Bathroom Basin Taps
Basin taps are designed specifically for basins and come in a variety of different styles. When it comes to choosing the right basin tap, knowing a bit about the different types available can help you make the correct decision. These are some of the most popular types of basin taps, each offering their own features and benefits to compliment your space.
Basin Pillar Taps
These traditional style taps are ideal for classic all bathrooms and are for use with a basin with two tap holes. Typically, one tap provides hot water, while the other offers cold. Used separately to control water flow and temperature, the two-tap design brings a retro look to the room. They are available in modern or traditional styles, from cross-head style to modern, sleek bars.
Basin Mixer Taps
A single spout combines hot and cold water, and a single handle allows you to easily control the temperature and water flow. Mixer taps are most popular for modern and minimalist style bathrooms and are for use with a basin with one tap hole. Thermostatic mixer taps, maintain a consistent water temperature, preventing sudden temperature spikes that could lead to scalding or burns. Thermostatic control ensures that the water temperature remains stable, providing additional safety and comfort. This feature is particularly valuable in households with young children or elderly members.
Mini Mono Basin Mixer Taps
A mini mono basin mixer is much the same as a standard basin mixer tap, apart from its smaller stature. With a slightly shorter height and spout length, these taps are perfect for smaller basins and corner sinks and are mostly bought for cloakroom basins with a single tap hole. These compact taps offer easy temperature control and water flow.
Wall-Mounted Basin Taps
For a contemporary and sleek look, wall mounted basin taps are an excellent choice. They save worktop space for things like lotions and soaps and work beautifully with countertop basins, which don't have tap holes. A wall mounted basin tap adds an uncluttered, luxurious air to your space.
Tall Basin Taps
These stunning high rise taps are used with a countertop basin and make a statement in a modern bathroom space and are a beautiful alternative to the wall mounted tap. Although the basin has no tap hole, one must be drilled into the worktop to house the tall tap.
Waterfall Taps
As the name suggests, these taps have an open spout, allowing water to flow into the basin like a natural waterfall. These modern, eyecatching taps are as visual appealing as they are practical and create a statement in bathrooms.
Bathroom Sink Mixer Taps
