FAQs
What are the main benefits of installing touchless faucets in my Gatlinburg home or business?
Touchless faucets offer improved hygiene by reducing contact with germs, lower water consumption through automatic shut-off, enhanced convenience when your hands are full or dirty, and a modern look that can increase your property’s value. They’re especially beneficial in high-traffic kitchens and bathrooms, rental cabins, and commercial settings where cleanliness and water efficiency are priorities.
Can a touchless faucet replace my existing fixture without changing the countertop or sink?
In most cases, yes. Many touchless faucets are designed to fit standard single-hole and three-hole sink configurations. Our Gatlinburg plumbing team will assess your current setup, provide any necessary deck plates or adapters, and ensure that wiring or battery packs are hidden neatly. Only rarely does the countertop require modification.
How are touchless faucets powered, and what maintenance is involved?
Most residential touchless models use AA or lithium batteries that last 1–2 years, while some high-end units can be hard-wired to a low-voltage transformer. Maintenance mainly involves periodic battery replacement, cleaning the sensor lens with a soft cloth, and occasionally flushing the aerator to remove mineral buildup common in Gatlinburg’s mountain water supply.
Will a touchless faucet work during a power outage?
Battery-operated touchless faucets continue to function during power outages, so you’ll still have running water. Hard-wired models often have battery backups or manual override handles. When we install your faucet, we’ll review power-loss options to make sure you’re never without water.
How long does a typical touchless faucet installation or replacement take?
A straightforward swap in an existing sink usually takes 1–2 hours. This includes removing the old faucet, installing the new sensor-operated unit, mounting any control box, and testing for leaks and correct sensor range. If a shut-off valve or supply line also needs replacement, add about 30 minutes.
Do you provide warranties or service plans for touchless faucet replacements in Gatlinburg?
Yes. All fixtures we supply come with the manufacturer’s warranty—typically 3–5 years on electronics and finish, and a lifetime warranty on the valve cartridge. Our labor is covered for one year, and we offer optional annual service plans that include sensor calibration, battery changes, and water-pressure checks to keep your touchless faucet performing flawlessly.
