Problem and solution

Deck hole 2.8 cm - smaller than the required 3.0 cm

After uninstalled the old faucet, about to install the new faucet, I found the hole on my sink deck was too small to install the new faucet. The issue was that my old faucet was cold water pipe input only, the deck hole was 2.8 cm. However the new faucet requires 3.0 cm hole.

It requires 3.0 cm diameter.

old faucet cold input only - new faucet both cold and hot input

Old faucet was cold input only, while the new faucet is with both cold and hot input pipe, so I bought a two way brass diverter. It cost SGD 5.5.
