Good morning my friends and readers!

I’m feeling very satisfied that I replaced and installed our kitchen faucet today. The old one started giving us a problem recently. It was the switch between normal flow and rinse flow that malfunctioned. We were thinking about replacing it for a while. I was a little reluctant to do it, not because of its cost, it was the installation that I was worried about whether I could pull this off.

A lot of American men are Do It Youselfers at home for minor repairs or installations because hiring professionals are expensive and may take a long time to get an appointment. People chose to DIY because they also enjoy doing it.

Thanks to YouTube that you can find almost instruction on how-tos. I searched YouTube and even found the instruction on how to install the faucet with the brand name and model. Pretty amazing, ha? So I followed the instructions step by step.

The only problem I had was removing the old faucet. It wasn't too old. And the previous installation was done a licensed plumber. Everything was hooked up so tight. This made removing the old assembly so difficult, especially I had to climb under the kitchen sink and working in a very small space crowded with many other tubes and wires.

Finally, I did it! And installing the new set was relatively easy. The result looks great!
