We would prefer to be able to open a valve and let water run, rather than hold a lever. Does this faucet allow hands-free water flow?

Yes, the lever can be left in the on position to fill. We do this regularly with the kettle.
1962375
Yes it does. You don't need to hold the lever to let the water run. We had it for over a year and had no problem, it works great.

This faucet operates as hands free by touching the body, once, to begin the flow at the hot-cold setting you pre-select by adjusting the handle. The water runs continuously until you shut off the flow by, once again, touching the body. You can, also, use the handle to manually adjust the water flow or to turn off.

Yes it does. The handle moves 1/4 turn to the full open position. It's a nice faucet.

Yes. But the water pressure is horrible. I would not reccomend this faucet because of water flow. It is a beautiful faucet although.

Not really but it's easy to hold the wand in one hand and control the water flow with the other hand.

Yes. It is a quarter turn valve that can be positioned closed, fully open, or anywhere in between to control the water flow. It will stay where you put it until you move it, no springs or anything to bring it back closed automatically.

Yes, but you should consider your flow requirements when the valve is open. It's only a 3/4" valve, so there could be unacceptable pressure drop with high flow rates such as if you use it to control water to your entire house. The supplier may be able to provide a chart of pressure drop vs flow rate, or another Amazon user may have insight into this. My application doesn't require high flow.

Yes it does, that is the what the 2.5 gpm rating is specifying (as not to exceed 2.5gpm). The button is not intended for regulation, it is intended for shutting "off" the flow (less a trickle, for indicating that the water valve itself is still on) for ease of use by those with disabilities. That is why we by them for our facility, high use, durable, and inexpensive to replace. (Facility Director)

Yes, the faucet handle only moves about 2-3 inches and should work fine. The spray feature pulls down much more.

You can still use your faucet unrestricted (to wash your hands), or pull the switch to divert water to the filter. This block filter has a much faster flow than a traditional granulated filter. Still, I turn the water flow down a little because I figure a slower flow might get filtered better. I'm not sure if that's really true. For what it's worth, I'm really happy with this filter.

Basically, you have to buy the faucet as well as a valve for it to work. The faucet is the "pretty metal facade" that you see/use, while the valve actually controls the flow of the water. When you turn the faucet handle, it basically opens/shuts the valve to allow the water to flow/not flow. A lot of manufacturers (but not all) require you to buy a separate valve as well as the faucet.

yes, it does allow you to control the flow of water. it is near the tip of shower head. it works great, warshing stuff, and transferring water from one container to another when you have a limited power source.

Its the valve opposite of where the hand help sprayer cradle is , just turn it for shower head only turn it one way or the other for the hand held or both at the same time.

Yes the hand held shower head can be angled up/down as well as left to right. You can also restrict the flow.

This is a safety factor - You must press the "unlock" button before pressing the lever to release the flow of water.

Yes u choose spray or stream (solid water). U also have two choices with streaming water. A modest amount or a heavier amount. I imagine that is for water conservation. Regardless which you choose, it is hands free

It is controlled by the faucet lever.It comes out at a slow trickle though you will not have any pressure to it.

The force of the flow and the temperature are at the faucet . The hose valve & wand button only are on/off. It is simple install and operate.I had no problems or leaks following the manufacturer's instructions.

Yes it can but there is a blue light showing the faucet is on. If the handle is turned to the off position and you touch the metal, the should be on and therefore the battery may die quicker. We dont like our faucet as much now. The touch control seemed cool, but the warer flow is always too strong or too slow for your next task. I would not recommend this item for this reason.
