How to make hose-spray connection with a kitchen or bathroom sink? |
I live in a apartment. Near my kitchen is the parking lot for my car. I want to wash my cars. If you take the aerator off of your kitchen faucet and take it to a good hardware store, they may be able to sell you a hose adapter. Hose adapters exist, but aerators are not always standard. You should get a plumber to cut the cold water line below your sink (and before the sink's cold water shutoff valve), and install a standard hose bib. (The main line to your apartment will need to be shut off while this work is being done.) Then, whenever you want to wash your car, you take the brush end of the hose outside to your car, come back inside and attach the hose to the bib under the sink, and turn the hose bib tap on. Be sure you get permission to have this work done from the apartment manager before you do it. Assuming you have an aerator on your faucet, you can use an adapter such as this to connect the hose to your faucet: For this to work, the faucet must be the type that has a threaded, screw-on nozzle tip. This is more common in Kitchen faucets, to allow removal and cleaning of the filter screen. Remove the threaded tip and bring it to a plumbing supply house. There are many different thread sizes, so you need to bring the tip, to match the thread on your faucet. They will sell you an adapter to convert to garden hose. Be sure to use teflon tape when you screw on the new tip. Just go to a plumbing store and ask for a adaptor to fit ur hose to ur kitchen faucet. Take off the nipple on ur kitchen faucet and use it to compare size to get the correct fit. Should only cost less than ($10) But if the owner see that it might charge u more for rent....lol |
