process, you may proceed with installing the system.
Faucet Installation
Locate the installation point for the faucet; you will need a hole at least 1/2" in diameter for the RO
faucet shank. If the sink has a sprayer the RO faucet may be installed in the hole used for the sprayer,
simply disconnect the sprayer and plug the sprayer connection. If the sprayer hole is not an option you
will need to drill a hole. To drill a hole, determine where it will be located before starting. You will need a
2" flat surface no more than 2" thick. Ensure the chosen location will not interfere with anything below,
and position the faucet so it will empty into the sink and can swivel freely for convenience. Once you
have confirmed your faucet location, proceed with drilling the hole in your sink.
Porcelain, Enamel, or Ceramic on Metal
Be careful when drilling though porcelain, enamel or ceramic sinks, drill slowly to prevent chipping or
scratching, and be sure to wear proper safety equipment to protect yourself.
1. Mark the center of the hole with a pencil, marker or other marking device
2. Using a 1/4" masonry bit, carefully (using a slow speed and light pressure) drill a pilot hole through
the sink. If drilling through a ceramic on metal sink, stop when you reach the metal portion, switch to
a 1/4" metal cutting bit and continue.
3. Continue to enlarge the pilot hole with larger masonry bits (& metal cutting bits if applicable) until the
hole is 1/2".
4. Clean up any rough or sharp edges.
Stainless Steel or Cast Iron
Be careful when drilling stainless steel or cast iron, drill slowly to prevent scratching, and be sure to
wear proper safety equipment for protection.
1. Mark the center of the hole with a pencil, marker or other marking device
2. Using a 1/4" metal cutting bit, carefully drill a pilot hole through the sink.
