Default Faucet uprade

We finally changed the old two handle faucets for the convenience of single handle models. We picked both up at Lowes. The kitchen unit has a satin nickel finish with a pull out sprayer head. We replace the old sprayer with a nickel finished soap dispenser. We went with a "prep sink" model as they are typically smaller in scale yet have the height the Admiral wanted.

We stayed with chrome in the head to match everything else. It was not a single hole unit so I had to drill a couple of hole to make it work.

The boat is plumbed with 1/2 inch PEX. Lowes carries the push on fittings so the work was very simple. The difficult part was getting under the kitchen sink, it was a very tight fit.

The Admiral is ecstatic.Name:  -2.jpg

I like the idea of a single lever. My faucet is mounted sidewise, making it ackward to reach the hot lever.

If your getting motor oil in your sinks, it sounds like a blow faucet gasket, do a compression test before taken the knobs off........
