Hi!  Wondering if anyone has a link to an affordable option to convert a standard hand wash sink to hands free rather than purchasing the entire new sink.

Thanks!

Greetings,

 

You can look for something like this:

 

https://www.amazon.c...d/dp/B07WJ4ZVZP

 

This is one of the lowest, but depending on your budget if you go higher you will have more quality, hot and cold, without batteries even. Search around for what suits you.

I seem to have spent too much time with the electronic "eye" type hands free sink.    I much prefer the knee or foot operated ones.   They just work all the time.  (if it works for sink set up)

I would definitely agree with the physical pedal valves being much more reliable.

 

I think we've all encountered plenty of the light based systems that stop working properly for various reasons and you wave your hands around for a while trying to activate the thing and give up.
