How To Install A Faucet
So, you’ve selected or purchased the perfect faucet for your home… now what do you do?
Do you plan to install the faucet yourself, or would you rather rely upon the services of a professional plumber?
For expert faucet installation, you should contact a licensed professional plumbing contractor in your area.
However, if you’re ready and eager to install your own faucet, Delta offers these helpful hints. If you have not done this before, we suggest that you read the general installation tips below all the way through before beginning. For instructions on installing your specific faucet, please follow the maintenance and installation instructions that were provided with your faucet.
Items You’ll Need:
- Basin wrench
- Adjustable wrench
- Silicone sealant — Plumber’s Putty is not generally recommended
- Teflon® tape
- Channel locks
- Screwdriver (Phillips and slotted)
- Flashlight
Other Tools That May Come In Handy:
- Tube cutter
- Sandpaper (fine grade)
- Tape measure
Step 1: Position The Faucet
- Begin installing your faucet by placing the gasket and faucet in position on the sink. (Diagram A)
- From under the sink, thread the plastic mounting nuts onto the faucet shanks. Be sure the large side of each plastic mounting nut is up. (Diagram B)
- From the top of the sink, check the faucet and gasket position. (Diagram C)
- From under the sink tighten the mounting nuts, making certain not to over-tighten which could damage the nuts and make them difficult to remove in the future. (Diagram D)
Step 2: Attach the Water Supply Tubes
- Water is typically supplied to the faucet through water-supply tubes.
- Wrap the threads of the water-supply valve with Teflon tape. Although most plumbers use only Teflon tape, some plumbing supply manufacturers also recommend using plumber’s putty. (Diagram A)
- Thread the water supply nut onto the shut-off valve. Tighten the nut with a wrench. (Diagram B)
- Wrap the threads on the faucet shank with Teflon tape, and then thread the water supply nut onto the faucet shank. (Diagram C)
- Tighten the nut with a basin wrench. (Diagram D)
Step 3: Connect The Faucet Lift Rod
- From the top of the sink, insert the lift-rod into the faucet. (Diagram A)
- From under the sink, make sure the pivot-rod is in the down position. Insert the lift-rod into the lift-rod strap. Tighten the screw.
- From the top of the sink, make sure the lift-rod opens and closes the drain plug as desired. (Diagram B)
- Make any needed adjustments by loosening the lift-rod strap screw and repositioning the lift-rod.
- If you need to connect the lift-rod strap to the pivot rod, slide one end of the spring clip onto the pivot-rod.
- Make sure that both the pivot-rod and the lift-rod are in the down position. Insert the pivot-rod in the closest hole in the lift-rod strap.
- Slide the other end of the pivot-rod. Make sure the lift-rod opens and closes the drain plug as desired.
- Make minor adjustments by loosening the lift-rod strap screw and repositioning the lift-rod. (Diagram C)
- Make major adjustments by removing the spring clip and moving the pivot-rod to a different hole in the lift-rod strap.
Step 4: Flush The Faucet
- Anytime you work on plumbing, filings, chips, and other debris can fall into the plumbing pipes.
- This debris can damage the sealing surfaces inside the faucet and cause leaks.
- Remove the aerator and black sealing gasket above it.
- Before turning on the water supply, make sure the faucet handles are open (on position) in order to remove the debris without causing damage. (Diagram A)
- Open both water supply valves under the sink. (Diagram B)
- Allow the water to run for 15 seconds. (Diagram C)
- Close the faucet handles (turn off).
- Make sure any debris is cleaned from the aerator screen. (Diagram D)
- Replace the aerator. (Diagram E)

** Based on an average pump run time of 5 minutes per hour for one year. S3033 uses 4 amps @ 10’. The estimated industry average is 9.5 amps. Average electric cost per kilowatt-hour is $.012.
It's all about the float switch…Two floats are better than one!
Until now there have been three varieties of float switches: vertical, tethered and pressure. Unfortunately, all three of these switches are subject to various forms of failure. Now a float has been created with redundant switches to eliminate these problems.
The PHCC Dual Float has, not one, but two floats mounted within a protective cage. Should one float fail to operate, the second float is available and ready to activate the pump. The protective cage prevents debris or other wires from interfering with movement of the floats. The result…the most reliable float switch in the industry! |

No AC sump pump will work when the power is out. For added protection and peace of mind, install a battery backup sump pump system, as well as a primary AC sump pump. The PHCC Pro Series backup sump pumps have unique monitoring system that sound an alarm when maintenance is needed, or when a problem arises. After all, a backup sump pump system with a dead battery, loose cables, or a clogged pump is like having no backup at all. The PHCC Pro Series backup sump pumps monitor all these functions and remind the homeowner when attention is needed.
Click a model above for additional information

- Excessive inflow of water
All PHCC Pro Series backup sump pumps offer:
