How difficult was this to install - is it a DIY install, or do you need a plumber? Also - does it come with the hardware needed to install. Thank yo

The unit was not difficult to install new. I was replacing on old unit, so I had to relocate the drain pipe & install a p-trap to meet code. Everything is included in the package for installation, but it will need an electrical outlet right next to a drain in the wall for proper installation.

I actually had it installed by people very familiar with plumbing. They tell me if you are "somewhat knowledgable" about plumbing it should not be difficult. It does come with the hardware needed to install it. Good luck!

If Elkay EZS8L ADA Compliant Barrier Free Water drinking fountain is a replacement, you probably won't need any hardware. If being installed in a new location you will have to purchase material for drain and water supply.

It wasn't difficult at all. This water fountain had to be put a little lower then the existing one. So I did have to buy material for the existing water pipe, wasn't difficult. I am far from being a plumber but I install

Our's came with it and everything needed for the install. I used plumber's putty and it leaked when installed.Took it out and reinstalled with silicone, which worked perfectly. FYI... if you over tighten the clamp that holds it in, it willstrip over it's seat on the drain. The unit is quiet and works well

I honestly don't know, we installed it ourselves and it only took about an hour. My dad was a plumber and I learned from him and my hubby is a whiz at the electrical side of it. Honestly if I had to hire a plumber and electrician to do the job I would not have gotten the unit. I know someone who is having one installed in a new home and was quoted $800!

I did mine almost by myself in less than an hour. I called my contact guy once to help with a question. It's easy if you have a faucet that's not too modern. I didn't want my unit on the kitchen sink so I connected it to a little wet bar sink. It was perfect. You could use a utility room sink if it is preferable. It needs a sink because the water that doesn't process immediately goes thru the unit on the faucet & drains on the side of the faucet. I had mine up and running in less than an hour with no plumbing issues.

I had a plumber install mine into a new bathroom. As far as I know it came with everything. He had never installed one before & he said it was easy to install. He got it done quickly.

First, it's heavy. I'm a big guy and could carry it most people would need help. I had pipes already from a prior softener so I just patched into those with basic plumbing skills. Most advise you just tie into the hot water only. A plumber should be able to install for $200. You need an electrical outlet. If you have a prior hookup and know how to sweat a pipe it's easy otherwise contact a plumber

Hi Troy, I have this faucet. Its pretty straightforward. I dont remember if it came with an installation manual. Do you have specific question I can help you with?

I had a handyman install it not a big job, if you install just follow instructions not hard, works great

I installed this myself, and I consider myself an 'experienced' amateur. That said, the instructions are too basic. Mine leaked when I followed the instructions. So, I removed it, applied pipe thread tape to the outlet pipe in the wall, and then reinstalled it. You will need a wrench - hand-tightening (for me anyway) wasn't enough. Wrap the fixture in cloth before wrenching it tight.

We had the same problem. My husband modified the frame. He cut off the leg that was in the way, welded on an angle and bolted it onto the wall directly.I have to admit it was a little tricky but it was worth it. We strongly advise to consult a plumber who knows what he is doing if you don't have a a husband like me : )The easiness of cleaning and the added space due to installing this system is making this bathroom a showcase. Good luck

I had it installed by the granite installers and they had to purchase a kit to install it. Not sure if that was because of the granite or lack of hardware. I had 3 cm granite installed. Ps I love the sink!

Okay..I just checked out my review and remembered the manual (if not updated) was not that straightforward.As long as you can understand the steps I wrote in my review, I think you can install yourself. ( I am not a professional neither...)Since the installation (more than a year ago), I feel it's been a great addition to our house.

I had my handyman install it. I watched - it looked very easy and only took a few minutes. Sorry I can't add more.
