Water flow/aerator with these faucets?

13 years ago
Hi- I'm installing this sink in my kids' bathroom. My architect tells me that the faucets (Kohler Cannock) don't have a low-flow aerator kind of thing that one would usually find in a bathroom sink. Is the water flow really strong? Anyone know if it's possible to install an aerator so the kids are not wasting gallons of water per minute?

    The water flows out of these faucets sort of like little shower heads. It's actually kind of nice and doesn't make a big splash or anything. I actually bathe my cats in this sink because of the water flow. Here is a picture to show what it looks like. The water comes out as hard or soft as you want it to.

      Cannock faucets clearly state on the side of the packaging box that they are not safe for drinking water. They are designed for industrial application (hand washing ONLY) and are actually ILLEGAL (or so it says on the box) to be used for drinking water. Definitely don't want those faucets in a kid's bathroom where they're brushing their teeth.

      BLol. I've been trying to save up for the Brockway sink and both of these faucets- quite a chunk in my budget. Now I will look for something else. Thank you for letting everyone know they are not to be used for consumption :)

      Julieannkl, don't worry! You can get very similar faucets from Chicago Faucets that are lead-free. They are a little taller, I think, but are also shiny, not rough metal like the Cannock.

      Just a heads up kohler's cannock faucet is finally lead free and thus you are able to use in a residential setting! just know that theirs is a matte pewter finish while the chicago faucet is a shiny chrome
