Figure 1: ROHL A2208LMPN-2 Lavatory Faucet. This image displays the complete ROHL A2208LMPN-2 Lavatory Faucet assembly. It features a high-arc C-spout and two distinct lever handles, all finished in polished nickel. The design is suitable for widespread lavatory installations.
Setup and Installation
This faucet is designed for deck-mount installation with 8-inch centers and requires three 1 3/8-inch cutouts.
- Prepare the Sink: Ensure the sink deck has three pre-drilled holes with 8-inch spacing and a diameter of 1 3/8 inches for the spout and two handles. Clean the area around the holes.
- Install the Spout: Insert the spout assembly through the center hole of the sink deck. Secure it from underneath with the provided washer and mounting nut. Hand-tighten, then use a wrench for a final snug fit.
- Install the Handles: Insert the hot and cold handle assemblies through the left and right holes, respectively. Ensure the hot handle is on the left and cold on the right. Secure each handle from underneath with its respective washer and mounting nut.
- Connect Water Supply Lines: Attach the hot and cold water supply lines to the corresponding inlets on the faucet handles. Connect the other ends of the supply lines to your hot and cold water shut-off valves. Use thread sealant tape on all threaded connections to prevent leaks.
- Connect Spout to Handles: Connect the flexible hoses from the handle assemblies to the spout assembly. Ensure connections are tight.
- Test for Leaks: Slowly turn on the main water supply. Check all connections for leaks. If leaks occur, tighten the connections as needed.
- Flush the Faucet: Remove the aerator from the spout. Turn on both hot and cold water for a few minutes to flush out any debris from the lines. Turn off the water, reattach the aerator.
Operating Instructions
The ROHL A2208LMPN-2 Lavatory Faucet features two lever handles with 1/4-turn ceramic disc control cartridges for precise water flow and temperature control.
- Turning On/Off: Rotate either handle 1/4 turn to open or close the water flow for that specific temperature.
- Adjusting Temperature: Use the left handle for hot water and the right handle for cold water. Mix the desired amount of hot and cold water by adjusting both handles simultaneously.
- Water Flow: The faucet has a maximum flow rate of 1.2 gallons per minute (GPM).
Maintenance
Proper care and maintenance will ensure the lasting beauty and performance of your polished nickel faucet.
- Cleaning: Clean the faucet regularly with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid abrasive cleaners, harsh chemicals, or scouring pads, as these can damage the polished nickel finish.
- Aerator Maintenance: Periodically unscrew the aerator from the spout and clean any mineral deposits or debris that may have accumulated. Rinse thoroughly and reattach.
- Ceramic Disc Cartridges: The 1/4-turn ceramic disc cartridges are designed for long-lasting, drip-free performance and typically require no maintenance. If a leak occurs from the handles, consult the troubleshooting section or a qualified plumber.
