Roger you made it look so easy to replace a kitchen faucet in a way that anyone can replace a kitchen faucet. Awesome job my man.
He didn’t forge any of the parts, how am I supposed to know what to anneal? Not as informative as I was hoping.
I've commented on your videos over the years... i'm 29 and used to be one of the young guns when i started at 20-21 years old.... really cool to see an older, successful company owner and content creator getting down and dirty showing how its done. Much respect as always Roger! much love from New Jersey!
I like that you took off the aerator before running the faucet to clear it out. I do that everytime I shut off the water, the very rare time I forget I notice a decrease in flow and I'm taking the aerator off and now having to clean it.
As an installer, I always make sure I leave any installation tools that are special like the one you used and many also come with special keys to remove and install the aerator.
Today I installed the exact faucet Roger uninstalled in this video. It was easy to install. The hard part was uninstalling the old 20 year old corroded faucet. The screws were stripped, I had to saw the old faucet out. But in the end it all worked out.
That’s awesome! How are you liking it so far?
@@RogerWakefield lol wasn't for me, it was for a customer. But they l seemed to like it. Came with a matching soap dispenser
oh 😅 well the matching soap dispenser is a plus!
In all my houses I moved in, the first thing I did was swapping the clunky rigid faucets for just a faucet like this. So much better.
Why do you like them better? I’m loving mine so far as well.
I'm looking for single handle pull down faucet where the handle can be oriented to the center (front). Suggestions?
I do so many KS faucets all they do is fill my recycle pile, and it's considerable. That being the case my favorite removal tool for faucets of all varieties is a big ass shear to clip the lines and sometimes, rarely but sometimes my corded sawzall to saw the main body of the faucet right at the sink, using some sheet metal to protect the sheet. Sometimes they just won't come apart using wrenches, and I've even had to cut open some flue pipe for the sheet metal to protect the sink. I've had to saw off so many faucets it's not even funny, and that's something no homeowner should do unless they plan to ruin the underlying sink. Faucets are also where the basin wrench comes in really handy. If you're installing a new Sink/Faucet combo lav or kitchen or bar be sure to mount the faucet and strainer parts before setting the sink if possible.
❤love Canada Merci 😮😊
Roger, can you explain about the air gap breaker for the dishwasher? I know they are code in some areas. I removed mine and have never had issues but..i am not sure exactly what it does.
Way easier than the one i replaced recently. It was all put in with copper hard-line, and the valves were corroded and wouldn't turn off so i had to turn it off at the main valve in the garage. Also i'm a big guy, 235 pounds. And this was all tucked up under one of the smallest cabinet spaces i've ever seen. So i'm scrunched up under there like a pretzel banging my elbows into everything, arms cramping up, trying to unscrew these fittings, water dripping right on my forehead, and it's so tight you can hardly even get your tools onto the fittings to even turn them. It was a fight every step of the way. Then just when i thought the job was done, I went to turn the water back on at the main valve in the garage, the damn valve broke. The valve gate broke off of the stem and fell down into the valve body sticking it in the Closed position. Well, that's just fantastic. One of those jobs that just ruin your whole day. Because it's supposed to be easy, but it ends up fighting you every step of the way turning a one hour job into a four hour job, while sending you into a new level of pissed off you didn't even know was possible. Blood pressure getting so high, you can almost feel yourself getting ready to have a stroke over a simple faucet replacement. LOL!!!
But i guess we all have days like that sometimes. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Nice.
Ive replaced many faucets over the years in different houses. In my daughters condo, she has crappy faucets from the 90s. But they arent allowed to be replaced except by a professional plumber, which she cant afford. When the plumber is going to do the exact same thing I will, but I will be free. She has shuts offs at her taps to. Guess they need to cover their ass.
I literally just installed a Moem with the pullout handle.
What are your thoughts about it
Where does the washer go
How much would 1 cost just wondering I wanna replace our parents
I too enjoy laying pipe
Rodger, didn't you just install that price pfister faucet last year? I mean it's probably at its life expectancy being a pfister 😂
🤣 it was about two years ago and there’s nothing wrong with it, I love my Pfister. I was given this new faucet and wanted to try it out. So far I’m loving it
Don't buy this NEW style Faucet!......ITS COMPLETE GARBAGE....take it from a Plumber !!!!
I’m a plumber…and I like it
Actually I love it…
