Is the 2.2 GPM so high a flow rate that it causes spraying all over kitchen out of sink? Would you prefer 2.2 or 1.8GPM?

2.2... the flow is perfect. I would not recommend the 1.8.. only the 2.2. It is just right. Never had a better faucet.

I can tell you it is double the 2.5 GPM of US limits. I timed it with a bucket. It is great!

I'm not sure, however, I get phenomenal results spraying at 25 cfm with very little product used. The gun don't seem to like the higher pressure as my previous spray gun did.

Not sure GPM but it should be fine to run water through a garden hose with no issues.

You know Jason, I am not sure. I bought this because it was the replica update of what I had. I hear it pump as soon as, say 2-3gal. When I fill my sink with my 2 gal wet vac it kicks in. I use this for my laundry. Hope this helps ( not a plumber :)

Your flow rate is too high, it is going to leak if your flow rate is too much

In the product manual, it says, "There is a water-saving flow restrictor which restricts the flow to a maximum of 2.5 gallons per minute (gpm)."

Yes, provided your sink is a normal sized domestic sink and not a commercial trough. We have a large double bowl sink and it is more than adequate especially when on spray. This is a wonderful faucet with incredibly accurate flow control that offers the largest, most comfortable span from "no-flow" to "Full pressure flow". This faucet will easily adjust down to a trickle. Wonderful faucet.

I'm assuming you've got one on the pump since 2hp could blow most garden type hoses. You shouldn't exceed 30psi on the line and the flow should be fine. If the pressure is unregulated, who knows what it will do to your system.

Not that I know of. I think it's pure physics since all of these style faucets with the pull out nozzles have smaller diameter hoses in them. You could do a simple test and check the actual water flow in GPM and compare that to the mfg rated flow. I'm happy with the flow rate and we are on a deep well with pressure much lower than city water.

I can't imagine why. Perhaps it is an expected lower water flow? The way this is designed provides greater aeration so the effect is to enhance the apparent water volume for the same gpm flow. I read some other critiques of the unit which suggest there is random fluctuations in pressure or flow. I think this may have more to do with line sizing (apartment situations or perhaps galvanized water supply piping?) We upgraded our upstairs master bath shower from an old Delta in a 2 story single family residence with 1/2" copper supply lines and our experience was a substantial increase in both water pressure and flow rate. We have had no problems with variation in pressure or operation, couldn't be happier. I can't imagine why. Perhaps it is an expected lower water flow?

I'd say needle-like spray. The water splashes all around the sink. I never use it therefore, although my husband likes this mode better.

I have no idea which flow rate I have. I love my faucet though. I find that the hand held spray nozzle has more power. Exceptional value.

2.2 GPM with both on. with one on I would speculate it is more than 1.1 as it increases the water output of the single device. I would guess maybe between 1.4 and 1.7 with just 1 on.

I have the 1500 and the actual flow rate is 360 gal per hour if the info on the box is correct. I notice that as the filters get dirtier the rate slows down a little

It's about 2 inches. You should be ok if you don't run the spray too hard. If the faucet flow is faster than the device can filter the water will back up and overflow.

I suppose it depends on just how huge the sink is, but, in my experience yes. One thing I have noticed is that the water flow is much stronger when triggered by the sensor than if you manually turn the water on with the handle on the side. I find this not a major problem, it's just really odd. I'd prefer an equal spray pressure.
