    The best Wall mount kitchen faucet made

    Chicago faucet. Parts may come from a related supplier in Chicago, but I can't find the number now which I got from the factory office. We have 6 in the building, as well as an ancient shower setup (1920's)

    I also got parts from Fergusson over the years-cartridges, and new spouts.--NBC

    Thanks, Nicholas!!

    But if that's a Chicago, I'll eat my hat.



    The owner sent me the picture and I'll be going out this afternoon to work on it - it's dripping.



    I love Chicago faucets as well and carry a supply of the Zurn ceramic disc cartridges on my truck; both kinds - short and long.  I'll let you know what I come up with.

    Why not just replace it with a Chicago faucet? I know restaurant owners are cheap, but with the time you take identifying it you may as well replace it

    Chicago or somewhere else?

    Chicago faucets were the only ones I could find with the adjustable offset to accommodate the width of our supplies in the 80's. Our handles are different, but the rest looks to be the same.

    Good advice RobG (or is it nick Nolte?).--NBC

    How did

    How did you all figure it out? Nick Nolte by day and Rob G, PHCC by night? I must retreat now to my man cave above Gotham City. Alfred has a cold beer waiting.

    Celebrity Mugshots

    Whenever I look at the weather, there are plenty of other ads on the page, and I think I stumbled onto celebrity mugshots. Lo and behold, there was fellow Nebraskan-NN!--NBC

    Identity found.

    The faucet is made by none other than Pioneer Industries out of Taiwan.

    First choice is

    Chicago is my first choice, followed by Fisher and  T&S Brass. 



    You got something else in mind?
