Installation
● Disassemble the faucet.
Unscrew the faucet to remove it. Remove the faucet’s nuts and other parts. Remove the pop-up drain. If the taps and parts are unnecessary, cut the nuts and bolts with a rotary or oscillating tool. Sometimes a faucet is stubborn to remove due to limescale, mould, or rust. This helps remove unnecessary features.
● Silicone the faucet.
Good tap brands have fail-safes to prevent water from collecting between the faucet and sink. Silicone caulking around the tap is a precaution. The sticky seal will also help you install your faucet.
● Improve supply lines.
One wrong move during tap installation can lead to a leaking tap. This is no longer a problem with tap supply lines. If your supply line looks old, upgrade it to save yourself the trouble later.
Measuring the supply lines is essential. First, measure the supply lines’ underside. Then, if you need more supply lines, you can buy extensions.
● Check water tap valves.
Tighten loose water tap valves to prevent leaks. Too much tightening will leave the shutoff valve open.
● Aerator out.
Last, remove the tap’s aerator. This is because plumbing work can loosen waste and minerals. When you turn on the water supply, they’ll run out with the water, and the aerator will have trapped them, causing a clogged tap.
● Leak-check.
Check for leaks around the tap and under the sink after turning on the water. Check for leaks after installing your kitchen sink or bathroom tap and ensuring everything works.
