Fontana Countertop Faucet & Soap Dispenser: Plumbing Rough-In Drawing

This plumbing rough-in resource is intended to support architects, plumbing engineers, interior designers, countertop fabricators, contractors, installers and facility managers coordinating the Fontana countertop faucet and soap dispenser within commercial and residential lavatory environments. The drawing package identifies the fixture centerlines, deck thickness, under-counter clearance, hot- and cold-water supplies, thermostatic mixing valve, solenoid valve, flexible hoses, shutoff valves and recommended installation dimensions.

Fontana Rose Gold Countertop Faucet and Soap Dispenser

This coordinated fixture set combines a lead-free brass countertop faucet and matching soap dispenser with a rose gold PVD finish. The plumbing rough-in drawing supports deck preparation, fixture positioning, supply piping, valve placement, solenoid coordination and maintenance access below the countertop.

  • Fixture set: Countertop faucet and soap dispenser
  • Installation: Deck mounted / countertop mounted
  • Finish: Rose gold PVD
  • Material: Lead-free brass construction
  • Application: Commercial and residential restroom / lavatory
  • Hot-water connection: 1/2-inch NPSM
  • Cold-water connection: 1/2-inch NPSM
  • Recommended mixing valve: Thermostatic mixing valve
  • Flow-control component: 24 VDC solenoid valve
  • Maximum deck thickness: 57 mm (2-1/4 in.)
  • Minimum under-counter clearance: 203 mm (8.0 in.)
  • Recommended center-to-center spacing: 203 mm (8.0 in.)

Required Plumbing Rough-In Drawing Package

Each drawing should use a consistent scale, dimension style and fixture identification block. Measurements should be referenced from the finished countertop surface, fixture centerlines, wall plane and pipe centerlines. The drawing package should clearly identify the supply sizes, center-to-center spacing, maximum deck thickness, minimum service clearance, valve locations, flexible connections and electrical requirements associated with the solenoid.

Plumbing Rough-In Overview

Shows the complete installation relationship between the countertop faucet, soap dispenser, hot- and cold-water supplies, thermostatic mixing valve, solenoid valve, flexible hoses and shutoff valves. This drawing provides an overall reference for plumbing coordination and project submittals.

Rough-In Front View

Illustrates the under-counter arrangement from the front and identifies the fixture centerlines, 203 mm recommended spacing, supply-hose routing, mixing valve, solenoid valve and individual shutoff valves.

Rough-In Side Section

Shows the faucet body, countertop, concealed mounting assembly, flexible supply hoses and wall relationship in profile. The side section identifies the recommended 64 mm wall-to-pipe centerline dimension and minimum service clearance.

Fixture Centerlines

Identifies the faucet and dispenser centerlines and the recommended 203 mm center-to-center separation. These references support countertop drilling, fixture alignment and basin coordination.

Maximum Deck Thickness

Defines a nominal maximum countertop thickness of 57 mm (2-1/4 in.). Confirm the finished deck build-up allows full engagement of the mounting shanks, washers and retaining nuts.

Under-Counter Clearance

Identifies a recommended minimum clear service zone of 203 mm (8.0 in.) below the countertop. Maintain additional room where required for valves, power supply, hose routing and maintenance access.

Hot and Cold Water Supplies

Shows separate 1/2-inch NPSM hot- and cold-water connections serving the mixing assembly. Individual shutoff valves are recommended to permit isolation, commissioning and future service.

Mixing and Solenoid Valves

Illustrates the recommended thermostatic mixing valve and electrically operated 24 VDC solenoid valve. Valve locations should remain accessible and should not interfere with the basin, drain or cabinetry.

Flexible Hose Routing

Shows the braided supply hoses connecting the fixture, shutoff valves and mixing assembly. Hoses should be routed without kinks, abrasion, excessive tension or contact with sharp edges.

Engineering note: All dimensions shown are nominal, and the drawing should not be scaled. Verify countertop penetrations, supply sizes, valve positions, centerline spacing, deck thickness, service clearance and electrical requirements against the current FontanaShowers specification sheet, approved product sample and installation instructions before rough-in or fabrication.

Architectural and Plumbing Coordination Considerations

Basin Alignment

Position the faucet so the water stream enters the usable basin area without striking the backsplash, countertop or front rim.

Fixture Spacing

Coordinate the recommended 203 mm center-to-center dimension with the basin, backsplash, soap-dispensing zone and countertop fabrication layout.

Supply-Line Routing

Route hot- and cold-water lines so they remain accessible and do not interfere with drain piping, cabinet hardware or the soap reservoir.

Valve Access

Locate shutoff, mixing and solenoid valves where they can be inspected, adjusted, isolated and replaced without removing the countertop.

Electrical Separation

Keep the solenoid power supply and wiring separated from potential leak paths while maintaining adequate access for commissioning and service.

Maintenance Clearance

Preserve sufficient under-counter space for hose connections, valve operation, soap-system service and routine maintenance activities.

Professional Engineering and Accessibility References

Project verification: Plumbing rough-in drawings are coordination tools and do not replace approved project submittals. The architect, plumbing engineer, countertop fabricator, contractor and licensed installer should verify supply sizes, fixture centerlines, deck thickness, service clearance, shutoff valves, mixing valve, solenoid valve, flexible hoses, power requirements, accessibility criteria and locally adopted plumbing codes before installation.
