Choosing a bathroom faucets may be more difficult than you think. Bathroom faucets, believe it or not, come in a wide range of colours, finishes, styles, and sizes. Choosing a vanity sink faucet should be done with care because you’ll be using the same faucet for many years and it should complement the general mood and decor of the space as well as your other bathroom fixtures.
Bridge
Bridge faucets are a great way to merge old-world style with cutting-edge technology. According to The Kitchen, “bridge” refers to the fact that the levers and faucet all branch off of a single component. Instead of three holes in the bathroom countertop, this requires only two.
Bridge faucets are frequently found with undermount sinks. This combination allows you to play with the sink faucet. Bridge faucets are typically fixed to the bathroom countertop, making it easy to clean around the faucet and so maintain your bathroom sink clean and hygienic.
Centre–set
Centre-set bathroom faucets are compatible with three-hole basins. These faucets have a spout as well as two handles, one on each side of the base unit. Some centre-set faucets have two knobs that are placed into a six-inch plate on the bathroom sink.
- Single–handle
Single-handle bathroom faucets, also known as single-lever faucets, are exactly what they sound like: a bathroom faucet with only one handle. Single-handle faucets are another common form of kitchen faucet.
According to The Kitchen, most single-handle sink faucets only require one or two holes. If there are additional holes, some faucets come with a mounting plate to cover them.
- Spread–fit
Spread-fit faucets conceal the connection beneath the vanity sink deck or countertop sink deck. These faucets feature a separate spout and knobs. Typically, the holes for these sink faucets are spaced up to 10 inches apart. These faucets can also be installed in nonstandard combinations. For example, you can place the spout in the back corner and the faucet handles to one side, making tight installations easier. This faucet looks a lot like the centre-set bathroom faucet.
- Wall–mount
Wall-mounted faucets, as opposed to deck-mounted faucets or taps, are attached to the wall rather than the sink or counter. These faucets are available in a variety of styles, sizes, colours, and finishes and extend over the sink.
- Vessel
Any material can be used to create a vessel sink basin. Vessel sinks can be made of fired ceramic, glass, stainless steel, stone, copper, or marble. Glass and ceramic, on the other hand, are the most preferred materials for vessel sinks nowadays. A vessel sink is typically seen in a bathroom rather than a kitchen.
