Hi Kerri
The Aquasana Countertop will fit 99% of Australian homes - to install the Aquasana as a Countertop, that is on the benchtop, is incredibly easy and there are no costs involved provided you don’t have a designer tap!
The problem with designer taps is that sometimes the end of the tap is an unusual shape or there’s no thread. In this case you would either need to replace the designer tap with a standard tap or install the Aquasana Countertop under the sink using the Undersink Conversion Kit. We have 3 Undersink models to choose from, click here to view
To install the Aquasana Countertop, you just need to unscrew the very end of your flickmixer or tap with a shifting spanner. This will reveal the thread on your actual tap and after you remove the little filter from inside your tap, you can just screw the Aquasana tap divertor straight on.
To install the Countertop under the sink, a plumber or handyperson needs to drill a hole in the benchtop and depending on your setup under the sink, he/she may need to cut the pipe to install the ‘t’ piece supplied with the Undersink Conversion Kit.
Underbench installation takes between 1/2 - 1 hour’s labour charge, unfortunately we don’t have a plumber referral service up and running as yet, but you could price check in your area or contact your local plumber supply shop such as Tradelink for a good referral.
