With a Sureflo faucet you can leave it turned on and use a foot switch and disconnect its built-in switch. Just remember to turn it off if you ever hook up to city water. Can probably do the same with the Delta Six OEM faucet, but the variable flow with the Sureflo is nice.

It is the connection in the switch. I can flip it on/off again and again and about 1 out of 10 times it will come on. I have seen the foot option but I would still have to deal with a faucet some how. Perhaps a hard wire bypassing the switch on the SureFlo? Good ideas though!
