Deck hole 2.8 cm - smaller than the required 3.0 cm
After uninstalled the old faucet, about to install the new faucet, I found the hole on my sink deck was too small to install the new faucet. The issue was that my old faucet was cold water pipe input only, the deck hole was 2.8 cm. However the new faucet requires 3.0 cm hole.
It requires 3.0 cm diameter.
Need to change the deck hole from 2.8 cm to 3.0 cm. Bought below hole saw 3.0 cm diameter, cost 6.5 SGD.
This cone saw was too expensive, will cost 35.5 SGD, gave up.
Used electric drill to cut the deck hole from 2.8 cm to 3.0 cm, need to use water to cool down the drilling.
old faucet cold input only - new faucet both cold and hot input
Old faucet was cold input only, while the new faucet is with both cold and hot input pipe, so I bought a two way brass diverter. It cost SGD 5.5.
Old cold only input,
After installed the two way brass diverter.
Installation
After changed the deck hole and installed two way brass diverter, remaining work was easy.
Before installation:
Connect the hot and cold water pipe to the faucet and insert through the 3.0 cm deck hole.
Finally connect the hot pipe and cold pipe to the two way brass diverter.
Below is a small tool to uninstall the arm of the faucet.
