Common Questions

How is this faucet powered, and what is the battery life?

This faucet runs on battery power (6x AA Alkaline Batteries (Included)). Chicago Faucets states a battery life of Up to 5 Years. No electrical wiring or transformer is needed -- it installs anywhere a manual faucet does.

Does it include scald protection?

Yes. It has a built-in ASSE 1070 thermostatic mixing valve, so the delivered water temperature is limited even if the hot supply runs too hot -- the code-required protection for K-12, healthcare and similar occupancies.

How long does the water run before it shuts off?

The sensor holds the water on for 10 seconds of continuous hand presence, then the safety auto-timeout closes it automatically. Removing and re-presenting your hands restarts detection.

Is this faucet ADA compliant?

Yes. It meets ADA / ANSI-ICC A117.1 requirements -- hands-free sensor operation means no grasping, pinching or twisting is required to turn the water on.

Is this faucet lead-free?

Yes. It is ECAST® cast-brass construction with total lead content at or below 0.25% by weighted average, meeting NSF/ANSI/CAN 372 low-lead requirements for potable water.
