Does your water faucet have to always be turned on to use this?

Yes, but it only dispenses water once they press the lever. You'd want to have a dedicated hose, and it does take a little training, but it's fun.

Yes, but I recommend not turning it on all the way in case the hose comes disconnected from the fountain like mine did.

Yes this pump is "on demand". I have my pump connected to a washtub and toilet. When you turn on the faucet or flush the toilet the pump turns on to provide water and shuts off automatically when the faucet is turned off or toilet fills

the water stays on as long as something is in front of sensor, and if im cleaning the mirror i sometimes make faucet turn on from moving in front so they are easy to activate-these are installed at a church/daycare and have no issues the connections are like a typical faucet

Yes, it defaults back to stream when turned off. Once you turn on the water and press the spray you must turn the water off to get it back into stream mode.

Yes. I leave mine on at night and it automatically shuts off then the water is low on any setting.

No, you have to use the faucet to turn the water on or off. Nothing on the shower head itself will turn it on or off, just changes the spray pattern.As long as the faucet is close, it should not be a problem. You don't want to leave a kid or a senior with functional problems alone with the spray head.

yes. when you turn off water it will automatically spring back to sink faucet.

No. It will always go back water saving mode after the shower turn off. But it is the only mode I use.

The faucet handle must be in the "on" position for the faucet to function. If the faucet is left running without any other activity, it will shut off after a minute or so as to avoid water use being used unintentionally.The faucet will operate at the last temperature used while running or at the temperature set when turned on thereafter.

No because this model has a pressure switch so it turns off once the tap or valve is closed. I run mine for a washing machine and it runs fine and turns off when needed.

The pre rinse only turns on when you push the handle. There is algal a knob on the end of the main faucet that you can turn to adjust the flow or to turn off the main faucet.

I have to open my faucets all the way to start it. There is a small amount of water in the unit that gets extremely hot all at once and heats the water exiting the unit. When there is enough water exiting the unit to ensure safe operation, it will turn on and do what it was designed to do. If the incoming water is very cold, or the faucet you want to use is far from the unit, you may need to turn it to maximum power (5).

No it does not. If you want to keep on faucet continuously, you would need to purchase a valve and install it yourself.

You can turn on the spray while it is on normal flow, but to switch back to flow from spray you turn off the faucet and then turn it back on. This is because the Grohe faucet has a button instead of a toggle. Because of the design of the handle this doesn't really bother me.

Mine has never turned on automatically and so far it hasn't turned off automatically either however logically you would turn it off when the water is spent.M

no it does not have an on/off switch so you can switch back and forth between ro and tap water you must turn the water off disconnect the unit to switch back and forth I will usually let mine run at night when I don't need to tap water I disconnected during the day so I can go about my business

It mostly only turns on when you've used some hot water. Otherwise, it's off most of the time.
