I’m a 44 year old single mom, and it’s videos like this that allow me to not have to depend on anyone else to help me all the time. Thanks so much!
Glad they help! 😃
1:34 minutes in and already SO GRATEFUL for your disclaimer that "universal" is not universal. I've been beating myself up for 3 days over this. Thank you!
I like how you keep it real, because if we’re being honest most of our houses look just like this one or worse. Keep up the good work 👌🏻
So… to remove the initial metal clip that you described as “probably the hardest part” that you encountered just after removing the sprayer from the hose, try dental floss sticks. I slid 3 individual pieces of floss under the clip, then pulled them all together as 1, & pulled. The clip came right off and hung in the floss as not to go flying. Worked like a charm!:]
Mine just snapped 6 pieces of floss together like they were nothing. :(
I want to have your babies 😂😂😂 I've been cussing for 20 minutes trying to get it off.
I’ve never been a handy guy, but now that I have a family and a home of our own I’m learning how to do all the basics on RUclips. I got this done in 10 min, first time I ever tried it. Thank you for keeping it simple and helping folks like me out!
So happy to hear it helped, Patrick!
Thank you good sir. This was exactly what I needed to fix my sink sprayer. One year later and you are still educating people in a nice video.
Thank you! Your video was a huge help. I was at a loss until you showed how to get that clip off around 4:30 min.
That sink is hideous?!? I effin love it!!!! The sink itself is gorgeous!!! Don’t get rid of it.
So satisfying to watch. This might be a "little and easy" job for you! For me would take a day, I'd be wearing bandaids, cussing, having sprayed myself in the face, and needing a nice glass of wine or three! hahahaa
Thanks for the video it looks easy enough now i could order the nozzle to do it!
@The Fixer - THANK YOU SOOO SOOO MUCH!! You were the ONLY person on here who was straight up and to the point, with no BS and I was able to easily follow along with your guidance and fix my sink/sprayer problem by the time your life-saving video was done!! You have no idea how much I appreciate you man!! Many thanks again!! 🎉🎉
Thank you so much for doing this video. I had never replaced and sprayer before and I totally didn't know that the sprayer nozzle screws apart! That made the difference in finishing the job.
What a great video! exactly what I was looking for! Thank you!
The caulk around the top sink fixture is to keep water sprayed on your sink from seeping down into your cabinet underneath.
So glad someone said this
Not having that plumbers putty actually CAN be the source of a leak
Bought a Moen brand sink sprayer and it comes with a foam gasket at the bottom. Look for a brand that includes something like this.
Thanks for the help! Good video. Just a heads up though, at 3:12 where you were wondering why they caulked the sprayer base, it’s plumber’s putty so that the base can stick to the sink. Otherwise the base would just move freely every time you move the sprayer
Thanks to you I did this by myself!! I’m 76 single woman!! Yahoo! Just wish I would’ve seen the dental floss trick! I got it done anyway!!
Easy peasy. Much easier seeing it done.
I had spent months trying to get this to go on. Thanks to you, I was able to do it this morning!!!
Thank you. I learn by watching not reading. I was intimidated by the process but with your video I ended up replacing it in 10 minutes. So happy and proud of myself. Thanks!!! 😀
Super helpful video! We didn’t know about the little clip. Thanks for taking the time to make this video.
Just had an issue with a leaky hose on my sprayer and it came apart. Watched the video, looked at the sprayer and hose, found that the clip holding the hose in came off. Put the hose back in per the video, put the sprayer back on, no more massive leak. 10/10, following to make sure I can find your channel later.
Saved my day of struggling with this...thanks!
Thank you! I was so scared to messup, but you made it easy. My new si k sprayer works!
Thank you! Really helpful! got my new sprayer hooked up and works great!
Thank you! You were the first video I saw that actually explained how to remove the c clip.
Only person out of 4 videos that showed me I was missing a washer out of the old one and that's why it leaked on my first attempt! Love the realistic style and your attention to detail. Thanks.
The instructions don't say use washer on mine. Of course I also couldn't get the hose through. I ended up using all old pieces with the exception of the sprayer itself
A metal fork worked really well for me in safely getting the retention clip off. Just bend one prong on the end of the fork a few millimeters to match the distance between the ends of the retention clip. This allows you to push on both ends of the retaining clip at the same time with the bent prong and the one next to it. The clip should slide right off and you don't need to put your fingers in harms way.
I really appreciate you!! Just followed you step by step and was able to change out my faucet head!!!
Thank you I was so confused with my installation until I saw this video you made it perfectly simple and easy thank you
This video was very helpful for me, I have that same universal faucet sprayer and luckily I had no issues with it fitting.
Thank you! I couldn’t figure out why I couldn’t see the clip on my old sprayer, because it was small like yours and the one I bought was bigger, so thank you! 😊
Thank you and I love you!
Merry Christmas!!!🎄👍
Thank you. Not all heroes wear capes
Thank you. Quick and to the point. Off to Lowes.
Can’t wait for the kitchen renovations!
😁 Me too! Hate the sink/counter/cabinets... all of it really. Thanks for checking out the video, Sara!
Thanks!! Like you said, LAST PART figuring out the little wire to fit was the hardest part! Without that little piece it all fall apart.
worked perfectly thanks so much king
This helped me replace my broken hose nozzle, thanks for making this!
Helped me a ton. Thank you. Easy fix, but I would never have found that little metal clip by myself. That tip saved the day for me.
Glad to hear that it helped! 😃
Thank you so much! This video was very helpful. When I purchased the sink sprayer online I thought I was getting the hose with it but instead I only received the nozzle. It's a good thing that 1. I didn't need to replace the hose and 2. I saw this video! I replaced the nozzle in about 20 minutes. The hardest thing was taking the clip off the old sprayer. Everything else was easy thanks to your video. Thanks again!!!
Happy to help!
Thanks for this video. Hubby was growing increasingly frustrated that this universal replacement was not fitting no matter how much foul mouth lubrication he gave it! 😅 Off to the store to hopefully get the right one. 👍
This video saved me from ruining my hose. Thank you SO much.
Don't shame the man for that nasty sink! He's trying to help you. Great video
thanks for this video this was so helpful with the exact same issue I had.
Also, another good reason to buy good brands of faucets is that they will often send you replacement parts for free. Moen sent me a free hose sprayer as well as free cartilages.
Definitely valuable information. It is the little things that we do not repair, for lack of knowledge, that eventually turn into big things!!!! Oh, who found the leak, you or Mrs. Fixer?!?!? 🤨 Thanks for sharing. Stay safe.
Hey! I noticed the leak one night while getting something under the sink. I actually had an extra dog water bowl under there that caught all of the water. It was filled to the brim and the water was gross. 🤢. So glad I found it so I could fix this. Thanks for checking out the video, I hope it helps you out if you need it one of these days!!
At the end you should had said I decided to keep the sink, 🤣
Thanks for the video
Yall I followed his instructions and I did it!!!! I replaced my broken spray!!! I feel so proud!!! Thank you kind sir!!!
Awesome!!
Thank you. You just saved this old lady some money. I did it myself.
Thanks, man. I thought I was doing something wrong- nope, just a different brand. I made it work by recycling an extra washer from the old one. Harder to tighten, but no leak. Thanks for this!
Would’ve never found that tiny clip on the old nozzle attachment. Thanks!
Great video brother thanks.
This video really helps a lot. Thank you!
Great to hear! Thanks for watching!
Great video. Fixed mine in no time
Great video man it made it an easy fix. Thanks.
Thank you for the help
When you are watching Mr. Fixer and don't even have spray nozzle on your sink because it's not even a thing in your country, but it should be.
Any relation to Amy, the senator from Minnesota?
@@lesliecas2695 Nope, I am from Croatia and according to Google she originates from Slovenia.
I love it! 😁😁👍👍 Thank you, Kristina!
Thanks for this video 👍
Thanks man this is great!!
Thanks for going to the trouble to make this. + the humor!
I took a chance and bought a universal one and the washers fit quite snug. And used the previously c-hook because the new one wouldn’t fit. Thank you for this!!!
Thank you! I also enjoyed the humor 😆
Thank you so much. I was able to replace my sprayer easily 😊
Awesome to hear! Happy to help, Nina!
Your video helped a lot. I ended up having to connect the end of my old sprayer to my new spray nozzle to get it to work properly.
Brilliant! Thanks!
Nice vid-- Problem for me is I dont know the brand on my sink. When I needed the spay head changed last time the plumber did messy job didnt hold up. So I myself tried 2 or 3 different white plastic heads but the sprayer now sticks on and am currently soaking it white vineager and hoping I will be able to get this shower head back on or will try to replace it again.
Thank you so much!!
Thank you, helped a great deal
I literally had the EXACT SAME sprayer and didn't get a house and because off your video i did it completely by myself with no problem! Much appreciated being I'm a woman and new to fixing and replacing certain household stuff still....even though I've been on my own for years stuff like this makes my life easier thank you!!
It's good to do things yourself if yo have the time, it saves a lot of money (money saved is worth more than money earned because you do not tax of savings) and for each project you learn to do yourself, it becomes easier next time. There is spillover effects for many things.
omg it works! Thank you!
Thanks for doing this. The first thing I was going to do was CUT the old nozzle off. I was expecting some kind of pressure fitting. Saved my ass bud ! !
Dude you just saved me a damn headache.....Thank you!!!!!
Thank you!
You’re a lifesaver with this one.
Glad it helped! 😀
Thanks man, I just did like you and threw away the instructions, but I needed some professional help, I did it and it worked perfectly.
Awesome. Thanks for watching!
My style sprayer looks just like that old one there too and mine is leaking...are they defective? It's only about 10 years old...unless that's the lifespan of these things. But this showed me how to replace it as I just replaced the floor under the kitchen sink and I don't need that ruined. Thanks!
You saved the day for me!
Thanks for sharing😊😊😊
Well done 👍
I replaced my first prayer today and this video is the only thing that got me through it since I’m a visual learner! Thank you so much for posting!
Awesome!
You cannot replace prayer,,,,Sorry.😕
Thanks for sharing
Thank you so, so much! Our sprayer leaks and my husband will not touch it. Now that I CAN fix it, I have a question or problem. I have no idea what kind of sink we have. It's 27 years old. Do I just take the part to the Hardware store? Thank you! ❤
I agree, just recently purchased a "UNIVERSAL" sprayer attempting to repair my old sprayer. Turned out to be UN-UNIVERSAL. It leaked more than the original.
Thank you I was really struggling with the C clip so much until I saw how you did it.
Good job, I had a plumber here last week to replace mine and it still leaks. I wish I didn't have to turn off the water supply because I don't have shut off valves under the sink. I have a crawl space under the house and that is where the shut off valve is. What a simple fix.
thank you
Thank you
I’m so glad your doing this video. We bought our first home have to replace ours too. Thanks for sharing.
Awesome! Really hope it helps out, Marva!
The Fixer me too!!! Thanks 🙏🏽
Same,
Thanks for video, I would never say anything about your sink sir. As long as it wory that's good enough for me
thanks this video helped me out
Awesome to hear. Thanks for letting me know, Lou!
Taking rhat clip off was super easy for me. Getting it back on though, now that was a pain the ass. Took me a bit to get it.
Wanted to share i had the same problem with the exact same old faucet sprayer. And i unintentionally bought the same replacement. In my case it was just the retaining clip that failed. So i replaced the base and gun but only needed to replace the clip on the connector piece after i saw the new one wouldn't fit. Only the retaining clip, 12$ at lowes and 30 minutes and im solid. Thank you sir, please fix or GFI that shady outlet under your sink especially after a leaky sink. God bless
Thank you!😀
Thanks for watching! 😃
Do you have a video on replacing that hose and how to do so
thanks for the info......
Thanks for your valuable tutorial 😊
Thanks for watching! Hope it helped out!!
@@TheFixerHomeRepair 🙏
I noticed the flow of my new nozzle is a little slower after installing. What could be some reasons for that? I also want to note that the brand I purchased was a really cheap one. It only came with the newer silver c clip (I think that’s what it’s called?) and there were no other washers like the two black ones in your video. There weren’t any one my old nozzle that I took off either.
Thank you 😊
Hope it helps! Thanks for watching!
I replaced two speakers just like this one. One was at my mother's house. The other was for my house.
At my mother's house my sister cut the hose and just let the water run into the sink. So, I ended up having to replace the hose. Of course it was a simple connection under the sink, so I had to buy an adapter kit and watch several videos like this one to figure out how to attach it. Once I did that hooking up the sprayer was actually easy.
At my house this was like my 2nd or 3rd time replacing it. I replaced it a couple times with one of those cheap black spayers. The handle kept breaking. So this time I decided on one that seemed like the one I bought for my mother. The hole was too small just like this one. The hose wouldn't go all the way through. Also, it was like the gaskets and washers were built in. The only thing it came with was that silver clip. After an hour of filing and still not being able to get the hose not through enough, because it stopped just above where that clip goes on, I ended up using all the parts from the old sprayer. I used the piece that screws on, the new clip, and both black plastic washers from the old sprayer. I never could get the new piece to work matter how much bigger I made the hole. Now I almost wish all I did was screw the old sprayer off and screw the new one on.
By the way what i bought was the standard universal kits at Lowes and Home Depot. I think mine was a 10330
Thanks!
Hey Mike! Thank YOU!
