Installation Planning
Coordinate the complete touchless system—not only the visible fixture
A touchless installation can include the fixture body, sensor, solenoid or valve module, controller, power supply, filters, hoses, soap reservoir or feed tube and accessible service space. Components vary by model and configuration.
Confirm the exact product code before drilling, countertop fabrication, wall closure or electrical coordination. The approved model-specific document always takes priority over general guidance.
Installation Paths
Start with the fixture configuration
Use the path that matches the selected mounting method and system type.

System Coordination
Five installation layers to verify
Exact components and connection requirements vary by product. Use these layers as a coordination checklist—not as a substitute for the selected model’s installation sheet.
01Fixture GeometryMounting surface, opening, spout reach, basin relationship and splash control.
02Water PathSupply, filtration, mixing arrangement, valve module and accessible connections.
03Power & ControlSpecified AC, battery or model-specific power and protected cable routing.
04Sensor ZoneDetection area, surrounding surfaces, adjacent fixtures and intended hand position.
05Service AccessMaintainable access to filters, power, valves, controllers, reservoirs and tubing.
Engineering Package
Project documents for coordinated handwashing systems
Use the specialized resources below for commercial multi-station layouts and multidisciplinary project coordination.
Before Handover
Commission and document the installed system
Complete the exact procedure required by the selected product and preserve the documents required for future service.
Flush: Clear supply lines before final valve operation.
Inspect: Check connections, filters, tubing, cables and accessible components.
Test: Verify activation, shutoff, stream landing and soap delivery where applicable.
Record: Retain product codes, settings, manuals and service information.
Verify every requirement against the exact model
This hub organizes category-level installation and coordination resources. Faucet bodies, mounting hardware, control modules, power arrangements, connections and soap-delivery components vary by product. Follow the approved model-specific instructions and all applicable project requirements.
Installation Support
Touchless installation questions
What should be confirmed before a touchless fixture is installed?
Confirm the exact faucet or dispenser model, mounting configuration, required openings, component package, connection arrangement, power source and accessible service location.
Why must the faucet and basin be coordinated?
The spout position, water-stream landing area, basin depth and surrounding surfaces affect usability, splash control and sensor performance. Verify the complete relationship before fabrication or drilling.
When should power and sensor testing occur?
After the required water connections and flushing are complete, energize the fixture and perform the model-specific setup, activation and shutoff tests before project handover.
Where are BIM and project-coordination documents located?
Use the
BIM and Revit library, then confirm the latest installation sheets and supporting documents listed for the exact product being specified.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I choose the correct bathroom faucet guide?
Match the guide to the faucet configuration: single-piece or widespread, deck-mounted or wall-mounted, and manual or sensor-operated. VIEW ALL INSTALLATION CATEGORIES
What dimensions should be checked before drilling?
Confirm hole count, hole diameter, center spacing, deck thickness, spout reach and clearance for connections below the mounting surface.
When is the wall-mount clearance guide needed?
Use it before rough-in whenever the faucet body or spout is wall-mounted and must coordinate precisely with the basin rim and drain.
What should be checked before project handover?
Verify secure mounting, correct hot and cold orientation, leak-free connections, intended flow and access to shutoffs and serviceable parts.
