Stainless Steel Touch-Free Faucet for Busy Kitchen Workflows
The Karran Chantilly is a touchless single-handle pull-down sprayer kitchen faucet in Stainless Steel, built for kitchens where clean, no-contact operation makes a real difference. A motion sensor starts and stops water with a wave of the hand while the single lever stays available for manual flow and temperature control.
Key Features
• Touch-free motion sensor starts and stops water without touching the faucet, keeping hands clean during messy tasks.
• Single lever control provides manual adjustment of flow and temperature alongside the sensor.
• Pull-down spray head delivers flexible reach into the sink bowl on a retractable hose.
• Single-hole mounting installs through one deck or countertop drilling.
• Stainless Steel finish with a durable PVD application for lasting appearance.
• Lead-free brass construction for the faucet body.
Where the Chantilly Works Hardest
Touch-free operation changes the rhythm of a working kitchen. Rinsing produce, handling raw proteins, or washing up mid-project no longer means turning a handle with a messy hand or a forearm. The sensor activates flow on demand and cuts it off just as quickly, so water runs only when it is needed. The pull-down spray head adds directional reach for rinsing deep bowls, filling pots away from center, and clearing the basin after a meal. For cabinetmakers and shop owners with a sink station in the workspace, this kind of control keeps the faucet cleaner between uses without adding steps to the routine.
Construction and Finish Details
The Chantilly's body is lead-free brass, the stated material across Karran's kitchen faucet line. The Stainless Steel finish is applied by PVD, a process that bonds the surface layer rather than plating it over a base coat. Single-hole mounting means the faucet fits sinks and countertops drilled for one hole, with mounting hardware and hot and cold water lines included per Karran's specification. The ceramic cartridge inside the valve body is rated by the manufacturer to 1.5 million cycles, and the pull-down hose is nylon braided with a color matched to the finish.
Who This Faucet Is For
The Chantilly in Stainless Steel suits kitchens where hygiene and efficiency share equal priority. Designers spec it into modern kitchens where brushed steel coordinates with appliances and sink bowls. Cabinet shops with a break room or wash station get the hands-free convenience that keeps a shared faucet cleaner across a full crew. Homeowners remodeling a high-use kitchen find that the sensor adds a practical layer without complicating the faucet's daily operation. The Stainless Steel finish coordinates directly with Karran's stainless sink line and the optional SD25 or SD35 soap dispensers ordered separately.
Does the sensor override the lever, or do both operate independently?
Both work independently. The motion sensor starts and stops flow with a wave, while the single lever sets flow rate and water temperature. You can use either one without affecting the other's settings.
Is a soap dispenser included with this faucet?
No. The Chantilly ships with mounting hardware and hot and cold water lines. A coordinating soap dispenser, the SD25 or SD35, is sold separately and is available in a matching Stainless Steel finish.
How many holes does this faucet require?
One. The Chantilly mounts through a single hole in the sink deck or countertop. If your existing sink has additional holes, a compatible deck plate covers them, though one is not included in the box.
Will this faucet coordinate with a Karran stainless steel sink?
The Stainless Steel finish is the natural pairing for Karran's stainless sink line. Finish coordination across faucet, sink, and dispenser is a common reason buyers choose this color in the Chantilly family.
One Faucet That Handles the Whole Shift
