I am replacing a single handle kitchen faucet with a dual handle but there is only one supply line. Is there something special I need to do?

there is only one supply line. On your one handled valve you have two inlet connections. N One hot and the other cold. N How many shutoff valves you have under the sink in the cabinet? Back to you, Tom

Hi big

In the sink cabinet, how many shut off valves do you have coming out of wall? There should be 2(1 hot and 1 cold). U should have a line going from each valve to the faucet.

If this is not your setup ,please give more detail of what you see under sink in cabinet.

I only see one shutoff. It looks like your standard round main shutoff valve vs the typical chrome shutoffs.

Do you get hot and cold water, or do you get cold or hot only?

If you have both hot and cold you just got to have two supplies feeding the faucet, Can you take a picture? Back to you. Tom
