It could get a little close, depending on style selected.
I can't remember if there's a charge. Tammy did say that they prefer not to use the weight on the underside of the sprayer hose that helps pull the sprayer back in, and that's been fine.

We were just told by ETI that there are three holes and we need to have a deck to cover the other holes. So they only drilled one hole in yours?

That doesn't sound right to me. If you let them know to cut only a single faucet hole when you submit your build sheet, they'll do it.

Escape is telling us that we need to have a deck to cover the holes which are "in the sink deck." Their faucets that we see are not in the sinks so don't know what they mean by that except holes in the counter behind the sink. Will have to ask again about it.

Most single hole faucets that you buy will come with what is called an escutcheon. It is basically a rectangular plate in a matching finish that covers the two holes you don't use. If the sink has only one hole, you don't use the escutcheon. Loren

If you're going with the stock sink, that makes even less sense. Our stock sink doesn't have a faucet deck. It's separated.

Yes, on photos, we see the faucets are separated from the sink no matter which sink. We are getting stainless steel. The faucet we want has one hole.

There is no escutcheon coming with this one that I have found. The Escape faucets I see, however, are completely separate from the sink.

We supplied ETI with a single hole, pull-out sprayer faucet and Tammy said they would use bungee cord instead of the weight. But when we picked up our 21, the weight was installed. I didn't ask...

The sink is a two hole design, but the stainless steel hole cover is hardly noticeable, and we like having the faucet offset to the left and the control on the right. Works well for us.

We are getting the supplied stainless steel sink, at least, so far. Chris R's round sink is apparently too big. Saw someone's smaller round sink but we have already spent around $150 on shipping items up to ETI and don't think we will pay a bundle to ship a sink up there. Have not found the smaller round one in Canada. Yours is very nice. So is the faucet.

Ours has one hole that was cut in the Formica about 3/8 inch behind the ETI furnished stainless sink. No cover of any kind was used. Faucet "tower" is probably 2 inches plus, in diameter.
Still haven't posted my first picture. I'll get a lesson at the rally.

Do you have photos on your computer? You hit the reply. Write a word or two. Go down and hit Manage Attachments. Then hit to Choose one. Then probably hit for an Existing one. Pick the photo. Upload it. Close window and go back to the other page. You can review what you have done. That should be close anyway.

I am supposing that your build sheet also said single hole faucet as someone else's did.
Thanks. I'll talk to them again.

As far as I know, the window over the sink on a 21' is a slider back and forth. Someone said theirs on a 19' has an awning opening on the lower part. Did anyone with a 21' get that?

cpaharley2008 · 05-26-2015, 02:43 AM

Alan,
that is a nice sink set up. The only complaint I have with my Escape is the water on the counter caused by turning the faucets on and off, ETI used to offer awning windows, I had them on my 2012 19 foot, but went with a new supplier with sliders the next year, progress they call it.

The 21 sink window is a slider because it's larger. The awning window in the 19 is smaller, and only the smaller window is available with the awning opening. I suppose you could get the smaller window if you asked, but the larger window would give you more light, and you could leave it open in wet weather as long as your trailer awning is open.

Thanks, Robert. I wonder if anyone with a 21' asked for the one for the 19'. So I guess the awning one is like one of those small ones we had.

Does anyone have the flooring document they are now having people sign? We are told that that is for those having their own flooring installed.

No flooring document to sign. Expected delivery of our trailer is October 14.

To follow up, Reace confirmed to someone that a single hole faucet can be installed and no deck is required. They have noted single lever/hole on our build sheet. Thank you to those who responded about that because everyone at Escape does not know all of these things.

There is a flooring document to sign for those who have their own flooring put in by Escape. It says that they are not responsible for damaging your flooring during the build. Apparently, their flooring is easier to repair than some others.
