Materials You’ll Need:

• New kitchen faucet with sprayer
• Adjustable wrench
• Plumber’s tape
• Bucket or towel (for excess water)
• Safety goggles
• Flashlight

Step 1: Gather Your Tools

Before you start, make sure you have all the necessary tools and materials on hand. This includes your new kitchen faucet, an adjustable wrench, plumber’s tape, a bucket or towel to catch excess water, safety goggles, and a flashlight if your workspace is poorly lit.

Step 2: Turn Off the Water Supply

Locate the shut-off valves under the sink and turn off both the hot and cold water supplies. This step is crucial to prevent any water leakage while you’re working.

Step 3: Disconnect the Old Faucet

Using the adjustable wrench, carefully disconnect the supply lines from the old faucet. Be prepared for some water drainage, so have your bucket or towel ready.

Step 4: Remove the Old Faucet

Unscrew the old faucet from the sink, and clean the area to ensure there are no remnants or debris.

Step 5: Install the New Faucet

Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for installing your new kitchen faucet with a sprayer. Usually, you’ll need to insert it through the mounting holes and secure it from underneath using the provided hardware.

Step 6: Connect the Water Supply Lines

Connect the hot and cold water supply lines to the corresponding valves on the new faucet. Use plumber’s tape to ensure a tight, leak-free seal.

Step 7: Install the Sprayer

If your kitchen faucet comes with a separate sprayer, install it according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Typically, you’ll need to attach it to the faucet using a hose and secure it to the sink.

Step 8: Turn On the Water

Turn the water supply back on and check for any leaks. Tighten any connections if necessary.

Step 9: Test Your New Faucet

Run both hot and cold water through the faucet and test the sprayer to ensure everything is working correctly.
