Elkay LK940LGN08L2H Centerset Laminar Flow Faucet

Product Description

The ELKAY LK940LGN08L2H is an 8-inch centerset deck-mount laminar flow faucet built for commercial and institutional plumbing applications. Constructed from solid brass, it features a gooseneck spout with a swing restrictor pin and two 2-inch lever handles for straightforward operation. A vandal-resistant aerator delivers a flow rate of 1.5 GPM, and the quarter-turn ceramic disc valve provides consistent, reliable shutoff. The faucet meets NSF/ANSI 61 and NSF/ANSI 372 standards for lead-free compliance, making it suitable for facilities where water quality certification is required. Licensed plumbers and commercial maintenance technicians are the primary installers.

This faucet is designed for commercial kitchens, school cafeterias, educational facilities, and other institutional environments where durability and water efficiency are priorities. The 8-inch gooseneck spout provides clearance for filling large containers or pots. Adjustable inlets support installation flexibility across a range of deck configurations, and the dual faucet hole layout allows for straightforward drop-in replacement or new installation in standard centerset setups. Alternative aerator inserts are included to adjust flow rates to 2.2 GPM or 0.5 GPM depending on operational requirements.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and IPC guidelines. Shut off the water supply and depressurize the line before beginning work. Verify deck thickness and inlet spacing match the faucet's adjustable inlet range prior to mounting. Do not overtighten fittings on the brass body, as this can damage threads or the deck surface.
