WHAT ARE SINK FAUCETS? CHOOSING A SUITABLE FAUCET. ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES
Faucets are a complex mechanism that mixes hot and cold water and determines the pressure. They are technologically advanced, have various useful functions and have become part of the modern interior. Leading manufacturers are constantly introducing innovations and modernizing their products for the convenience of consumers. Thus, the variety increases with each passing day and the choice becomes more complicated. However, the right solution is a guarantee of comfort, hygiene and aesthetics.
The main factors that influence the choice of mixer are:
- purpose (for bathroom or kitchen)
- type of installation
- reliability
- functionality
- aesthetics
Individual models differ in quality, design, construction and functionality.
The most common are faucets with two handles for adjusting hot and cold water (also called two-lever faucets). The advantages of this type of faucet are that they can be placed at a height of your choice and have a rotating spout that can be replaced. Of course, they also have disadvantages such as difficult installation and slower adjustment of the water temperature you want.
Another widespread type is the single-lever mixers (single-lever mixers). They are gaining more and more popularity for several reasons - they are sensitive when adjusting the water temperature and pressure, the desired temperature is reached much faster, which makes them more economical, they offer a stylish and beautiful design, suitable for any stylish kitchen. Both two-lever mixers and single-lever mixers have disadvantages. Some single-lever mixers do not have a removable spout, which limits control over the water jet, and the spout in some cases cannot be replaced. However, single-lever mixers are preferred by a very large percentage of consumers.
TYPES OF KITCHEN FAUCETS DEPENDING ON THE MOUNTING METHOD
Faucets are mainly divided into two types - floor-standing and wall-mounted.
Floor-standing kitchen faucets have a number of advantages. They are installed incredibly quickly and easily, without the need for drilling. They provide a feeling of more space around the kitchen sink. Floor-standing faucets offer a quieter flow of water compared to wall-mounted ones. They provide the necessary convenience in use and are relatively easy to clean and maintain. They are extremely economical, as they do not consume a significant amount of water, which is mainly explained by the fact that the full flow of the faucet is used relatively rarely. The movement of the handle allows for an easy and smooth grip, which undoubtedly provides an unexpected and irreplaceable comfort in use.
Unlike floor-standing faucets, all wall-mounted models have a swivel spout, regardless of whether they are single-lever or double-lever. When it comes to free space for the hands and the convenience of using a faucet, wall-mounted faucets are the ones that offer the option of choosing the installation height and spout length.
In the Kitchen Faucets product group you will find a wide variety of faucets from proven brands such as VIDIMA, INTER CERAMIC, FORMA VITA, GROHE, NOVASERVIS, etc. Most of the faucets come complete with flexible connections.
