Mine is 3 1/2" on center so @ 3/4" should be fine for the arm itself to move freely. The handle only moves toward you or to the right of you. It does not move back toward the back splash. Hope this helps.

Back splash clearance shouldn't be a problem if the faucet set up as shown with the valve in the right side. When the valve handle is in the vertical position, 12 o'clock, it is set for cold water and cannot move back to say the 3 o'clock position. It can only move forward to the 9 o'clock position which is for hot water. To turn the water on the valve handle is moved horizontally. Base to the top of the handle is 9". We still like the faucet a lot. I hope this helps.

You only need to pull down/forward or pull to right. You don't push the handle back at all.

No idea. Idea. I just looked at mine. The whole goose-neck part could spin 360 degrees if it were mounted on an island prep sink for instance with no back splash - but not sure that would ever be something I would do. THe spout part is about 9.5" above the countertop if you rotate it beyond the sink to situate it above the countertop (I just measured it). The 2 3/4 you have will not interfere with this faucet pivoting 180 degrees. I check the operation of the water handle too. Mine rotates toward the front of the sink (to turn water on), not back toward the backsplash. Hope this helps. No idea. Idea. I just looked at mine.

Well, not much. If you look at the base which is ~10.5" x 2.5" which sits on your sink, the handle only goes past that plate (birds eye view) just over 0.5" which isn't much at all. I have ~2" just past it's back position room from our back splash. Hope this helps and I can take a photo and email it to you if you'd like?

I have 4 inches between faucet an back splash. The handle goes about half way. I would say 3 inches from faucet to be safe.

My backsplash is exactly 4" from the handle when said handle is on full hot water mode, (which also means when the handle is moved toward the backsplash). Of course the distance of your sink faucet holes to the wall (backsplash) are predetermined by how close/far the sink is set to the wall/backsplase. I wouldn't worry about this issue because your sink will always be set a comfortable distance from the wall for this faucet to operate.

The knife block measures 10 inches from the back edge to the front edge. So from a wall or back splash to the front bottom edge it measures 10 inches.

I just measured it. The minimum clearance required to remove the ceramic top from the tank is 31.0". Of course that does not let you get into the tank to replace the flush valve or clear some other problem; for that you would have to unbolt the tank and remove it. It's been some months since I installed that toilet (in a vacation home where I am at the moment), but if memory serves there would be a need for another few inches of clearance to tilt the tapered, gasketed tank bottom into its receiver on the back of the bottom (basin) component of the toilet. If you are considering having a removable shelf above the tank, you will need 30-3/4" (about 30.8") of clearance, not 30.6". Otherwise, to make maintenance feasible, you will need about 33" of clearance at a minimum, and that will require you to drain and unbolt the tank to remove it for access to the internal components. Relative to David O.'s answer to this question, I too would not buy it again, basically for the reason he states: the water spot (i.e., wetted surface area) of this toilet is too small, so that fecal matter tends to stick to the ceramic surface. Plan on keeping a toilet brush (and holder) nearby for frequent use.

In my sink, the center of the handle (or should I say, the circle at the base of the handle) is three inches from the rear wall. That leaves a little over an inch from the handle to the back wall.

Just measured mine. You are correct, there is a extension that goes out side the wall that's almost 2 inches. You will need 3 3/4 inches in depth. You are close enough that you may be able to use this unit by installing it with the 3 1/2 depth you have and using some white caulk around the edges for the 1/4 inch space you may have, other wise you may need to find a diff product.

My backsplash is 3 inches from the center of my faucet spiket. Handle is on the side, straight back means cold, but you pull out to run the water. The clearance for the on portion is fine with 3 inches (not from the back of the edge of the faucet, but middle of the faucet is only 3 inches and it is plenty room. Hope this make sense....

I have my fauchet in the back,center. I haven't had any trouble with splashing.

The handle travels approximately 2.5 inches from the off (straight up/center position) toward the hot side and 2.5 inches toward the cold side. Recommend you try positioning the handle in the middle (front) of the faucet. We had it on the right side and changed it to the front where we find it much more convenient and accessible to either hand. That would, of course, also eliminate any back wall clearance concerns you might have. Good Luck.

What does this mean. The drain has to be at least 12" from the back wall? If so is this from the center of the pipe? Thanks

I estimate 6" to the countertop, another 9" to the bottom of our large sink. Now that you mention it, there is minor splash at counter level. I wipe down the counter often anyway, and would never have noticed were it not mentioned. I don't know whether my prior faucet splashed. With its added reach and height, this faucet covers my sink very well, so that I use the much handier pullout less often than I did with my previous horizontal pullout. If you have a large sink, this is a great choice!

there is a lip on the back of the top so a little clearance is required or it would strike the wall and not open completely; allow for about 4-5 inches!

You don't need any clearance behind the handle. Water temperature is changed by pulling the handle forward and it stops in the position shown in the online picture, parallel to the faucet itself.

Yes, cold water control goes forward. At most, the handle may go about 1 cm behind the faucet. We have backsplash and had the same concerns but there is plenty of clearance (1 3/4 inches) between backsplash and base of faucet.
