Kink-Resistant Nylon Hose: Features a quiet, flexible nylon spray hose that pulls out smoothly and resists twisting during extended reach tasks.
Water-Saving Flow Rate: Operates at an efficient 1.5 GPM flow rate, increasing water-savings by 30 percent over standard kitchen faucets.

Low-Profile Spout Design: Stands at an 11 1/8 inch total height with a 9 7/8 inch spout height, making it ideal for spaces with upper cabinets near the sink.
Understanding the 160 Degree Swivel and Pull-Out Mechanism
Think of the 160 degree spout swivel like the steering mechanism of a compact car, offering precise maneuverability within a controlled radius so you never overshoot your target. Combined with the kink-resistant nylon spray hose, this setup allows water to reach every corner of your basin smoothly and quietly. The internal engineering ensures that transitioning between the standard aerated stream and the dual-spray function feels fluid, minimizing hose friction and reducing wear on the internal brass waterways over years of daily kitchen tasks.
Installation Guide
Ensure your countertop has a single pre-drilled hole measuring 1 3/8 inches in diameter before beginning deck mount installation.
Connect the flexible supply lines to your household water valves securely, taking care not to overtighten fittings against the brass body.
Guide the nylon spray hose carefully through the spout, ensuring the weight attaches smoothly beneath the sink without catching on plumbing lines.
Flush the water lines briefly through the aerator after installation to clear out any residual debris before normal daily use.
Care & Maintenance
Routine Cleaning: Wipe down the satin dark steel surface daily with a soft, damp microfiber cloth to prevent water spots.
Mild Soap Solution: Use mild dish soap and warm water for occasional deep cleaning of the brass exterior.
Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Never use abrasive scouring pads, steel wool, or bleach-based cleaners that can damage the finish.
Dry After Use: Pat the faucet dry with a soft towel after heavy kitchen tasks to maintain its pristine luster.
Aerator Maintenance: Unscrew the spray face periodically to clear out any mineral buildup and maintain optimal 1.5 GPM water flow.
