Can the Empire Faucets RV Kitchen Faucet w/ Pull-Down Spout Be Installed with the Handle in Front

Question:

Hello Scott answered my question earlier about the EM65CR. Thank you. But I do have one more question. All the pictures I see of this faucet installed has the handle on the right side. Can it be installed with the handle in the front center instead of the side? Not a deal breaker either way, but my old faucet Im replacing had the handle in front and I was just wondering if I could keep it in the same place. Thank you

I do not see any reason why you would not be able to install the Empire Faucets RV Kitchen Faucet w/ Pull-Down Spout # EM65CR with the handle in the front of the faucet.

The way that the faucet installs, it looks like you will be able to rotate it before installing the threaded washer that holds the faucet in place. The only thing to keep in mind is that this faucet does rotate to allow you to spray from just about any angle and putting the handle in front could have a slight impact on the rotation.

I have included an installation video that demonstrates how the faucet installs so you can get a better idea of what I am talking about. The actually installation starts around the 4:25 mark of the video.
