Fontana DualOrion™ Gold Widespread Basin Faucet: Spout Reach and Height Detail
This dimensional resource explains how the faucet’s horizontal projection and outlet elevation relate to the selected basin. It supports architects, vanity designers, fabricators and installers evaluating water-delivery position, hand clearance, splash behavior, basin-rim clearance and coordination with mirrors, shelves and backsplashes.
High-Arc Spout Dimensional Profile
The curved spout projects 5.91 inches from its mounting centerline to the outlet and places that outlet 5.91 inches above the finished deck. Its 9.06-inch overall height describes the highest point of the arch. Together, these dimensions determine how the faucet relates to the basin interior and nearby vertical surfaces.
- Spout reach: 5.91 inches / 150 mm
- Spout height: 5.91 inches / 150 mm
- Overall faucet height: 9.06 inches / 230 mm
- Spout form: High-arc curved profile
- Mounting: Deck mounted
- Water direction: Downward into basin
- Primary reference: Finished countertop surface
Spout Projection and Outlet Elevation
The side elevation identifies the horizontal spout reach and vertical outlet height from the finished deck. The front elevation confirms the overall arch height. The plan view illustrates how the 5.91-inch reach should project toward the basin’s usable interior rather than the rim, countertop or extreme rear wall.
Confirmed dimensions shown in inches and millimeters. Diagram supports coordination and should not be scaled for fabrication.
| Dimension | Published value | Reference points | Design purpose |
|---|---|---|---|
| Spout reach | 5.91 in. / 150 mm | Spout mounting centerline to outlet center | Positions water flow over the basin interior. |
| Spout height | 5.91 in. / 150 mm | Finished deck to outlet center | Defines usable hand and vessel clearance beneath the outlet. |
| Overall faucet height | 9.06 in. / 230 mm | Finished deck to highest point of arch | Controls coordination with mirrors, shelves and backsplashes. |
Basin Compatibility and Water-Delivery Review
Identify Spout Centerline
Mark the faucet center on the deck and relate it to the basin center and drain position.
Project the Reach
Measure 5.91 inches toward the basin to visualize where the outlet will sit over the bowl.
Check Outlet Height
Confirm the 5.91-inch elevation provides useful hand clearance without excessive drop to the basin.
Review Basin Depth
Consider bowl depth, bottom contour and drain position when estimating splash and water capture.
Inspect Rim Location
Ensure the projected water stream clears the rear rim and lands inside the usable washing area.
Check Vertical Surfaces
Compare the 9.06-inch overall height with mirrors, shelves, trim and backsplash features.
Dry-Fit the Fixture
Place the spout on the actual vanity before final drilling whenever project conditions permit.
Observe Water Performance
After connection, run the faucet and confirm the stream is captured without objectionable splash.
Design and Installation Considerations
Water Landing Point
The outlet should project beyond the rear basin rim and toward the primary washing area.
Splash Management
Pair the outlet height with adequate bowl depth and avoid directing flow onto a shallow or sharply sloped surface.
Hand Clearance
The 5.91-inch outlet elevation provides the vertical space available for normal handwashing beneath the spout.
Backsplash Clearance
Confirm the tall arch does not conflict with projecting trim, shelves or raised backsplash profiles.
Mirror Coordination
Allow practical cleaning space between the faucet’s highest point and the mirror or mirrored cabinet.
Deck Position
Changing the faucet’s setback changes the water landing point even though the spout dimensions remain fixed.
Spout Coordination Checklist
- The spout centerline is aligned with the basin and intended water-delivery area.
- The 5.91-inch projection clears the rear rim and reaches the usable bowl interior.
- The 5.91-inch outlet height provides comfortable hand clearance.
- The bowl depth and surface contour support controlled water capture.
- The 9.06-inch overall height clears the backsplash, mirror and nearby shelving.
- The selected deck setback does not shift the stream too close to either basin edge.
- The faucet can be cleaned without interference from adjacent vertical surfaces.
- Final water performance is checked after installation and supply flushing.

The designer, fabricator and licensed installer must confirm faucet setback, basin compatibility, clearances and installed water performance before final acceptance.
