Key Features
Solid Brass Construction Ensures long-term durability and structural integrity for daily household use.
Goose Neck Spout Offers generous clearance above the basin for comfortable hand washing and daily routines.
Dual Lever Handles Allow precise adjustment of water temperature and volume with a simple turn.
Widespread Configuration Designed for three-hole installations to create a custom, professional look on your vanity.
1.2 GPM Flow Rate Delivers an efficient stream that conserves water while maintaining steady pressure.
Understanding Ceramic Disc Cartridge Technology
The heart of this faucet is its ceramic disc cartridge, a mechanism designed to replace traditional rubber washers that wear out over time. Think of it like a pair of exceptionally hard, highly polished ceramic plates that slide past one another to control water flow. When you turn the lever, the plates align to let water through or seal tightly against each other to stop it completely. Because ceramic is nearly as hard as diamond, it resists mineral buildup and friction, ensuring your handles maintain their smooth feel and leak-free performance for years without requiring replacement parts.
Installation Guide
Turn off the main water supply under the sink before beginning any installation work.
Mount the spout and two lever handles securely into your three-hole sink or countertop deck following standard plumbing practices.
Connect the flexible supply lines to your household water shut-off valves and tighten carefully without over-torquing.
Test the system by turning the water back on slowly, checking all connections for leaks while operating both handles.
Care & Maintenance
Regular Cleaning Wipe the faucet surface weekly with a soft, damp cloth to remove water spots and soap residue.
Gentle Soap Use mild dish soap and warm water for routine cleaning; avoid harsh chemical detergents.
Finish Protection Never use abrasive scouring pads, steel wool, or bleach-based cleaners on the polished finish.
Aerator Maintenance Unscrew the spout tip periodically to clean out any mineral deposits or debris that might restrict water flow.
Dry After Use Buff the metal dry with a soft microfiber towel after heavy use to maintain its brilliant shine.
