I am still wondering about the hot and cold water installation lines on this faucet.The pic does not show the water lines coming out under the faucet, only the main trunk that fits through the sink. How do you install the hot &amp; cold lines?

It comes with extra long supply lines that are color coded, set up for a standard 3/8" supply valve, VERY EASY INTALLATION!!

Hello Madlin: You are not getting water into the hose leading from your water supply to the unit. I wish I could help but I had a plumber install mine. I believe that the plumber may have hooked my cold water line into the tank. Then the hot into the water line under the sink. Try phoning the store. I got mine at Amazon. Sorry Madlin, and good luck.

I installed the sink/faucet. They work very well. My wife and I HAVE NOT encountered any loud noises when turning the water on - in fact our faucet runs rather quietly. Has anyone encountered the sink not fitting flat, having a slight wobble/turn? Thanks

You should be connecting the faucet to fexible "faucet connector" hoses which then connect to the water inlet valves under your sink. These valves normally connect to your " INNNER diameter copper pipe that supplies the water (comes out from the wall under sink. You can choose to change the inlet valves (usually screw right off/on) or use flexible faucet connector hoses that have connectors at each end which fit your valve and faucet. Take the faucet to home depot or other store to be sure. Get faucet connector hoses that match that end. Measure the INNER (hole) and OUTER (threads) diameters of the inlet shut-off valves under the sink. Also measure the inner & outer diameters of the fitting that is soldered on to the " copper pipe coming from the wall. You need to know which measurement the shut-off valve package is referring to when you look at the package at the store. BTW- If you decide to replace your shut-off valves under your sink (we did - always a good idea if you don't know how old they are) use the turn style. They work better in an emergency, or when doing any plumbing work on your sink!) If you do this, shut the water off at the main valve to the house, put a drip container under the pipe fitting to catch any dripping water. Drain the water from the pipes by opening 1 or 2 faucets at the highest and lowest points in the house. When it stops dripping, you can take off the sink connectors and shut-off valves under the sink. Then so your work. Finally, some tips: 1. Look up how to do this on youTube. There are great videos there. 2. Take photos (we use our cell phones) or video when you remove each piece, so you remember where evrerything goes when replacing it. Also, it help when you're explaining what you need when you talk to the clerk at the hardware store. Have fun!

You have hot and cold going to your valve now. This unit requires hot and cold to the unit. Bottom line you need a Plummer to install. It works great.

The water will come out cold until you have used the faucet for quiet a while. I don't think you can have the water come out hot unless you just run the water.

Have replaced at least a half dozen since original purchase of faucet with no installation problems ,least so my wife says. She's the installer since I can't fit under the sink cabinet. Sorry I can't be of more help. Sometimes it's a bear to remove tho'.

a typical faucet set attaches with the supplied hardware. There is a nut on the bottom of the hot and cold supplies that tightens onto the sink, then the water supply lines attach. If you purchased new taps it should be straight forward. If you are using used taps, the faucet nuts may have been lost or misplaced.

Not sure what tour question is, but am wondering if you turned off the water supply before installing. I've forgotten this step and had it leak. Once I redid the installation process, it worked quote fine. If that's not the problem, maybe it is a defective filter? Wishing you luck.

We had a handyman do the job.It looks like the cold water to the bidet is connected directly to the toilet supply line and the hot water to the sink supply line. Hope this helpsGeeta

I purchased a plate to cover faucet holes... if you are converting a three hole faucet you need the plate. You just insert the faucet in the center hole take the washer or the ring screw it on under the sink tighten it up then connect the hot water and the cold water lines and you're done. It's very simple. Easy installion.

Overall, I am very happy with the faucet and would buy it again. Though there is a difference in the cold v. hot water with hot being less powerful than the cold. I think this has more to do with the way it was installed. I had other problems with my contractor so I believe the difference is due to the way they installed it. Hope this helps.

Mr. Schafer and Mr. Dave have mentioned two good things to look at. I think a kink in the hot water line to the faucet is the most probable cause. But you should also check the shutoff valves emerging from the wall below the faucet -- if the hot water valve is only partly opened, it will restrict the amount of hot water available at the faucet. So make sure those shutoff valves are fully open ("lefty, loosey" or counterclockwise, if you prefer) for both the hot and cold supplies.

It installs just like a regular faucet...it looks complicated but it's not. one line for hot one line for cold and one line for the feed. Hope this helps. I think there's a longest one or shortest one that the feed. I bought this about a year ago and we really like it for the price.

Yes, your hot and cold lines coming out if the wall will hook up to this unit. I did have to pick up a different set of bushings (3/4"Male-1/2"Female). The set included had two female ends. Outside of that, it was a straight foreword installation. My only complaint is that I did not notice that the finished unit is only 46" top to bottom. I would have love at least 12 more inches of height. I am quite happy with the water pressure out of the rainfall and the handheld.

This particular faucet does not come with an assembly to mix both hot and cold water (parts are available for this though). Previous comments are accurate, once you combine the hot and cold supply lines, the tempurature can be adjusted via the ball valves beneath the sink. Also note that this is a commercial grade faucet and this is not something you would typically install in your home (if that is what your intent is).

You only connect to the sink line for hot water. Otherwise your cold line comes from the toilet supply line. They provided all parts for this.Yes you do not have to hook up the hot. The bidet has an automatic cut off if you use the cold only so it won't leak.Mine has worked great.
