HOW TO PICK THE BEST TAP FOR YOUR BATHROOM
Taps are a vital component of any bathroom, not just in terms of functionality, but also in terms of aesthetics. They can make or break a bathroom design. With thousands of unique designs available, the sheer variety may be overwhelming, resulting in unsuitable taps being purchased. Try out the following tips on how to identify the best tap for your bathroom.
It is important to know your water pressure
It is important that you select taps that are adequate for the water pressure in your home in order to have a good flow of water from them. If you have a pressure system, your pressure is modest, however, if you have a combined boiler system, your pressure is medium to high. Most single-lever mixers, floor-standing, and wall-mounted taps require high water pressure to function properly. However, taps with two handles and pillar taps may operate adequately with low pressure.
Identify your Tap holes
Your tap holes are a major determinant of the type of tap to buy. So, it is important to check the tap holes created on the basin or wall to determine what type of tap to buy.
Identify what type of tap style you want
The tap style you select has a significant influence on the overall appearance of your bathroom, and exquisite taps may often become focus pieces in and of themselves. If you want to give your old bathroom suite a new lease on life, all you have to do is replace the weary old taps. Make sure your taps are aesthetically complimentary to one another; nothing is worse than a bathroom with mismatched taps.
Consider your convenience while using the taps
Put into consideration how convenient each type of tap will be for you over the years. With this in mind, you will select a tap that is very much convenient for you and the other users of the tap.
Consider your bathroom paint, walls and tiles.
This might look unnecessary, but it is also important to consider the bathroom paints, walls and tiles, while selecting the tap, in other to avoid a mismatched colour of taps.
After putting each of these steps into consideration, there is a higher probability that the best tap for your bathroom will be selected.
