how much clearance do you need for the handle from the backsplash for krause KPF-2130
1390687
Hi, first of all...this faucet is beautiful! The stainless is a nice quality and we are very happy with our purchase. Our faucet has a clearance of 4" from the center of the base to the backsplash. You want to be able to freely move the handle and keep in mind the cold setting is towards the back.

As an added tip, if you are tight for space, I had the faucet installed so that the handle dial faces FORWARD (i.e. you can see the hot and cold, red/blue dots in front of you). If you do this, then you pull the handle out towards you to turn the water on, then pivot from left to right for temperature adjustment. I still have the 180-ish degree of motion to swivel the unit from side to side. Plus, when you install the handle facing forward, it's much easier to clean spills and a sticky handle too, and you can clearly see which side to turn the handle for hot and cold--great for visiting non-USA guests!

The faucet is installed about 4 1/8 inch (measuring from center of faucet) from the backsplash. With this measurement, the lever is about 1/4 inch from the backsplash when in use.

We have a granite backsplash with a granite windowsill. We do not have much room between the windowsill but there is about an inch between the faucet and the sill. We were amazed at how tightly this faucet fits for its size. It is much bigger than the original faucet that was used when we remodeled. Hands down love this one.

I recommend mounting the handle in the front and not to the left or right side. When mounted in the middle and your hands are wet, water from your hands drip in the sink and not on your counter top. Plus the faucet looks sleeker since the handle is not sticking out from the side.

My faucet is only about an inch from the backsplash but it is okay because the hot water comes out when the handle is straight up, maybe a tad back. For cold water you bring the handle forward. It works very well in a tight area.

I'm not sure. I think it would be wise to take the handle to a hardware store and try to measure it with the store's stock of handles.

The manual doesn't say anything about clearances. This model is not meant to be built-in to cabinetry, recessed or put underneath a counter. Additionally this model is not meant to be used in an enclosed area. While the back of the hit does produce a minimal amount of heat, it still need to vent to an open area.

The handle does not stand up as the picture shows. It lies flat until you lift it up to use as a handle. The height with the handle flat is just under 36 inches. If your clearance is 36 inches, this will fit under your counter.

If you have a rake or shovel that has a 5' handle, the hole for the handle is about 3' above the base (which is about 3'' from the floor). You will have to lift it up to get it out of the holder. Mine is in the barn, so I don't have a problem. If you have a garage with 8' ceilings, you might have to do a little tilting. My long-pole pruner is in the barn, so I don't have to tilt. This is a good product and will answer a lot of storage needs. I highly recommend it.

there is bout 1.5" of clearance at the handles. The mop and swiffer bottoms do touch the wall. I guess that will not damage the wall unless they are wet.Hope this helps.

The handle protrudes from the back of the psu but doesn't interfere with the standard mounting patterns. It should fit but you won't be able to mash your case against the wall (good thing if you ask me)

They recommend about a 6" clearance in the back for ventilation. The sides, I do not believe, have any clearance specifications. You may want to check their tech specs on their website for side clearances, just for confirmation.

I don't remember the distance but I had to drill another hole on the bottom because the new one didn't match the old holes. Doesn't matter because the base at the bottom of the handle will cover it up anyhow. Just be sure to put some good caulking in the old hole just in case of moisture getting in.

You would need 13 1/2" clearance. You could probably squeeze it in 13 1/4", but I wouldn't recommend it.

looking toward the back wall, it is about 7-1/2" from bottom of flange to top of top handle. The main consideration is how much clearance you want from your highest pot to the faucet. You can find all the specs. with demensions on the Danze website

You should have just enough clearance. I measured mine how I think you would use it and it measures about 9-1/4 inches. I would think the main concern would be your pans. You will want to make sure they can fit in that space on their side. I hope this helps.

The back of the upright handle will be approx. 12" off the floor before the brush head starts to lift off the floor. This unit, as a whole, works best on bare floors. Hope that answers your question!

I'm not sure I fully understand your question. The drain lever is behind the faucet body and travels nearly straight up and down. Total travel is about 2 inches but never goes higher than the faucet handle. It extends behind the base about an inch or less, so if your wall or backsplash is that close, things might be tight. Good luck.

We did not use the Kraus...too big. We used the ELKAY ELU 2115...worked perfectly for a 24" cabinet with room to spare to put the faucet anyplace you want it. I used a single hole faucet plus a second hole for a spray

No clearance issues at all. The bar comes pre-dimpled on the underside to clear the raised areas of the intake manifold.
