Yes you can attach the bidet to your faucet and it has a valve at the end that attaches to the faucet which diverts the water to the bidet or let it pass-through. In my experience with this bidet, you should keep the water passthrough most of the time, only when you want to use the bidet, open the faucet and turn the valve to send the water into the bidet. It works wonderful.

yes, you can use the tap with this hose attachment. It has a valve to divert the water from the tap to the hose when you want to use the hose. When you want to use the hose you have to turn the valve, the water to the hose does not stay on all the time. I hooked this sprayer up to the water coming in for the toilet with a diverter instead of hooking it up to my sink faucet and it works great.

Absolutely you still can! There is a little switch kind of thing that you flip when you want to switch between the faucet and the bidet.

Yes, you can still use the basin tap for other uses. There is a diverter switch you push when you want to use the handheld bidet. It will stay on until you flip it back to the normal position. I've had mine for several weeks now and have been very happy with it and amazed with how much versatility it's given me, using it over the tub to wash out buckets, etc. No more sore back from leaning down under the tub faucet. The steel hose is long, which is convenient but also a little bulky to store. It appears to be excellent quality.

The water still comes out from the faucet. You just have to turn the nozel to get the water to come out the hose and back again to get the water through the faucet.

Do NOT use hot tap water. It comes from the hot water tank - think about it. That should never be used for drinking. Boil the water in a kettle instead.

It really depends on how hard your tap water is. I have naturally soft water at our house so the unit is fine. If you are really concerned even with soft water or need to use a water softener for your house then use distilled water.

I must confess: I don't know how to measure how fast water comes from a cooler tap. I like the lever that you press with your glass or whatever to start the water flow; sort of like a soft drink dispenser at a fast food store. And while that water is pouring into my glass or ice cube tray, I have never once thought, "I wish the water was shooting out faster!" Neither do I find the spray so strong that I fear it will rip the glass from my hand! Hope that helps you!

If you hook up the hose, then the water will only run through the hose. When you unhook the hose, the water runs through the shower head.

I would buy the Do It Thread Faucet Adapter. I screw the hose directly to the adapter, then screw the internal thread ( I do not know the real name for it : ) directly to my kitchen faucet. It took me a couple of tries till I got the feel of it. It works great. Now I can water plants on the deck. And I use the same method for the bathroom sink. No more filling up water containers. : )

I have the same problem and I fiddle with hose and tilt the basin to the side where it drains,and the water comes out. You will never get all the water out,and you need to turn the basin upside down in your tub or sink to get the rest of the water out.

You can use either. I started using the bucket only on mine, but it filled very quickly. It took &lt; 24 hrs to fill the bucket then it goes into kind of a standby mode waiting for the bucket to be emptied. I had to switch the the hose (by default it works with just the bucket, but you can attach the drain hose and water goes there instead).

Untreated water means not directly from the faucet. I've used store bought distilled water and I've used boiled tap water. I prefer the boiled tap water - I do extra water - I let it cool before using in the pump and use the extra to flush out the system when done. It is a pain waiting for the water to boil and then cool, but it gives better control over the temperature of the water. I find the distilled water cold and have to warm it anyway.

I just use regular tap water out of the faucet. I only fill it for a few days when we need it. It doesn't have a pump or anything so it's a drain and fill pool.

No, since I've never seen the hose I figured I would just ask if it would work. I thought possibly I could just run the water through the hose to fill the container. Our water is terrible and although double filtering sounds unnecessary, I figure it can't hurt.

You will only use what come from the small "filtered" faucet. I used the center connection on my existing faucet. Mine has supply lines on the outside, and blends for the warm faucet output in the center. The box contained a fitting for that center. I used that one and attached there which was very simple. So I turn on cold only to filter and on with the Ispring tap and fill my refrig dispenser.Note: To reduce wasted water (I already had one), I use an inexpensive shutoff valve ($9.00 Home Depot)on the end of the regular faucet.

I was confused too, but I believe you add water to activate it. However I believe that you don't want to do it until you're ready to use it.

Yes it has a gravel attachment that comes with it. The tap attachment is for a UK outside screw tap but I have managed to use a hose tap attachment to use indoors. You will find it the best clean and fill ever! No more lugging buckets of water again. The hose is super long too. It is very easy to use also. I am unsure where you are but if you are in the UK go through Amazon.com and not UK it works out so much cheaper even with the import payments. Good luck :)

I just use tap water, I have 3 other diffusers and all use tap water too. But this one broke and I sent it back and purchased a different one.

Yes,...I use tap water and oils all the time...but it is best if you use filtered water...because it comes free of foreign matter.The most important issue is that you clean and air it out after every use...water left to itself tends to fester.
