    You can add versatility to your faucet by installing a sink sprayer.

    Materials:

    Sink sprayer kit
    Basin wrench

    1. Turn off the water by closing the valves under the sink.

    2. Make sure the faucet can handle a sink sprayer. The faucet will have a capped opening beneath it. Remove the cap (figure A).

    3. Remove the soap dispenser or previous sprayer with a basin wrench (figure B).

    4. Insert the holder for the sprayer, and tighten the nut from beneath the sink. Feed the hose through the opening in the holder.

    5. Attach the hose to the connection under the faucet (figure C).
