Is there anything attached to the faucet? Most of them have an aerator and screen.. if so you need to remove that and the python SHOULD screw in where that came from. it's dificult to say if it will fit your faucet.. it's sort of a trial and error thing. You could go to the hardware store and find the adaptor.. like one that comes with the python and see if that fits before you spend the money on the python itself.. much less expensive :)

If you put your finger up the inside of the faucet, does it go up or is there something there like a screen?? :)

because the part you need to screw the python adapter to is taken up by the aerator and screen.. there are threads inside there for the python to screw into :)

So you'd need to remove that piece to attach the python. It can't attach with it there.

You should be able to get ahold of the attachment on the faucet and just unscrew it. I do believe you turn it clockwise.. :)

I'm sure others are going to laugh at this post.. :)

but I can't say if you'll need a tool to get it off.. mine didn't but you may. Yes, it goes back on easily when you need to put it back. If you are 20 feet from the sink then a 25 foot python should be sufficient :)
