How much space is needed between backsplash and faucet?

When you look at the faucet, you can see the base is the largest part. It is 2.5" wide. So you will need about 1.5" from the center of the hole to the back splash. I've had it 6+ months now, and its still a great faucet.

sorry, but I am not atnmy home where this faucet is located so I cannot measure it. I LOVE the faucet and would guess it could be very close since the handle straight up is as far as it goes back toward what would be the backsplash. Pulling forward changes the temp. To open it is a matter of pushing the handle away from the base support.

Yes, though you may need to cut off the end of the bottom lever if your faucet installs close to the wall/backsplash/etc. It's a fantastic faucet!

Yes. It goes backward equal distance from the forward position. Measure 2" from the center of the hole for the faucet to your backsplash. If it is anything less than 2" the handle will not go all the way to the cold water side.

The base of my faucet is only 1" from my backsplash. The control lever pulls forward only (with "straight up" being the hot setting).

I think you'll need a bare bones minimum space of 20X20X20; maybe 18X20X20. And, unless you are a tinyperson or very skilled at working in tight spaces, you might have a tough time installingit in that tight a space. This is a pretty good unit, and as I wrote earlier I have owned andinstalled 3 similar units over about a 20 year's time period. Some prior experience with plumbing and general installation is helpful but not absolutely necessary. How much will depend onthings like space to work in, counter to material which may need to be drilled for the faucet, plastic or older metal drain pipe, which will need to be drilled for the system drain.

Sorry I am on vacation with no access to the faucet, but because it would have been very close to backsplash, we mounted on 45 deg. offset angle.

Hi we have it installed. 35 is wo backsplash. 22 is marble. Unit is just 21.1" if I could fig a way to post pics I will. Love it. Well made. Just needed a little cutting for our plumbing. It is not flush to wall bc of marble overhang. We redid floor so that was ok

I have a small ceramic tile and grout back-splash behind my kitchen faucet that kept getting splattered with soap and water from the sink. I went to Lowe's and had them cut me a piece of clear Plexiglas to fit behind the faucet. Works well and the tile is still visible.

I suspect that the cabinet itself is not big enough to accommodate the mounting brackets and even the width of the bowl. Certainly, even if were to fit, the faucet will not fit in the back.

I had limited space as well. The handle pulls out to turn on and then moves forward and backwards to change temp. I had my Plumber install it somewhat at an angle so the handle wouldn't hit the wall behind and it actually looks fine. The faucet looks and works great! Good luck!

If you go to Kingston Brass Website you can download a Spec sheet. I printed them and gave them to my plumber for rough in prior to even receiving the faucets. It gives all of the correct dimensions for placement.

I'm coming up with 35 1/2 inches without the splash. The backsplash is a separate piece so installing it is optional. There isn't a side splash so I didn't install the backsplash since mine is positioned in a corner.

Yes, cold water control goes forward. At most, the handle may go about 1 cm behind the faucet. We have backsplash and had the same concerns but there is plenty of clearance (1 3/4 inches) between backsplash and base of faucet.

This faucet does swivel fully side to side. The issue of clearance for the handle is important! Without at least two and a half inches (2.5") from centre of mounting hole (through countertop) to the backsplash, the tip of the handle could touch the backsplash when fully turned "on" Of course, if the faucet is corner mounted or even mounted at side of sink, the issue doesn't exist.

I don't know about on the backsplash. We put ours in one of the holes in the sink that is for soap or a spray hose. Works great.

The 35" heigh is to the top of the countertop, not including the backsplash. The backsplash is an additional ~4".Thanks!Kitchen Bath Collection

You will need about 4". The faucet can move 360 degress. The handle is great, too. You push away for hot and toward yourself for cold. Love this faucet. I give it a 10 out of 10. I would highly recommend this. We purchased the brushed stainless or nickle finish - I forget which - but always looks clean and easy to clean. Hope that helps!
