Title: Replaced leaking kitchen faucet
Post by: AdventureSofie on February 21, 2025, 01:23:51 pm
Replaced the leaking kitchen faucet and the filtered water faucet next to it.  The big faucet was a PITA because there wasn't enough flat area underneath for the clamping washer.  Foretravel didn't leave much space there.  I had to dremel out some of the the sink flange and some of the wood support to make a reasonable flat area large enough for the washer. Big dust mess. Then the faucet installed normally.  Still needed some adapters (3/8" flare male to 1/2" NPT male) to connect to the PEX lines.  My better half likes the flow rate and pull out better than the old faucet.  The little water faucet was a drop in replacement.

MOEN Kaden 87966SRS Single-Handle Pull-Down Sprayer Kitchen Faucet Stainless.  About 15" high.  eBay.

While doing the job I removed the pullout tray under the sink a couple of times and damaged the slide.  Now we have new slides and the tray moves good again.

Good job. My kitchen faucet leaks and I've been putting off replacing it for all the above reasons.
