Troubleshooting
Low water pressure
Check that the water supply valves are fully open. Ensure the aerator and spout nozzle are clean and free from debris. Verify that the connected water filter (if used) is not clogged.
Faucet leaks
Ensure all connections are tightened securely. Check the O-rings and seals for any damage or wear and replace if necessary. If the leak persists, contact a professional plumber.
Pull-out spout is stiff or difficult to retract
Check the hose for kinks or obstructions. Ensure there is enough slack in the hose behind the sink. Clean any visible debris around the spout base.
Water filter connection is leaking
Confirm the 1/4-inch tubing is correctly seated in the quick connector. Ensure the tubing is not damaged. Re-seat the tubing firmly or replace the connector if damaged.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: This faucet requires a standard 3/8-inch connection for water supply lines. Ensure the mounting area can accommodate a floor-standing faucet. For the integrated water filter connection, a 1/4-inch quick connector is provided, ready for your compatible drinking water filter system. Professional installation is recommended to ensure proper connections and prevent leaks.
Compatibility: The faucet is designed with standard plumbing dimensions: 3/8-inch for water inlet connections and a 1/4-inch quick connector for water filter systems. It is compatible with most standard under-sink water filters that utilize a 1/4-inch quick connection.
Care: To maintain the gold finish, clean the faucet regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners, harsh chemicals, or scouring pads, as these can scratch or damage the finish. For hard water spots, a mild solution of vinegar and water can be used, followed by thorough rinsing and drying.
