How to change a kitchen faucet .

First have the necessary tools. These tools will be named on the outside of whatever kitchen faucet that you've purchased to install. Now if you're like me, then you will want to make this as easy as possible. So there is a tool called FAUCET WRENCH. If you don't already have one, then do yourself a huge favor and buy one. It will make this job much easier because it can get into those very awkward spaces underneath the sink. There's a picture of it in this blog. 
       Now we ready to start. First disconnect the water supply to the sink. Be sure to turn  off both hot and cold water supply. You want to make sure that all the current water is out of both hot and cold water lines. To do this you will need to open up the lines to drain out all the water by simply turning both water knobs. Keep these lines open for about 1 minute. Now disconnect your water supply lines. As a side note, you can use the old supply lines to attach to the new faucet, but as a rule for myself I always replace them with new ones to issue a secure fit(Secure fit means that you will have no leaks when you turn back on the water supply). Now unscrew the plastic nuts that secure the faucet to the base of the sink. Take the old faucet off the sink.
       Make sure to clean the area where the faucet came( that space on the sink). Now place your new faucet in its place on the base of the sink. Secure it to the base of the sink with the plastic nuts that with the new faucet. Once you've tightened down to the sink. You can now attach both of the water supply lines to both the faucet and the hot/cold water supplies. Make sure you've secured them snugly. Now turn on both water supplies. Be sure to run both hot and cold water for a minute or two(this will get all the air out of the water lines). CONGRATULATIONS, you've completed this task of changing the kitchen faucet.
