Before You Begin:
What You’ll Need

The first step to prepping your space is to gather the necessary tools for your kitchen sink faucet installation. Most often, you’ll need:

 

  • Adjustable wrench or basin wrench
  • Plumber’s tape (Teflon tape)
  • Bucket and towels
  • New kitchen faucet
  • Flexible supply lines (if not included)
  • Flashlight or headlamp for visibility under sink (optional)
  • Plumber’s putty or silicone sealant (depending on the countertop material)
  • Cleaning cloth or sponge
  • Safety gear: safety gloves and glasses

Consult the product manual that comes with your bathroom sink faucet to see if any other additional tools are required or search KOHLER service parts to find a specific part.
