Chris of Silver Cymbal YouTube channel installed an Aquor Water Systems V1+ for convenient outdoor water access on his Mattapoisett, Massachusetts property.

He added the sleek V1+ to his outdoor kitchen unit, connecting his new hose bib to the existing plumbing using PEX.

The outdoor kitchen is equipped with running water that Chris trenched from the house.Outdoor kitchen unit, including a sink.

He selected the V1+ for its visual appeal and the fact that the faucet connector can be removed when not in use. Stainless steel V1+ fresh out of the box.

He started off by removing the back panel of his kitchen unit. Removing the back panel.  Exposed plumbing.
