        Q:Can this fixture be used on a regular sink?

        Answer This Question

        A:  This faucet is designed for single hole bathroom sinks. Most sinks have two holes four inches apart. This faucet is not for those sinks. The sink bowl has a single faucet hole such as the Kohler Farmington K-2905 single hole sink. Kohler makes other versions of this faucet that has an adapter plate that covers the four inch holes and allows the single handle faucets to be used existing sinks.

        by|Jun 27, 2019

          A:  Yes, this can be used on a regular sink.

              A:  Our contractor installed so not sure there was a base plate. It is installed as shown in the attached photo with the base ring only which covers the sink faucet opening(on our bath sink).

                A:  Sandy, my name is Jessica with Kohler Customer Service. I am happy to assist with your inquiry. K-12182 is a single hole installation, if you are wanting a centerset faucet K-12181 comes with the plate. Thank you for choosing KOHLER.

                  Q:What is the overall height? I'd be using this without the base plate. Height is an issue for me. I read through some of the answers and they differ, so that's why I am asking again.

                  A:  Hi, this is Laura with Kohler Co. I am happy to assist you with your question. The height of the faucet is 7-1/2". Please refer to the spec sheet for this and other dimensions; a link is found under the Info & Guides heading. Thank you for choosing KOHLER.

                  by|Mar 16, 2019

                    A:  The overall height is 7.5" from the sink penetration. The base is about 0.5", so without that say 7". The faucet lever needs about an inch of vertical clearance above the top of the faucet to open fully. The Home Depot page for the faucet has a rough-in plan that gives some more dimensions.

                      A:  Hi, this is Laura with Kohler Co. I am happy to assist you with your question. This Fairfax faucet does not have an escutcheon. I would suggest choosing the K-12181 which includes a 6" escutchoen. Thank you for choosing KOHLER.

                        A:  Hi, this is Laura with Kohler Co. I am happy to assist you with your question. The vessel sits 3-1/4" above the countertop; a faucet that has a taller base would be recommended. The style preferred is a personal choice.

                                  A:  This is the single hole laboratory faucet. If your sink has three holes in it then you need to buy the 4 inch base plate to cover up the other holes you’re not using.. Hope this helps
