Kitchen is the heart of a home so a faucet is an important thing in each kitchen.

Whether you’re renovating a kitchen or just looking for an upgrade, please consider what will be the next faucet suitable for you.

Here are some practical factors for you to pick a faucet as suggestion.

a. Mounting place

Before you choose a faucet, you need to know where your faucet is mounted: deck or wall.

 

b. Faucet holes

If you don’t want to do a massive renovation, the faucet holes in your existing counter space and sink will be the base for you to choose a suitable faucet. There are types of one hole, two hole, three hole, four hole in the market (see photo). The sink with one hole is the commonest type in people’s daily life.

c. Kitchen Faucet Handles

Please think how many handles you are used to turn on/off your faucet.

A single handle is easier to use which could also control both hot and cold temperatures. That is more convenient and will save time for cleaning one more handle.

Two-handle faucets have a stylish symmetry (although they don’t have to be).But it will help you get rid of trouble of controlling temperature and water flow together in your messy kitchen life.

Two-handle faucets with a fresh filtered water handle have the same function of two-handle faucets but people could get drinking water from tap directly. One of our customers said he spent $10 a week to buy filtered water. With filter function, you will save a lot.

d. The height of faucet.

Please keep in mind of your habits at the kitchen sink and layout of you kitchen.

Do you usually use a lot of large spots and need more workspace? Does the lower tap will limit enough clearance when you washing. If so, a faucet with high arc will be an ideal choice for you. Please see the following photo.

Or do you seldom use your kitchen? Or do you often use small dishes? Or does the high arc faucet will destroy the beautiful scenery of you kitchen window. If yes, a low arc faucet will be more suitable for you but still provides the power you need.

e. Different kinds of sprayer

Pull down

As its names shows, this faucet could be pulled down for extended reach and more flexibility. When finished, you could just put it back for original look.

Pull out

Similar functions to pull down faucet, but it could reach different directions when pull out such as corners of sink not just down.

Side Sprayer

While the side sprayer requires an extra hole, it’s a great addition to your modern faucet. It’s helpful for cleaning and giving you that extra reach while leaving your main faucet alone.

Hope these points will help you choose the faucet you like and make your life more comfortable.
