Drill the Faucet Hole (if necessary)
The faucet can be installed through a standard faucet hole or spray hose
hole in your sink, if one is available. If no hole is available, use the following
instructions to drill a faucet hole. If a faucet hole is already available, skip to
section Connect the Faucet (pg 6).
1. Select and mark the faucet mounting spot on the sink.
a. Conrm that there are no reinforcing ribs under the desired faucet
location.
b. If you have an extra hole in your sink for a spray hose, you may also
choose to disconnect the spray hose and use that existing hole for
the CB-VOC faucet.
2. Use the hammer to gently tap the center punch on
the sink location where the hole is to be drilled. This
creates an indentation to mark the drilling location.
3. If you have a porcelain, ceramic, or cast acrylic sink:
CAUTION: Porcelain, ceramic, and cast acrylic
surface materials are extremely hard and can easily
crack or chip. Use extreme caution when drilling. CB
Tech is not responsible for any damages resulting
from faucet installation.
a. Use the 1/2” carbide-tipped masonry drill bit to grind away a small
section of sink veneer down to the metal, clearing enough space to
allow drilling without damaging the rest of the sink surface veneer.
b. Carefully use the 7/16” high-speed steel drill bit to completely drill a
hole through the metal sink.
CAUTION: Do not allow the drill bit to “grab” the sink veneer, as this will
damage the surface.
4. If you have a stainless steel or metal sink:
a. Use the 1/8” high-speed drill bit to
drill a pilot hole.
b. Use the 7/16” high-speed drill bit to
completely drill a hole through the
metal sink.

5. If you have a granite countertop:
CAUTION: Granite surface materials are extremely hard and can
easily crack or chip. Use extreme caution when drilling. CB Tech is not
responsible for any damages resulting from faucet installation.
a. Place a towel or basin under the sink, directly under the location of
the intended faucet hole.
b. Using a snake of plumbers putty, form a circular “dam” around
the location of the intended faucet hole. Make the dam 5” in
diameter and 3/4” tall.
c. Fill the dam with cool tap water. The water will keep the drill bit from
overheating.
d. Use the 1/2” granite drill bit to drill the hole. Slowly grind away the
granite material.
Connect the Faucet
Proceed to the instructions for your faucet type:
1. For a standard faucet, proceed to section Installing the Standard
Faucet (Pg 6).
2. For a capacity-monitored faucet, proceed to section Installing the
Capacity Monitor Faucet (Pg 8).
Installing the Standard Faucet
NOTE: The blue plastic tubing is attached to the faucet.
1. From the sink / countertop:
a. Place the larger soft black rubber washer over the faucet hole.
b. Place the cover plate on top of the large washer.
c. Place the smaller soft black rubber washer on top of the cover plate.
d. Place the faucet base over the smaller soft black rubber washer
and atop the cover plate.
2. From under the sink:
a. Slide the hard plastic black washer (with the smaller side up)
upward over the blue tubing.
b. Slide the lock washer upward, below the hard plastic washer.
c. Slide the wing nut upward, below the lock washer.
