Your new Design House faucet will give you years of trouble free performance. Thank you for

choosing our product for your home. Please read all of these instructions carefully before

installing your new faucet.

Helpful tools to install this faucet:

IMPORTANT POINTS

When installing your new faucet, hand tighten the connector nuts, then use one wrench to

anchor the fitting and a second wrench to tighten the nut one additional turn. Connections that

are too tight will reduce the integrity of the system.

Wrap threaded connections (except aerator thread in spout or where o-ring or rubber sealant

are present) with Teflon tape available from your local hardware or plumbing supply store.

Always wrap in a clockwise direction.

SAFETY TIPS

ALWAYS protect your eyes with safety glasses.

CONSUMER PROTECTION WARNING

Under the Safe Drinking Water Act, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency restricts the

amount of lead used in brass and solder. Your new faucet is made in strict compliance with

all government standards. The materials used in the manufacture of this faucet are of industry

standard quality and are similar to other plumbing products having brass fittings.

To reduce the amount of lead in your drinking water, allow the water to run for a moment before

filling your glass and remember to always use cold water for drinking purposes.

Your new Design House faucet is designed to give you years of trouble free performance. Keep it looking

new by cleaning it periodically with a soft cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners, steel wool and harsh chemicals

that will dull the finish and void your warranty

Brass finishes are polished, then protected with a lacquer coating to help prevent tarnishing. Clean these

surfaces only with a damp, soft cloth.
