Does "Use the included faucet adaptor to drink straight from the tap" mean I can use it without the bucket? Can handle faucet water pressure directly?

It can handle faucet water directly, but I wouldn't put it on full force mainly because the outflow of it is small and the pressure may be too much depending on how much water pressure you have.

Yes, the SP191 comes with the faucet adapter which is separate from the bucket adapter. You just disconnect the filter from the bucket and attach it to the faucet adapter. Then you can drink straight from the faucet.

You will need to supply water to the faucet by a hose. The faucet is a simple sink faucet and you can leave it on and control the water by the hose if you like

Connecting to a pressure source like a sink tap is not the intended use. This has a manual pump for pumping non-potable water in an emergency situation. It is said to even be able to pump water from a creek and make it safe to drink. It has a limitation on how much water it can safely purify but I purchased this pump for emergency water usage only.

Mine came with a couple of different adapters.. I can't say for sure which, if any, of them would accommodate your faucet. I will say that you can get any size adapter you may need from any big box hardware store for very little cost (prob under a dollar). I love mine. Good construction, works great.

Yes, two totally separate items. You can buy just the faucet without the dispenser on amazon. Just do a search

You can drink as if you do out of a faucet. not designed to drink directly out of it, but you can.

I only use the bucket, however in the manual it says: you can use a 12 mm hose to attach to the connector (which comes with the unit) - Hope this helps!

No. The unit I had did not have a direct water connection (although some models now do). It had a removable reservoir. You pulled the container out from the machine, filled it under the faucet, and replaced it in the machine. I had wanted one with a plumbed-in direct water supply, but mine did not have that feature. In any case, I couldn't find anyone in my area to work on the thing and got rid of it long ago. It was a huge waste of money. Coffee making isn't that complicated and there are far less expensive machines available today that do a much more efficient job than this Miele.

I got it with a dedicated faucet. You'll have to contact the company about it's use.

At first, I couldn't get the water tank off - I had to fill it by putting the whole unit under the faucet. Then, my husband got it "unstuck," so yes, you can remove it. My problem with the unit is that I can't get enough pressure unless I put my hand in the water and keep the black plastic thing-a-ma-jig slightly raised on one side. Very annoying!

My faucet came with adapters to connect to the new faucet. I was able to install it without buy any additional parts. At first, I thought I could connect the faucet with my existing connectors and not use the ones that came with the unit. I discovered that I could not. I used the hardware that came with the faucet and it installed fine. I did save the old connectors in case I change faucets again. This faucet is the best I've had. It works great and shuts off securely.

mine came with an adapter which allowed for either internal or external threaded connection. Threw my adapter away since the unit readily screwed on my kitchen arm sink faucet. But even if the included adapter does not fit, you can get adapters at any good hardware store or if not, at a plumbing supply store or even the big boxes like Home Depot or Lowes, so don't hesitate. This one has outlasted my last three plastic ones and continues to perform well four years later... I even remove it every few days to hook up my reverse osmosis unit and the threads show no sign of wear. This puppy is head & shoulders above the China-made plastic imitations, most of which wear out quickly and don't allow flexing as widely so as to reach anywhere in the sink.

This isn't a water filter faucet. It has two lines- one for hot an cold. I suppose you could have your plumber rig it however you want. But it would just be regular cold tap water.

Yes - You can attach a garden hose without any additional adapter - This is why I purchased this unit for my sink in the garage - It fits the bill and works fine.

No, the tank is not designed for in-line plumbed installation under pressure, per manufacturer's documentation. And I don't think the spigot fittings could handle the additional pressure, as there is already significant pressure from gravity on the large volume column of water. When the tank is full, the spigot pressure from gravity already feels like 60-80 psi or more. Not sure what that would do, hooked up to your household plumbing. Could potentially back-feed the public water supply if the pressure got low enough on the main line?

Id suggest a different route. The sink idea works fine and if you let it take over your sink faucet you can do that with no extra add ons it comes with the adapter. Id purchase the hose adapter though and use it else where in the house!

I had no need to do that. But, u might want to consider an adapter size to fit? Half an inch diameter seems to me would be sufficient with the water pressure I have. Hope this helps.
