Installing a brass basin faucet requires a few tools and some basic plumbing knowledge. Here are the steps you can follow to install a brass basin faucet:
Gather the tools and materials you will need. You will need a basin wrench, adjustable wrench, plumber's putty or silicone caulk, Teflon tape, a bucket, and the new brass basin faucet.
Turn off the water supply valves under the sink. Turn on the faucet to drain any remaining water in the pipes.
Remove the old faucet. Use the basin wrench to loosen the nuts connecting the faucet to the sink. Once you have removed the nuts, lift the old faucet out of the sink.
Clean the sink. Use a rag to clean any debris or old putty from the sink.
Install the new faucet. Apply plumber's putty or silicone caulk around the base of the new faucet. Insert the faucet into the sink's holes and tighten the nuts using the basin wrench and adjustable wrench. Be careful not to overtighten and damage the sink.
Connect the water supply lines. Wrap Teflon tape around the threads of the supply lines and connect them to the faucet. Tighten the connections with an adjustable wrench.
Turn on the water supply valves and check for leaks. Turn on the water supply valves and check for any leaks around the faucet or supply lines. If you notice any leaks, tighten the connections or reapply putty/caulk as needed.
Enjoy your new brass basin faucet. Once you have confirmed there are no leaks, turn on the faucet and enjoy your new brass basin faucet.
