Kitchen sink faucet

Would you comment on a kitchen sink faucet handle which when it sits with the handle motion toward you as hot and cold away.

I heard that when the faucet is mounted in this position the toward motion of the handle should be cold water, not hot as a safety comment for childen not injuring themselves.

Pic? Regardless, hot is always to left and cold to the right.

Settle this argument: Side faucet controls, IS COLD FRONT OR BACK?

Why is the hot on the LEFT? :slight_smile:

Rumor has it that the inventor of the faucet… Jean-Claude Faucee’ was a southpaw and insisted the Hot on the Left was more appropriate.

No… but…Why’s your toilet handle on the left? :slight_smile: :stuck_out_tongue:

It isn’t. Must be a Florida thing… toilet right handle flush - Google Search

Delta faucet calls it a wall mounted pot filler.

Yes, I always call out the fixture as being plumbed hot & cold reversed. It is a potential burn hazard, especially with children.
