer from whom you purchased it. Failure
to do so will void the warranty.
