Frequently Asked Questions

 Deluxe Model

Q: What does the "Latch" do?
A: The Latch turns on the hot and cold water at the same time and leaves them on so you can walk away for a few seconds. You can adjust your faucet lever(or knobs) for fine tuning temperature and flow volume.

Q: How long are the levers on the Foot Faucet?
A: The levers are variable in length from 3.25" to 5.5". You can select a length range when ordering, or call us for a special length

Q: Do I need a garbage disposal to use the Foot Faucet systems?
A: No. But you do need electrical power under the sink. The Foot Faucet can use power from the garbage disposal, the dishwasher or you can have an electrician hard wire in power for the Foot Faucet.

Q: Isn't having a foot operated garbage disposal dangerous?
A: Having a foot operated garbage disposal is safer than a wall switch because the disposal is only on when the pedal is being pressed. While a deliberate foot motion is needed to turn the disposal on, only a slight foot movement turns off the disposal in an emergency, instead of a difficult to reach wall switch.

Q: How long does it take to get a Foot Faucet?
A: We make them here in our shop so they usually ship in 1 to 2 days.

Q: Is there a way to switch back to using the regular faucet after I install the Foot Faucet?
A: Yes, If you turn on the Latch then you can use the regular faucet handle(s) like before installation. This allows you to switch back and forth between foot pedal control and regular faucet handle control.

Q: What are the return and warranty policies for the Foot Faucet?
A: You can return the Foot Faucet for 30 days after you receive it for a full refund, no reason required. The Foot Faucet is built tough so we have a lifetime warranty on the Foot Faucet, return any malfunctioning part for a no-cost replacement.

Q: Can the Foot Faucet have levers made from brass or bronze?
A: Yes. We can make special orders for brass and bronze, and other specials too... Do you have a specific need?

Q: What do we do if the power goes out?
A: The Foot Faucet comes with a manual by-pass feature that holds our valves open so you can use your hand faucet normally until power is restored.
