How To Install A Kitchen Faucet - Glacier Bay Mckenna Pull Down Kitchen Faucet Install
Вставка
- Опубліковано 2 жов 2021
- You do not need to hire a plumber to install or replace a kitchen faucet. They are getting easier to install as the engineering and materials get better. In this video we demonstrate how to remove an old Price Pfister faucet and install a Glacier Bay Mckenna Pull Down Kitchen Faucet.
We explain details like the the water lines and the pull down sprayer installation and use.
Also, know that the installation difference between a kitchen faucet and a bathroom faucet is very small. Kitchen faucets often have sprayers which make them the tiniest bit more complex that bathroom taps. - Наука та технологія
My father in law passed on May 30 2021 and he took care of everything . Today when I had to face this water damage I didn't know what to do. I really missed him today... Thank God for people like you 🙏🙏 I appreciate the confidence you instilled in me to dominate this repair/ replacement emergency job. 💯 Keep doing what your doing bro, blessings coming your way 💰💰💰
This guy is SO Canadian. And in this context, that's a compliment.
HA!!!! Thanks Polemeros. All this time I thought YOU were the one with the accent!
just a word from my earlier days. put a dry tissue or paper towel under your water valves or plumbing connections and check the next day for a drop of water means you may have a very slow leak. beats heck out of coming back a week later and findings a wet cabinet floor
This is the 3rd one that I've watched and this is by far the most descriptive step by step of them! Thank you sir! As my papa used to say,you are super! Thank you
I followed your demonstration and replaced my kitchen faucet 😮
I just picked that one up at Home Depot for $40. Thank you for this video, even though I had to make a small modification under the sink your video helped out tremendously, thank you!
I just installed my faucet watching this ! U made it so simple thank you 😊
My daughter and I used your excellent instructions to replace our faucet. Thank you!
Great camera work and explanations. 👏 My Tips are to always lay a few paper towels under the sink/connections then check back in hour/two because sometimes there's a slow leak.
Also these water fittings have rubber seals so don't over tighten and always use 2 wrenches. :)
Thank you for showing how easy installing it is! This is the one I just purchased too!
Thank you!!! This is one my first home improvement jobs. I feel like a man now 😊
Thank you so much for the video. I’m starting remodeling the house and this video made the installation so simple and quick
nice job explaining insulation. Really good job. it wasn't a 30 minute video and no hamming it up. thanks.
Thanks for the video. I just tightened my kitchen faucet. Never something I pictured myself doing, but it only took 10 seconds of turning and it was done!!!
Thank you so much for this clear, straightforward tutorial! Made quick work of what had initially seemed like a daunting task. We appreciate you!
Glad it helped!
Perfect for what I needed. Made replacement/install so much easier.
This was perfect, helped me install my new faucet in my kitchen, thank you for the simple tutorial!!
Thank you so much for taking time to make this video. I followed this, not the instructions and it was fairly simple and I’m in no way a handy man. Thank you again!
You can do it David! Faster and better than a pro... and of course lower cost, but the big benefit is the feeling of accomplishment on something you will use for the next 20 years! Way to go David!
@@URTechDotCa Thank you. New sub !
OMG!!
THANK YOU🙏🙏🙏
I read the instructions twice but, I really didn't get it until I watched you do this. Again Thank you 😊
Good to hear this helped. Thanks for the kind words
Good video Sir, gets to the point without a lot of needless hoopla. Thank you!
Your video was helpful. I bought @ Home Depot. I just followed your instructions. I didn’t read the manual. Thanks
Thank you for your video, I was able to install my faucet after watching it
Really well done and concise video; very helpful
Thanks for this content. It was very helpful in prepping me for my GB faucet. I purchased a slightly different GB model but the install procedure was exactly the same.
Thank you very much!!! This is really helpful and saved me a lot of money THANK YOU from NJ
Thanks for a super informative video. I am terrible with my hands but was able to install the whole thing myself, thanks to you.
Anyone can do this one as long as they are willing to try. I am still very happy with mine. Thanks for watching and commenting Shaheer
Awesome! Thank you so much - for a non plumbing / mechanical person your video helped make the replacement so easy by myself! Got the matte black version which was $119USD at Home Depot!
So glad to help Pat. There is no need to hire pro's for these simple jobs. Save yourself money and time but best of all feel good that you did something yourself. Happy New Year!
@@URTechDotCa I agree!
That helped me so much! Thank you for an excellent video. 🎉
Great video! Saved me a bag of cash.
One trivial thing. Why does most everyone call the tank a "hot water heater"?
It's a "water heater". There's no need to heat hot water.
Very easy installation, thank you.
Nice video, thank you! Will be installing mine later today. Except my access under the sink is a little tighter, but will work. Thanks for re-assuring my confidence for this project!
Glad it helps Sabastian. Thanks for the comment and for watching :)
Great video!
Just did this myself while watching this video. Thank you!
Fantastic!
Well done video !!!
Thanks for sharing your installation of this faucet.
Thanks for watching.
great tutorial!! Thanks!
Thanks!! Great video really helpful!! 🎉
I really like your shut off valves
Really nice and helpful
Thanks for the video! My dad installed one similar to this but the faucet part kept moving back to the center when you moved it over to the other sink. Went through the video and realized my dad had wrapped the black water tube around the water lines causing the problem. Undid the black line, and readjusted it. Works perfectly!! Thanks!!
Awesome!
Excellent content 👌
Thank you for your video helped aa lot
thanks so much for this walk thru!
You are so welcome!
Thanks man .Really appreciate it
Glad I could help
Excellent!
Thank you bro. You rock
I appreciated your tutorial and found it simplified for people that are mentally DIY challenge. Yes, I am not only a member but the president of the club.
* My question is, did you ever find out what the Allen key was for?
I'm watching this after taking a second trip to homedepot for silicone because that's what the damn instructions say
I got this exact model for 46.00. 63 and change with the matching soap dispenser.
Great buy.
Thank you for a very informative video. Question: Will I be able to do this same installation on a system that only has 1 cold pipe line (no hot water line)?
It fell amazing
Thanks for the detailed instructions! I found the two ends of my deck plate not completely flush with the sink (you can see a slight gap), while the center is. Does anyone else have that issue?
thank you!
Thanks, God bless
Thank you
How do you get the trim plate or the base to stay down? A plumber came to replace it and it didn’t lay flat so he chalked but the chalking hasn’t been done well. I wonder if he needs to tighten it better
Quick question, I bought one similar to this one has it leaked since no silicone was installed
I had to pull the head attachment off due to leaking. Cleared the line but can't recall how to put both orange pieces back on correctly. The manual doesn't explain how. Advise with photos or a video?
We installed ours and now have o lay hot water, don’t know what went wrong with the cold one. Any thoughts? Thanks
Have this same faucet. How can I change orientation of faucet handle?
Hi there. Thanks for this video. I noticed on the box lid on your McKenna it says in the list of items needed to install "Silicon Sealant." I have the updated McKenna II, and on the front page of manual it says needed: goggles, wrench, silicone sealant. Where would you even put the sealant? It doesn't say in the instructions anywhere, yet it says you need it to install?
Agreed Chris. You COULD add silicone around the base plate but I think you would likely make a mess of an otherwise pretty install. As shown in the video the base plate comes with a nice rubber gasket that is hidden underneath so that is all I used :)
@@URTechDotCa i’ve pretty much got my base plate as tight as can be but it still has some play. If water gets around the base plate it seeps underneath. What do you recommend?
I need help. Mines leaking from where the hoses are inside the head. I don't know how to take it off to get to those hoses
are you dan ackroid? Just wondering.
Where do u exactly put the weight all the way up or down or half wY
It's what year did you think I got my GED or what year do you think I graduated college
Simply .. 🙏🙏🙏🙏
My neck keeps pulling to the right. Can it be tightened.
What year do you think I graduated I had a choice
Good video. I will tell you though, there's a reason those are so inexpensive. Hopefuly it lasts for you but I've had no luck with mine.
As a circle view of apartment person I don't have the luxury of crying in here
They’re on sale for $60 right now on Home Depot. I’m sure it’s worth it!
What if you don’t have enough room to tighten the faucet?
Can you do this if your sink only has one hole rather than 3?
Yes, the instructions usually have a section if you only have one hole.
Yes, the instructions usually have a section if you only have one hole.
Just a FYI. at the end of the video I noticed the weight was just below the hot water shut off handle. Looks like if you wanted to pull down the faucet nozzle to the maximum, you would not be able to because it looks like the weight would get caught between the hot water shut off handle and the hot water pipe
Did I miss the reason for the Allen key? LOL Usually have extra parts with my job completions, not tools!
It's for the set screw on the handle!
I purchased one, no instructions. Don’t know how to do the pull down part. No water access mine is all new plumbing.
How to remove the nut??
🎉
Need to show the hard part. How to disconnect the sprayer hose. Lol. Thanks
Problem is I can’t twist the connection enough to stay tight. It tightens but then looses its grip. Cheap plastic. Taking it back and getting a better brand.
I'd stay away from glacier Bay. Nothing but problems. Get a Moen or Delta. For that quick connect on the glacier Bay I watched another guy use channel lock pliers to get it real tight
I had the same problem... I tightened it down as tight as I could get it with my hand and three weeks later it was loose and wobbly!
Hi Patrick hickey
How do i take off that plastic nut?
We’re you able to figure it out
got mine for $53.00 at Home depot (online) on Nov.15th 2021
Got the Newport shawty don't play like that
I have lots of clothes that I've never got a chance to wear
Wow some silver eclipse Annalise wexlee why would you post your video when they're saying that in the background
I have to change to my nighttime lenses cause I can't actually see anything
Oh my God you guys just finally clicked on it or you guys I guess what I got a chance to start crying today and You had nothing to do with it are you able to afford to do that you broke abih
I don't have a spayer. Now what
Take it back... clogged? Defective?
@@URTechDotCa I got it done
I bet you're jealous cause you wanted to be involved but guess what my tears dry on their own did you see that
Can I live in your house because I'm homeless if you know mind
Newport shoddy don't play like that God goons online all the take is one tap you can tell me 1 more time
