Cabinet Installation Foot Pedal

Cabinet Installation Foot Pedal

02

3.25" Minimum Toe Kick Height

Measuring from the base of the vertical toe kick face to where it intersects with the cabinet base overhang.

Power Outlet

03

120V AC Power Outlet (un-switched)

Both the Principle and STEP systems require one open socket of a standard 120V AC power outlet.

Many outlets under the kitchen sink have one of the two outlet sockets linked to a switch which activates a garbage disposal.  The other socket is often available and un-switched.

To test the outlets under your sink, simply plug in a compatible electronic appliance and see if it powers on (while the switch linked to a garbage disposal is in the off position).

FAQ

Q:  Should the engine box (control box) make noise when I press and release the foot pedal?

​A:  Yes, the engine box will make a little noise when the system is activated.  The noise can be minimized by mounting the box towards the back of the cabinet.

If you have questions, we have answers.

Q:  Does the engine box need to be mounted to the cabinet?

​A:  No, the engine box does not need to be mounted.  However, we recommend it is mounted to the cabinet wall under the sink to keep it up and out of the way.

Q:  Can I connect my STEP system to an electronic touch or sensor style kitchen faucet?

​A:  Yes, it is possible to connect the STEP System to an electronic touch or sensor style faucet but we don't recommend it.

Q:  What are the minimum installation requirements for the Principle or STEP Systems?

​A:  You will need a minimum toe kick height of 3.25" (83mm) and a minimum to kick depth of 2" (51mm).  You will also need a standard un-switched 120V power outlet within 6ft of the engine box mounting location.  For more details see the Minimum Installation Requirements above.

Q:  Can I add a water filtration system to my STEP or Principle Faucet System?

​A:  Yes, you can add a water filtration system inline either before or after the engine box.  You may need to check with your local plumbing professional or hardware store for additional hose connections.  You can also call our support line for help at (888) 293-2203.  We'll do our best to help you get it figured out.

Q:  I do not have a toe kick space below my kitchen sink.  Will I be able attach the foot pedal to the sink cabinet?

​A:  Unfortunately, no.  You must meet the minimum installation height and depth to be able to install the foot pedal.

Q:  I do not have a power outlet under my sink.  Do you offer a battery powered option?

​A:  No, at this time we don't have a battery powered option.  This is in development and planned for future models.  We recommend contacting your local professional electrician to see what your options may be.

Q:  If the power goes out, will I be able to use water at my sink?

​A:  Yes! If you have installed one of our Principle Kitchen Faucet Systems at your sink, you will be able to access water by using the hand operated lever whether or not there is power to the system.  The foot pedal will not activate water flow.  If you have installed one of our STEP2 Foot Pedal Adaptor Systems, simply activate the built-in bypass valve system.  This will allow water to be controlled by the faucets hand levers in the event of a power outage.
