1. Preparation

Install the water supplies and drain piping according to the

roughing-in information.

Determine the faucet centerline location. Consider the faucet and

handle escutcheon diameters, the length of the spout, and the

clearance between the spout and the lavatory rim.

Calculate the faucet centerline measurement by ﬁrst dividing the

escutcheon diameter by 2, and then adding 1/4″ (6 mm) to the

result. If necessary, round the calculation up to the nearest 1/16″

(2 mm).

Carefully draw the calculated faucet centerline on the cut-out

template. Choose the most suitable location based upon the

following factors:

•

compliance with all local plumbing codes

•

minimum 2″ (5.1 cm) distance from the water stream to the

lavatory rim edge. This is important to ensure adequate clearance

for hand washing

•

a minimum 1/4″ (6 mm) distance between the faucet spout and

the lavatory rim

Redraw the faucet centerline as needed to meet these

requirements.

Draw a line on the cut-out template a minimum of 2″ (5.1 cm)

behind the ﬁnal faucet centerline. This is the minimum

backsplash locator line.
