Installation Guide

INSTALLATION OF THE FAUCET
!
1 New Faucet Preparation
Shut off the water supply and remove the old faucet by disconnecting from the supply tubes
under the sink, and unscrewing the faucet from the countertop by removing mounting nuts.
Clean the sink top surface in preparation for the new faucet.
2 Install Faucet on Sink Top
First, screw the bolts into the faucet and place in position on the sink top. Optional: use silicone
under the base plate for stronger water tight seal. Now, from under the sink, take the provided
plastic nuts and screw them all the way onto the bolts, and while using your hands ONLY,
alternate until they are nearly flush with the underside of the sink top to lock the faucet into
place.
3 Install Faucet Hoses
Slide water supply hoses into faucet’s provided brass shank connection, and slide nut up to a
flush position. Carefully hand tighten nuts, then use a wrench to hold the hoses securely into
place. Plumbers tape may be used to help prevent leaks.
4 Remove Aerator and Flush
Once installation of the hoses is complete, remove the aerator. Turn the water supply on and
allow both hot and cold water to run for at least 30 to 60 seconds each. While water is running,
check for leaks around and under the sink. Once done replace aerator and start enjoying your
new Dura Faucet!
