Installation Instructions
Professional installation is recommended for this product. Ensure all local plumbing codes are followed.
Before You Begin:
- Turn off the main water supply to the installation area.
- Clear the installation area above your stove.
- Gather all necessary tools (e.g., wrench, pipe sealant, measuring tape, level).
- Inspect the product for any damage prior to installation.
Mounting Steps:
- Identify the desired mounting location above your stove. Ensure it is structurally sound and can support the faucet's weight and operation.
- Refer to the technical drawing (see Specifications section) for precise dimensions and rough-in requirements. The faucet requires a cold water hookup.
- Install the wall-mounted base according to the diagram, ensuring it is level and securely fastened to the wall studs or appropriate blocking.
- Connect the cold water supply line to the faucet's inlet. Use appropriate pipe sealant or Teflon tape on threaded connections to prevent leaks.
- Attach the faucet body to the wall-mounted base, ensuring all connections are tight.
- Carefully turn on the main water supply and check for any leaks.
- Test the faucet's operation, extending and retracting the spout to ensure smooth movement.
Important Note: The faucet is designed for cold water hookup only. Ensure the water supply is clean and free of debris before connecting.
Operation
The Waterstone Hunley Pot Filler Faucet is designed for simple and efficient operation.
- Extend the Spout: Gently pull the articulated spout arm away from the wall and extend it over the pot you wish to fill. The spout can reach up to 22 inches.
- Turn On Water: Rotate the single lever handle to turn on the water flow. The 1/4 turn ceramic disk valve allows for quick and precise control.
- Fill Pot: Fill your pot to the desired level. The aerated stream ensures a smooth, splash-free fill.
- Turn Off Water: Rotate the lever handle back to the off position. The built-in check valve prevents any residual dripping.
- Retract Spout: Gently fold the articulated spout arm back towards the wall until it is neatly tucked away.
Always ensure the spout is fully retracted when not in use to prevent accidental activation or obstruction.
Care and Cleaning
Proper care and cleaning will help maintain the beauty and longevity of your Waterstone faucet's finish.
About Your Finish:
Waterstone finishes are designed for durability. Regular cleaning is recommended. Avoid abrasive cleaners, clothes, or pads that can scratch the finish. Trapped moisture on the surface can lead to staining. Astringent cleaners, chlorine, bleach, and acidic based organic cleansers are potentially harmful. Chrome plated finishes are very tarnish resistant.
Suggested Finish Maintenance Procedures:
- Do not allow water spots to dry on the fixture.
- Periodic cleaning can be done by applying denatured isopropyl alcohol with a soft clean cloth to gently remove surface spots.
- Never use cleaners with abrasives, soft scrub, Clorox, or any type of abrasive pad or sponge.
IMPORTANT NOTICE: It is the responsibility of the customer to check for any material finish defects before installation.

| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |

| Low Water Flow | Partially closed shut-off valve; Clogged aerator; Debris in water line. | Ensure shut-off valve is fully open. Unscrew and clean the aerator. Flush water lines before reattaching faucet. |
| Leaking from Spout | Worn O-rings; Damaged ceramic disk cartridge. | Contact Waterstone customer support for replacement parts or professional assistance. |
| Difficulty Moving Spout | Accumulation of mineral deposits or debris in joints. | Clean joints with a soft cloth and mild cleaner. Avoid forcing the spout. |

Warranty Information
All Waterstone products are manufactured with high standards and carry a Limited Lifetime Guarantee against functional defects in material or workmanship in a residential application.
For complete information about your warranty, please consult with an authorized Waterstone dealer or contact Waterstone directly.
WARNING: Since 2005, Waterstone has advised customers against the installation of any brand of in-line water chiller unit with their faucets. Compressor style chiller units have been proven to arbitrarily exceed standard household in-line pressure ratings, potentially causing the faucet inlet connection line to burst and creating the potential for water damage claims.
USE OF AN IN-LINE INSTALLATION OF A WATER CHILLER WITH A WATERSTONE FAUCET OF ANY KIND WILL VOID YOUR WARRANTY.
Waterstone will only recommend the installation of a water chiller in the vented side (in place of a hot tank) with one of their Hot & Cold Filtration faucet models.
