Houzer CAT-172-BN – Frequently Asked Questions

1) How much clearance do I need above the sink for a Houzer CAT-172 Catori pull-out faucet?
Plan on 18 inches of height from the deck to the top of the neck on the Catori CAT-172, with a spout reach of 9-1/8 inches from the base. That 18 inch figure is what decides whether it clears a window sill or an upper cabinet over the sink run, so measure the opening above the deck before committing. The handle is a forward-action design, so it swings toward you rather than back, which keeps it off a backsplash sitting tight behind the sink.
2) Will a single handle Houzer CAT-172 fit a sink drilled for a three hole faucet?
The Catori CAT-172 is a single handle faucet, so it needs one hole for the body. On a three hole sink or deck, the two outer holes are left open and get covered with a deck plate or filled with a soap dispenser or air gap. Confirm which of those you want before the sink goes in, because the escutcheon is a separate order item either way.
3) What finishes does the Houzer Catori CAT-172 kitchen faucet come in?
Five finishes on the Catori CAT-172: polished chrome (CAT-172-PC), brushed nickel (CAT-172-BN), brushed nickel fingerprint free (CAT-172-BF), brushed brass (CAT-172-BB), and matte black (CAT-172-MB). For a rental or a multi-family turn where fingerprints on the handle are the recurring complaint, the BF fingerprint free brushed nickel is the one to spec. Order by that finish suffix, since the base CAT-172 number alone does not identify a finish.
4) Is the Houzer CAT-172 faucet body brass or plastic?
Brass is the body material on the Catori CAT-172, with a stainless steel body and spout construction described by Houzer. The sprayhead itself is ABS, which is deliberate: a lightweight head is what lets a pull-out dock cleanly and not drag the hose down over time. For a property manager comparing against a zinc bodied builder faucet, the brass body is the durability difference that matters on a high-traffic kitchen.
5) Is the Houzer CAT-172 pull-out faucet code approved for a commercial kitchen job?
The Catori CAT-172 carries an ICC certification, which is the listing an inspector or a spec writer typically wants to see referenced on a plumbing submittal. It also carries a Prop 65 designation, so if the job is in California the warning requirement applies and should be passed along with the submittal package.
6) Is a pull-out faucet like the Houzer CAT-172 a better choice than a pull-down for a kitchen?
A pull-out like the Catori CAT-172 keeps the spout low, at 9-1/8 inches of reach and 18 inches to the top of the neck, and the head pulls horizontally toward you. That is the one to pick under a window or a low upper cabinet, where a tall gooseneck pull-down will not fit. The trade is basin clearance: a pull-out sits closer to the deck, so filling a tall stockpot in the sink is harder. With 20 plus inches of hose you can pull the head out and fill the pot on the counter instead, which is how most people work around it.
7) Does the Houzer Catori CAT-172 have a spray mode or just a stream?
Three modes on the CAT-172 sprayhead: spray, stream, and sweep. The sweep pattern is the one that earns its keep for rinsing down a sink basin or clearing a sheet pan, since it throws a wider blade of water than a standard spray. Mode switching is at the head, not at the handle.
8) Can you clean the aerator on a Houzer CAT-172 faucet without replacing the sprayhead?
The AeroFlo aerator on the CAT-172 is removable, so hard water scale that cuts the flow comes off with a soak rather than a parts order. That is worth knowing for anyone maintaining faucets across a building on well or hard municipal water, where a non-serviceable aerator turns a five minute clean into a fixture swap.
9) Does the Houzer CAT-172 match other Catori fixtures in a kitchen remodel?
The CAT-172 belongs to Houzer's Catori collection, so it is the faucet to spec when the bar faucet, soap dispenser, or other deck accessories on the job are already Catori and you want the handle shape and finish to read as one set. Matching within the collection is also the safer route on a multi-unit turn, where mixed-series hardware across units becomes a maintenance headache.
