What is the minimum clearance between the faucet and the backsplash needed in order for the handle to have a full range of motion?

We have 11/16 clearance between the wall and the base plate for faucet. There is no problem using the valve handle

I have 4 inches between faucet an back splash. The handle goes about half way. I would say 3 inches from faucet to be safe.

My backsplash is exactly 4" from the handle when said handle is on full hot water mode, (which also means when the handle is moved toward the backsplash). Of course the distance of your sink faucet holes to the wall (backsplash) are predetermined by how close/far the sink is set to the wall/backsplase. I wouldn't worry about this issue because your sink will always be set a comfortable distance from the wall for this faucet to operate.

You can drill your hole as close as 2" on center from the backsplash and that gives plenty of room. The top of the handle is about 8" above the countertop so you will clear the height of the backsplash for finger room. The handle does not go back any farther than the base in its all the way back position. I love this faucet, best I've ever owned!!

mine measures 2 1/2" to center with plenty of room, but I don't think it will be an issue as the handle does not go back farther than the width of the base plate of the fixture.

from the back edge of the faucet where it meets the countertop, about 3/4". From the center of the faucet hole, about 2". That gives the handle about 1/4" of clearance from the backsplash in the full hot position.

My Moen faucet was put as close to the backsplash as possible and the handle rotates left and right and forward for use, not so much backward or away from the sink.

No idea. Idea. I just looked at mine. The whole goose-neck part could spin 360 degrees if it were mounted on an island prep sink for instance with no back splash - but not sure that would ever be something I would do. THe spout part is about 9.5" above the countertop if you rotate it beyond the sink to situate it above the countertop (I just measured it). The 2 3/4 you have will not interfere with this faucet pivoting 180 degrees. I check the operation of the water handle too. Mine rotates toward the front of the sink (to turn water on), not back toward the backsplash. Hope this helps. No idea. Idea. I just looked at mine.

Very little clearance is needed, as in the picture, the handle is almost parallel to the gooseneck when it is in hot position.P.S. we love this faucet.

Back splash clearance shouldn't be a problem if the faucet set up as shown with the valve in the right side. When the valve handle is in the vertical position, 12 o'clock, it is set for cold water and cannot move back to say the 3 o'clock position. It can only move forward to the 9 o'clock position which is for hot water. To turn the water on the valve handle is moved horizontally. Base to the top of the handle is 9". We still like the faucet a lot. I hope this helps.

Mine is 3 1/2" on center so @ 3/4" should be fine for the arm itself to move freely. The handle only moves toward you or to the right of you. It does not move back toward the back splash. Hope this helps.

If you're asking about the clearance needed behind the faucet above the countertop: When I pull up the drain lever on mine to its highest point (the point at which it sticks out most, since it's angled slightly backwards), the rear edge of the lever sticks out about 1 3/8" behind the base of the faucet. I've got a single-hole mount without the extra 3-hole escutcheon plate. When the lever is pushed all the way down, it extends about 5/8" behind the base.

Sorry I am on vacation with no access to the faucet, but because it would have been very close to backsplash, we mounted on 45 deg. offset angle.

Yes it'll fit I recommend the vertical faucet to be mounted off one of the corners of the sink so it doesn't take space between the sink and the backsplash where you want to keep a clearance of about 1-3/4 so you can still go around the sink and clean /dry it. Good luck!

The handle extends 2 3/4 inches behind the center line of the faucet base. The faucet base can be rotated on its axis to move the handle forward a little as I had to do to clear the backsplash. This does affect the throw of the faucet a little but wasn't significant for the 5-10 degrees I had to rotate it.

The handle is approximately 3 inches up from the base of the faucet. The handle itself is 3 inches long.

That sounds a little tight, however the square base on the faucet itself is only about 1.5" x 1.5". What you need to consider is if you have a backsplash behind the faucet...it could limit the range of motion on the handle, which in addition to to pivoting out/away from the handle to turn on the water also rotates front to back for hot/cold settings.

We had to mount ours at an angle to keep the handle from hitting the back splash. One interesting thing we noted was that we're a right-hand favoring family but always tended to use our left hand when turning on our old faucet so we mounted the faucet with the handle on the left-hand side. I love this faucet by the way.

sorry, but I am not atnmy home where this faucet is located so I cannot measure it. I LOVE the faucet and would guess it could be very close since the handle straight up is as far as it goes back toward what would be the backsplash. Pulling forward changes the temp. To open it is a matter of pushing the handle away from the base support.

Approx. 8 1/2 " at the on/off lever in the off position. Approx. 6 " top of the curve of the faucet itself

The handle extends about 1.5" behind the rear of the faucet (2.5" from faucet center) when it's in the "hot water" position. I would recommend having a little extra space so it doesn't touch the wall - I have an extra 1". The faucet turns ALL the way from side to side - it might actually turn 360 degrees, but I can't test it since I have a wall in the way... It's an awesome faucet!

Yes, the faucet handle only moves about 2-3 inches and should work fine. The spray feature pulls down much more.
