Just installed a pedestal from Kohler the Memoirs Sately model 2345-8. The faucet I installed was a Moen Caldwell CA84440. The drain leaks from around the threads where the nut tightens the drain flange. I did the job twice and still leaks. Finally, I thought about the drain hole in the sink.
The mfg says the hole is 1-3/4" in the sink. Called the faucet people and they said the one in the kit was for a 1-1/4 drain hole. Kohlers solution is to buy their drain asy. Which I do not have a problem with. But, when the lady on the phone told me the dimensions, I thought she said the drain asy she recommended has actually a diameter of 1.31". That seems a bit off of the 1-3/4" hole I have in the sink.
Now to my question. How is the sizing determined? I found a drain asy on line that said it was for a 1-3/4" hole size but there were no sizes listed. Is the diameter just shy of that. What is the actual size? I have not really shopped around at the stores, because I do not know what I am looking for. I suppose any drain kit with a larger diameter then the one in there might work. Please any help appreciated.
Thanks,
J
