Amazing Video!!!!!! I want to thank you for making and posting this Video! I am a woman and have no plumbing knowledge. This Step by Step video really makes a difference! I was able to remove our damaged kitchen faucet and install our new Kohler faucet in about 1 hr with the help of my oldest 9 yr old son. Definitely recommend watching this video to all of those who will or are installing a kitchen faucet. If a mom of 4 kids can do it with the help of a 9 yr old boy then so can you! Thank you Dave!!!

Also, since the top gasket looks flimsy, I asked Kohler if I could use plumber's putty to better protect from water leaking into the cabinet below the sink. They advised me not to do that since it might affect the lifetime warranty. Guess I'm gonna have to invest in a leak detector.

It may be. The outlet may be on a multi-outlet line. The GFIC could be located at an outlet closer to the circuit breaker. When you have a doubt, you can use an outlet tester. I installed a water-proof outlet receptacle on mine.

I enjoyed the video as it was very clear as to the process to install the new kitchen electronic faucet. I do want to mention I watched it yesterday 8/25/2021 unfortunately Kohler apparently made a change as the hot water operates by bringing the lever forward not back. In my case since it takes several minutes to get hot water I did not realize the directions for water flow currently are opposite from your video. you may want to update. Thank you

Thank you for your feedback and noted the change you mentioned. I am curious of the change as it is the opposite way of this style of faucets in general, not only the electronic model like this one... I'll look into it further. In the meantime, I'm wondering if you could confirm the hook up wasn't switched accidentally? Just a thought. In any case, I appreciate your comment and definitely will do some research on the change noted. Thank you again and have a great day!

I have an intermittent but frequent problem where water just dribbles out of the faucet, and I hear a whining below. Valve diaphragm?. (I've had the batteries out and bypass turned on for a year.) How do you (unhook) get the hose off that clicked onto the valve (same for getting the valve off of the copper outlet tube), and can I just click the spray valve hose directly to the copper outlet tube, removing the valve box entirely from the equation?

Dave I have a question how can I take the head apart to clean it? because It's running little low on gallons per minute. I have a feeling some gunk may have built up underneath the airaider and in the supply lines. This comes after Changing a circulation pump connected to my solar panel water heater set up. I never could have imagined that would happen but it did and it seems thats only the Faucet That sustained a dramatic change where My other kitchen faucets bath possets and shower heads all seem to bounce back To normal operation and water flow per minute. So where I'm going with this; is this Kohler faucet. I also bought from Costco. in invertedly I threw away the manual and I don't know how to take apart the head of the Fossett without damaging it.

I wish I watched this prior to installation. Kohler should include a link in that damn manual. I'm a mechanical engineer and good plumber, but this extra wiring bugged me from a design standpoint. I like simplicity and this seemed like added issues. First it was hell connecting wires underneath sink, second I didn't really see all the connections, next I found no operating instructions like how that valve worked. Hopefully now I can finish it off (I was expected water to flow with handle but now I see tat simply turns on, but sensor lets it flow).

The batteries are good, the sensor is clean, and I unplugged the cables to the battery box and reconnected....no change. When I put the faucet into manual override, I can hear the on and off click that you hear when it is in automatic mode. I'm not sure if that means anything.

I am sorry too hear that you are having problems with your faucet. It sounds like you have already checked the basics. I have only time I have had anything like that happen is when either something else is too close to the sensor like a scrub brush, or if I poor boiling water in the sink and then steam triggers the sensor. But since yours is happening all the time it doesn't seem like that is the issue. Unfortunately I am not sure, maybe an issue with the sensor? Let us know if you figure it out.

Thank you for watching. The problem is probably with the electric Valve under the sink where the wires connect. Make sure that the black button for the manual override is turned all the way until it stops. If it's only turned part way it could cause this. Another thing to check is to make sure that the hoses do not have a Sharp bend in them that is blocking the water flow.

Hi, I just bought this for my kitchen, the problem is that the space between the sink and the uper cabinets is just the measure of the faucet so when I tried to install it I couldn't becouse of the gold tube (that one threaded tube) . It is any other way to install it? like to pull apart the gold tube from the faucet and put it down to up? Any recomendation will help me.

I have yet to see your situation unless it's a full-size cabinet. I would return the faucet and replace it with a shorter one. It's an excellent faucet, but...

Hey Dave thanks for the video mate. It's exactly what I was looking for. I have the exact same faucet and I bought the a similar Kohler goose neck faucet. Can you please send me link to the plumber's wrench? I need to buy one of those but not sure which dimensions I would need.

Hi! Thank you for watching and appreciate your comment! Apologies on using the wrong term in the video, it's actually the basin wrench. ours is the 3/8 to 1" size but I would suggest buying the 3/8 to 1-3/8" size because the handle extends so it is easier to work with. Please see this link for the plumber's wrench - amzn.to/2RWvDj5

Have you figured out how to lock it in sense mode so the handle only controls temperature and not switch to manual mode?
@outlet6989

That device is a powered water valve controlling the faucet's water supply. You turn the switch clockwise to turn on the sensor. Counter-Clockwise de-activates the sensor and turns the faucet into manual mode. I hope my reply helps you.

It's a common problem for the mesh filter on the solenoid to get clogged. Before connecting the inlet on the solenoid, run the water on both hot and cold for a minute to get any debris out. Will save people frustration of possibly losing flow.

Good luck with that. I got two of them installed and one of them stopped working. I changed batteries. Still doesn’t work. I had the one that isn’t working less than a year. I don’t even know it it was 6 months. I’m getting my plumber back out to see if he can see why it’s not working. If he can’t figure it out I will have to replace it and it won’t be with this brand again. It has a 5 year warranty so keep your receipts. I can’t find mine. Lesson learned !

Shouldn't that weight simply attach to that white plastic on that water line, seems to be in the right position? Interesting coupling you've got on the disposer drain pipe.
@DIYProjectsByDave
@DIYProjectsByDave 5 жыл бұрын
Thank you for watching. The weight needs to be installed on the hose a couple of inches up from the bottom of the loop the exact location May differ depending on your install. Yes the wires are hard to get too when you are under the sink. You just have to feel for the connection. The connection on the drain you saw is for our reverse osmosis system.
