If you just want to replace the faucet and not the whole sink, you should know the number of mounting holes in the sink and how many mounting holes the faucet will need. The mounting hole for the Kitchen Sink is used to mount the faucet and other accessories (such as a soap dispenser or cup washer).

You should choose the fitting and the type of faucet according to the number of holes in your sink, so as not to install your fittings without extra holes after installing the faucet.

2.Installtion：deck/wall

Some type of kitchen faucets are deck-mounted, while others are wall-mounted. If the faucet is deck-mounted, you should note the size of the mounting hole. If the faucet is wall-mounted, you should pay attention to the thickness of the wall, because too thin wall will cause the valve core can not be embedded.

In addition, many faucets have sensors that turn them on and off quickly without the need to twist the handle.
