Thanks Again. I watched this video years ago when I had to replace my Moen Faucet Sprayer. I had to replace the Spray again and found your video to be a helpful reminder. Also, as a note to your viewers, Moen's "Buy it for Life" policy is real, I have replaced the Hot & Cold Cartridges once and Sprayers twice for free with free shipping of parts.
hollibvit is my pleasure thanks for returning and supplying the info that is very good to know. I've pinned this to the top hopefully others will see it.
I am a 60 year old woman who decided to change her faucet by herself for the first time ever. I watched a couple of other videos that made it look easy. Then I got stuck and found out I needed a basin wrench. My friends husband borrowed one and she brought it over. We started following the instructions in the moen box but were still not really sure so I went on the moen site to see if they had a video and their site was down for maintenance. So looked on UA-cam for a tutorial for my model and there you were. I cannot thank you enough for this video. Your instructions were so clear and precise. We watched each step, paused the video and did it, repeat until done. Voila I have a properly installed new faucet. Thank you again.

I couldn't be happier. Congratulations. This is exactly why I do this. You are proof its's never too late. We can still learn a thing or two. I'm very humbled and thank YOU for viewing.
Are you happy with the new faucet ? I am within minutes of changing faucets
@@bgsu5052 sorry so late hope you had success with your new faucet. This one was installed in my rental and is still working to this day. No issues yet

But
You were right, it was Easy for you to install on a nice clean worksite! Unfortunatly mine was a Mess! The Old MOEN was installed by the Stooges. The Shut Off Valves were so "Old & Cheap" they had Plastic Handles and one Snapped off in my hand before it shut off the Flow. The other was laid right up against the Sink and I was able to get it mostly shut off with 10/12 Thumps with Plyers. I just shut off the Main after that. At least they used 12" feed lines that were so short they were bent at 85* to 89* at the Connection. I went back with 20", just to hopefully give me a chance at sucess. I know you can't forsee things like this, but it's NOT Always that Easy.
When I put in a new faucet the sprayer didn't work. After seeing this video I checked to see if the MOEN name was right side up on the diverter and sure enough, I installed it upside down! After flipping it the sprayer worked like it was supposed to and suddenly, life is good again! Thanks for pointing out the "small details" like that!
Thanks for the video! It's the first time I've installed a faucet on my own and went easier than I thought!

You are welcome. But now, on a job well done, the to do list will only grow larger. There is no stooping you now. Congratulations on your new found success. Thanks for viewing.
I just installed this setup this morning....it was SOOO easy.
The hardest part was taking out the 10 year old faucet. =)
Are you happy with the Moen faucet that you installed ?
@@bgsu5052 Yes, mine was slightly different (90 degree handles) but it still works good =)
Simple, short, and informative, you couldn't have made this video any better. Thank You!
Martin it’s my pleasure. Thanks for viewing.
It's recommended by Moen to remove the aerator after installation to flush an debris out. Run water for 15 seconds, both hot and cold and then replace aerator.
Almost perfect. The only thing you left out was the necessity and use of a basin wrench. Thank you for helping me with my kitchen!
I know this is 5 years ago, but we just got this faucet today and plan to install tomorrow. Personally I have no clue what I'm doing, so this video is the only help I'll have. Thank you!!! Seems easy enough. I will be back tomorrow and either be crying cuz I ruined not only the faucet but the sink or I'll be bragging "I did it" lol thanks again
Promise372 I do hope it's "I did it!" please let us know. I know you can you can do more than you think. We just have to step out and try.
@The Shack I ordered the supply hoses but thought it was two, only got one so had to order another one. I'll get it installed when it gets here. Should be by Tuesday
Thanks for the video it gave me the confidence to try it myself. I just finished installing my first facet. I did use a little plumbing putty around the 3 main holes just to ensure no water drips through.
Thank you for this video. I actually needed it to disassemble my Moen faucet hookups to install a glass rinser, so thanks again!!
Something people do not know about or know where to find,are the Plumbing
Supply Houses that the pros go to.
Many times what you need, will not be at Home Depot or Lowes, but always
at the local plumbing supply.
I mention this because, there are actually cheaper than the Big Box Stores
& sell to the public at the same price as the tradesmen & can answer your
questions.
Great video. Installation went smooth. Thank you!
@rickw338 my pleasure thank you for viewing
Just what I needed. My first time and your video made life a bit easier.
Thank You!
You are very welcome glad to help. Thanks for viewing
...I don't even want to be dealing with this, right now ... thanks for the tutorial.
I remember in the past 10 years ago when you used to have to have plumbers putty, thread tape and a special wrench to get up behind the sink for the waterlines.
So true thing have really gotten easy but the rates haven't gone down...
I had leaks .... I bought the cheapest hoses for my Delta and tightened as tight as possible. I think that the gasket inside the hoses got torn because i tightened it so tight..
Now I see why this "click" tighten idea was invented.
@frankjones5283 sure helps so we don't over torque. normally just snug them up check for leaks if the drip turn 1/4 turn and repeat. these aren't head bolt that need torqueing to 110 foot pounds LOL. Thanks for viewing.
Just installed one of these & your video helped a bunch. Thanks.
You are very welcome Kevin. This is exactly why i do these, to help. Thank you for viewing.
I am going to attempt to do this next week. Thanks for the video. Makes the installment look easy. Wish me luck.
Thank you Sir !
@dandelion2321 my pleasure, glad to help. Thanks for viewing.
I'll be doing this sometime this week. Thank you for the demo.
laserbeam hope all turned out well , thanks for viewing,
@@TheShackHome Yeah, turned out very well and I appreciate your post. It got me on the right track.
@@laserbeam002 fantastic glad all went well its my pleasure to help.
Thanks! I’m about to install that exact faucet. I noticed you didn’t do anything with the little packet of grease?? Guess I’ll throw it int my toolbox?
I LOVE the new hoses! Unfortunately, I don’t have any extra $$$ to go and get them, maybe Santa will bring me some. Old school, “need a wrench” hoses for me. Lol. Looks great by the way… both the faucet and the video. Thank you so much, it’s been a few years since I had to replace one so it’s nice to have a quick refresher before I climb underneath my sink😱.
Zinkevm1 you are welcome. Good luck in the install. It’s not the most comfortable place to be but we got to due what we got to do. Thanks for viewing.
I'm also wondering about the packet of grease? There is nothing in the instructions or parts list about it?
Great video!
Wow great installation video, super production value. Thank you for posting! 😇
Good, clear instructions! 👍

Thanks for sharing this
I have bought the same faucet, it is very very lightweight, you don't feel you have the faucet on your hand. It should have been a thicker gauge at least on the seating part. You have to provide a kind of washer, one for the hot side and for the cold side, keep the faucet in the center, and not moving. That is the hole is wider than the threaded brass tube goes underneath. PVC washers come with it is not wide enough rim to cover the hole, you can see the light through part of the hole not fully covered by PVC threaded washer goes underneath. The circumference on the top should be wider at least 1/4 more around with the existing surface. Faucet move and don't stay even in the center on the raised part. I made a wider copper washer snugly fit the hole and wider than the PVC threaded washer, Now it didn't move, and don't see light through also. Don't be cheap to provide a wider washer. Always something missing, Thanks Paramasivam
Can it be installed & used without the side sprayer?
Gramma going to try this myself to save some $ Wish me luck.
Thanks for sharing 👍🏽
Aren't you supposed to use Teflon Tape or something on all the threads?
Thanks for the help.
Joe Jarvis you’re welcome. Thank you for viewing
Make a video removing the old faucet. I got everything loose except where the sprayer has that permanent valve under the faucet

Oh I wish you lived in my area....in have a plumbing issue and the plumbers in my area are a joke!😏
tresa27
sorry but that seem to be an issue in many places. My father-in-law asked me to build him a bench because the carpenters in his area were too bust or just didn't want the job because it was too small. There is no job too small I'm living proof. it leads to many other jobs they are missing out. Be optimistic keep looking you just might fine just what you need. It just may take a little more time. Wish I could help.
Where did you get the water supply lines with the plastic end attachments? Those look like they'd really make it easy.
kculbert I got them at home depot you can click on the link and it will take you to them on amazon. Just be sure you supply valve from the wall is 1/2" if it's 3/8" you'll need to make sure you get the correct one. Most common is this with the link.

Thank you for this,
For a sprayer replacement only: Can I replaced just the sprayer or do I need to replace both the sprayer and the connecting hose on a Quick Connect Moen side sprayer?
JOE B434 I haven't looked lately but if they have a sprayer only that will fit the hose yes but it might be a good idea just to replace the complete assembly (sprayer and hose) though it is your choice.
@@TheShackHome Checked it out at Home Depot. For a sprayer only you must use the chrome version. That's the only replacement they have. This won't match my faucet assembly. So I will have to go with the chrome sprayer. Seems like it would be available in stainless finish. Looks like cost cutting to me. Thanks for your reply.
Does the whole Facet wiggle around after you tighten it? I bought one off of Amazon that came with seals and I tightened it as best as I could but it wiggled around alot
Ovoxo no it should not move. Either it is not tight enough or it’s a bad faucet. Try tighten it a bit more then check.
How did you bypass the airgap?
Just installed it, went very easy however my hot water is now not running...I have zero clue how when it was literally just running 5min ago and all I did was shut the valve off, replaced the faucet, turn the valve back on, now no hot water....I'm stumped
JASITO21
sorry for the delay hope you have fixed the issue. My first though would be the valve. Many time older valves get full of corrosion and when they get turned off they get stuck off. You have to replace it. Let us know what the issue turned out to be.
I'm having the same issue with the same style faucet. Considered buying a new line as this is a day long issue. Everything else works!
Thanks for your
Help I’ll do mine next week
Mojo I'm happy to help. Thank you for viewing. I know you will be successful. Happy New Years
Great Job!
Thank you Aqualew got to keep the tenants happy
True!
I just want to replace the sprayer so is it the same model?
Eusebia Santiago they have generic spray handles you can use to replace a broken or damaged one. just make sure it compatible with your brand. If you can find the same brand replacement it should have a lis of faucet models its compatible with
Thanks Sir you rock!
Can u tell me why I have 2 Quick connects with my new Maureen sprayer and hold you with no week before but now the new one is leaking
Great video! If I could ask, if you dont want to use the spray nozzel, do you have to put a screw cap on underneath of the faucet where the water would come out. Thanks
John you know I never tried that, I'm not sure if the water would flow out of the line without the sprayer connecter.
I had the same question. My pipes froze last week and now the water comes out underneath the sprayer button. I rarely use it so I was hoping to just cap it off.
@@wendyfutral3777 I'm here for other issues but it would be easier to just replace the sprayer even if you don't use it because everything snaps together.
@@martina21953 that's what I ended up doing. Just replaced the sprayer.
How do you get the sprayer to stay pointed straight? I'm ocd. 😆
Mine went right in , everything was fine except it leaked inside the faucets, I thought the fittings would leak, it was the cheesy plastic faucet instead.
Do you need to use plumber's putty when doing this installation?
Ray what you see is what i did No plumbers putty at all. The only place i would consider it would be the base of the faucet that is your call this time i chose not to.
Most faucets now at days come with a gasket which is the clear piece under the faucet plate. These faucets do not require plumbers putty but if you wish to use plumbers putty just take the gasket off and apply some.
Thank You!!!!
You forgot to show how to install the sprayer base on to the sink with only one person. I'm installing this now and no way to tighten this without two people. Thinking of using a vice grip to stop the fixture from rotating. Care to share how you managed? P.S. Seems if you screw the fixture in as much as you can then insert the sprayer hose, pulling on the hose supplies sufficient friction to complete the screw down. Another downer about this Moen, Try using a hair dryer on the spray hose to relax it. This thing is coiled like a Rattlesnake. I can only extract about a foot through the top of the sink -no more. The only saving grace is the spray head rotates 360 degrees, otherwise it would probably be useless. Finally, the handles are too long (in the name of style no doubt) and bump into the sprayer head (which can be rotated out-of-the-way but still a pain). Who is designing these things? Obviously, the lowest bidder.
Kenton Kirkpatrick I did this complete install with no tools. as far as the hose I demostated that by runnung hot water through the hose to relax it and worked fine, the handles dont touch on mine all worked great.
@@TheShackHome Good idea about running hot water through hose.
@@TheShackHome After using for five months, I stand by my statement. The handles are too long. Unless you turn to the sprayer to the right (after use), the handle bumps into the sprayer. PITA.
Don't you need to apply the Teflon tape to the threads? Thanks
Edward Dean no this has been on now for a few years and no leak. Normally you would but these new things are fantastic
what if the water is too hot?
I have a feeling finding those slick water supply lines will be difficult.
Calbenmike Home Depot carries these. Only a time or two they were out of stock but hopefully in stock near you if not you can always go on line order them and have them delivered or pick them up in store.
You only connected one inlet?
What about hot cold?
What supply lines were you using at 2:55
I was doing great but couldn't figure out why I couldn't tighten the nut under the sprayer. I have the line hooked up already and can not get it off. Any suggestions? UGH!!!
Never mind. I figured it out. If you do the same as I did, use the button on the 'Smart Connect' and the hose will release.
Ann you are talking about the gusset for the sprayer. Is it spinning when you try to loosen the nut? you may need another pair of hands to hold it on top while you try to loosen it but you should just tighten it and the rest is simple. If it doesn't tighten you may have cross threaded the nut If you get it off pull it out and check the threads. The line if its the same faucet the dark tab on the side all you do is push on one and it will release it from the fitting. watch that part at 4:10 in the video
Did those "toolless" water lines come with the kit? I'm over basin wrenches and "breaking" things lol
Matt Shields
No I purchased them separately at home depot. Soo much easier and they haven't once leaked to this day
@@TheShackHome i dont see any with those hand tighten nuts on both ends like you have. Do you know they are called? Couldn’t find them on the Home Depot site thanks
Never mind just found them they are called click seal
... I can't get the hoses disconnected!!! The jokers that put the sink in have the washers on so tight they won't budge!!! - which means I can't pull out the faucet in order to replace the copper plug inside. VERY frustrated, the kitchen is a mess and I'm starting to feel like Kramer, washing out my dishes in the bathroom or basement sink. ANY advice???
My sprayer stopped working. The spray was SO strong, I wanted to lower it. I pressed the button on the tube under the sink. Now the sprayer doesn't work. HELP!!
Can you give me a part number for the supply lines?
Cessna 89811 this is for a 20" line I'd check local stores for a shorter line of needed. This is from Home Depot. It a Fluidmaster Model #B1F20CSR
@@TheShackHome You are my Professor of plumbing!!! Thanks again for sharing your talent. Watching you made me easily replace the kitchen faucet!
What if the water is way too hot?
if your water is too hot you might want to turn the water heater down a bit.
@@TheShackHome thank you
No need for Teflon tape using Fluidmaster Click Seal?
Vince this has been in the rental over a year and a half with not one drop or issue.

Where did you get the water lines that you can tighten by hand?
friend4uabc i got them at Home Depot when i got the faucet. Look for the fluidmaster Click Seal Faucet connectors and get the length you need these were 16". Thanks for viewing.
The part that connects the hose to the faucet leaks (see ua-cam.com/video/K6TYBKZUO5s/v-deo.html). It clicks nicely to the faucet, snug as it can be. The hose clicks in place too. So what is the issue?
Harvestr99 Do both leak or just one. It should self-sealing I can only think of a few basic options. Take it off and check to see if any dabree has interfered with the seal. wipe off the threads and clean out the hoses threads itself, reattach and see if it still leaks. If so try to tighten with channel locks just a bit, check again. If only one is leaking I'd return it for another one. Just could be a bad line.
@@TheShackHome Hi Shack. I was pretty sure the issue was new fitting on an old faucet. Parts might change over time. So, I just bought a whole new faucet. All the parts look the same as my old one, but the faucet I bought was a kit with the sprayer as well. Everything worked fine the first time. So, it was just a matter of old faucet not working with new parts. Thanks for the reply.
I am have difficulty with the side sprayer. The minimal instructions in this video are not helpful
Too long
Thanks
