Setup and Installation

Installation of the Moen Align Faucet requires basic plumbing knowledge. If you are unsure about any steps, it is recommended to consult a qualified professional plumber.

Before You Begin:

  • Ensure all included components are present.
  • Turn off the main water supply to the bathroom.
  • Clear the area under the sink for easy access.
  • Gather necessary tools (adjustable wrench, screwdriver, plumber's putty/silicone sealant).

Installation Steps:

  1. Prepare the Sink: Clean the faucet mounting area on the sink. If using the optional deckplate, place it over the sink holes.
  2. Install Faucet Body: Insert the faucet body through the sink hole(s). Ensure the supply lines are fed through as well.
  3. Secure Faucet: From underneath the sink, attach the mounting hardware to secure the faucet firmly to the countertop. Tighten nuts evenly.
  4. Connect Supply Lines: Connect the hot and cold supply lines from the faucet to the corresponding water supply valves. Hand-tighten first, then use a wrench for a snug fit, being careful not to overtighten.
  5. Install Drain Assembly: Follow the specific instructions for installing the lift rod drain assembly into the sink drain hole. Apply plumber's putty or silicone sealant as directed to ensure a watertight seal.
  6. Test for Leaks: Slowly turn on the main water supply. Check all connections for leaks. If leaks occur, tighten connections slightly.

For detailed visual instructions, refer to the included installation manual or the official Moen website.

Operating Instructions

The Moen Align Faucet features a single lever handle for easy operation:

  • Turning On/Off: Lift the lever handle upwards to turn on the water. Push it downwards to turn off the water.
  • Adjusting Water Temperature: Move the lever handle to the left for hotter water and to the right for colder water.
  • Adjusting Water Volume: The further you lift the lever handle, the greater the water flow. Lowering it reduces the flow.
  • Drain Stopper: The lift rod on the back of the faucet controls the drain stopper. Pull up the rod to close the drain and push down to open it.

Maintenance

To maintain the beauty and functionality of your Moen Align Faucet, follow these simple cleaning and care guidelines:

  • Regular 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 finish.
  • Drying: After cleaning, dry the faucet thoroughly with a soft towel to prevent water spots, especially on the chrome finish.
  • Aerator Cleaning: If water flow becomes restricted, the aerator may be clogged. Unscrew the aerator from the spout (use the provided tool if necessary), rinse away any debris, and reattach.
  • Avoid Polishes: Do not use waxes, polishes, or other abrasive cleaners on the faucet finish.
