FAQs
What are the main benefits of installing a touchless kitchen faucet in my Maryville home?
Touchless faucets reduce the spread of germs, make meal prep and cleanup faster, and can cut water use by up to 30 %. They also add resale value and meet modern design trends popular with Maryville home buyers.
How does the motion sensor work, and is it reliable for families with kids or frequent guests?
An infrared or capacitive sensor detects a hand or object within 1–3 inches of the spout and opens a solenoid-operated valve. Quality brands rate sensors for 500,000 on/off cycles—more than 10 years of normal family use—so false activations are rare when the faucet is installed and calibrated correctly.
Can my current sink and countertop accept a touchless faucet, or will I need extra plumbing changes?
Most touchless models fit standard 1-, 3-, or 4-hole kitchen sink decks. If you have a single-hole sink, the faucet mounts directly; three or four holes are covered with the supplied escutcheon. Only rarely is a new supply line or shut-off valve needed, and our technicians carry common adapters on the truck.
What does professional installation or replacement typically cost in Maryville?
For homeowners who supply their own faucet, labor runs $175–$250. If you need us to furnish a mid-range touchless unit, the total package averages $475–$650 installed. Prices include removal of the old faucet, new supply lines, leak testing, and a one-year workmanship guarantee.
How do I maintain and troubleshoot a touchless kitchen faucet after it’s installed?
Wipe the sensor window weekly with a soft cloth, clean the aerator every 3–4 months, and replace AA batteries every 18–24 months (or use an AC adapter). If the faucet stops responding, first check batteries, then ensure the sensor lens is clear and the control box cables are firmly seated.
Are touchless faucets code-compliant in Maryville, and will I need a permit to replace an existing fixture?
Yes. Touchless kitchen faucets meet IPC and Tennessee state plumbing standards adopted by Maryville and Blount County. Because a faucet swap is considered “like-for-like” fixture replacement with no structural changes, a permit is not required when a licensed plumber performs the work.
