Can these be used in any position without leaks? I want to install on a sink downtube to divert water out of my sewer.

It's a diverting valve so you always going to have 2 ports that will be open to one another. The valve does close off against its seat without leaking. I have mine on a pool pump with 30 psi of pressure and they don not leak.

You can only do this with a pressure reducer. These work much better with gravity feed. I looked but was unable to find a pressure reducer that lowered the water pressure enough do they didn't leak a lot

This would go between your washer and the supply. It could be done but not a job for amateurs. You would need on for hot and cold. These are best placed in the cold line that comes into the house.

I guess you could, the rim is above the overflow drain cover. "Attachment" would probably be different than for a sink, tho. I'd want to see it or get specs off the website first... BTW, this is already the deepest tub I've ever seen.

If it's not installed right, of course leakage is possible. Have a professional install it for you.

Yes you can. See this video from Youtube. This is how I fixed my leak successfully. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IRpkklLqoKI

I haven't tried that. But I have had two of these under my bed for emergencies. They've been there for many months now, maybe more than a year, and I've had no leaks.

No, you can use your old hoses, just be sure to put Teflon tape around The tail piece connection when you screw old hose into new faucet, so you will not have any leaks. However, this faucet does not have a drain stopper, if you need to fill the basin with water, you will need a rubber drain plug or buy the other faucet with a drain popper-upper on it. I did not want water to ever stand in sink as my application was for commercial bathroom sink and I did not want customers to have option to plug sink up. Hope this helps, good faucet!!!

Yes but I would not buy them again...had troubles with leaks from bottom. Might have been user error since you have to screw on bottom tightly.

I would not suggest it, only areas that do not drain are on either side of spout, they are very small.

Yes you can with no problem at all. It's about a couple inches from open hindge. Love mine but I did not install the water drain lines. Not needed.

The manufacturer states do not use in stand up pipe drains. Usually, it's because the pipe is narrow and if the trap gets filled with lint the water draining from your washer will, in fact overflow. I use them in my stand up pipe (in the wall) but I check the trap before each wash to make sure that its not clogged with lint. I have had a couple of overflows, luckily I was near by my washer and stopped it before there was a real mess. The overflows happened as a result of not checking the lint trap previous to doing the wash. I have to use them otherwise there will be more damage to my plumbing, which will be so much more expensive.

Yes, I'm sure that would work well. They are pretty dense pads so they might not flow a large volume of water through them easily. I tried to run all of my water through them in my sump and it backed up the flow.

No they are flex hoses. Also I do not recommend buying them. I bought two and both of the drains do not move up and down. Also, It's impossible to adjust the flow exactly how you want it. The levers are stiff and difficult to make small adjustments. I did post a review on this faucet.

I think it would probably work. They work with a diaphram so I don't think it would be a problem. You could also use a backflow preventer fitting to make sure you didn't get drain back. It would be worth a try I think.

Yes you can use the leak frog. I have not had any leakage since I got my frog so I have to test it every once in a while. Very little water will set it off. I keep them under sinks and the hot water heater. They work great and the sound will wake you up. I recommend them.

The ones I got were brass and had renewable (you could take them apart) ends. Inevitably, you'll get a hole somewhere. If it's close to the end, open the fitting (takes a large hex wrench or a big screwdriver inside, and a grabber-type tool for the outside), remove the stub, clip off the leaky end and remake. I will say that BOTH the 25 and 50 foot models, despite being inside all but a couple inch slot (they're deck mounted on a boat) in the 4" pipe they're stored in, developed multiple pinhole leaks in a couple of years along the exposed portion. So, these hoses aren't very UV robust. Keep them in the shade. Also resist the temptation to just let go of them when you've finished stretching it. They stow very neatly, if you'll just take a moment to restore the curl, even if you don't have some sort of dedicated storage device for it. Otherwise you'll have a major tangle, and an easy time of developing a kink (no water!) the next time.
