Installation guidelines for OVE freestanding faucet series (Model: Athena) v02

[@patrickmckowen2999]

I am getting ready to plumb this now and I saw this looking very difficult. I see 2 ways. FYI - I am doing this on a 2nd floor master washroom complete demo/reno. I am not a plumber and do at your own risk. 1- using pex, make sure your lines are long enough to give good up and down movement and put verticle stems at the holes about 2" long so you can pull them up and out of the connection hole. This is without screwing done the support bracket. You should be able to pull those lines up, connect and push down again ( or they will pull themselves down so have a string on them) below the floor and screw down you base bracket. 2 - Approx the same as in 1 but using breaided flex lines. Put in 1/2 thread male connections below the floor and add on some 12" long breaided female 1/2" to mail 1/2" supply lines to come up and out of the hole with make connection with some threaded male to male adapters. In both cases have some strings attached to them to pull them up should they fall below the floor. I will due the 1st meathod as I dont really trust having a flex line connection below the floor even thought I would test prior. I have more experience and tust in pex connections. I hope this helps Cheers

Those floor mounted faucets are notorious for leaking.. Or is it just the wand? Any brands that dont leak?
