What is the difference between single handle and dual handle faucets?

The difference point between single handle and dual handle faucet is:
1.Single-handle faucet: It refers to the introduction of cold and hot water from two pipe holes, and the outlet water flows from a water nozzle. Its water temperature is controlled by a handle left and right. Generally the left is hot water and the right is cold water. This kind of valve is actually a commonly used hot and cold water mixing valve.

How to install the dual handle basin faucet?
First, turn off the water gate, and then look at the type of faucet at home. Some are twisted under the washbasin, so you have to twist the screws first. One of the more ancient ones is directly twisted. The beginning of the faucet will do.
1. The interface is rusty and difficult to remove: When the faucet in the bathroom is disassembled, at least the connection at the inlet pipe is easily separated.

2. Use a saw to cut off the faucet above the table: If you drip oil at the interface and twist it hard, the interface is still moving, you can only use the saw to remove it. The kitchen countertop is not like the bathroom countertop. If you can’t remove it, you can only saw off the faucet above the countertop so that the faucet is separated from the countertop.
