How to choose the right kitchen tap?

Many people find that there are many problems in the house after the renovation, especially for the kitchen tap, which is often used, once a problem occurs, it will cause a lot of trouble, so you must do your homework before purchasing.

If there is a hot water line in the kitchen, a duplex faucet is the best option. In order to meet various needs, most kitchen faucets can now be rotated left and right.

2. By material


The material of kitchen faucet is generally brass, which is the most common pure copper faucet on the market. But due to the characteristics of the kitchen environment, pure copper faucets are not necessarily the best choice. All pure copper faucets have electroplating on the outermost layer, the role of electroplating is to prevent internal corrosion and rust.

There is a lot of fumes in the kitchen, plus the greasy and detergent on your hands when washing dishes, you will often need to clean the faucet.

And now some manufacturers use high-quality 304 stainless steel to make faucets. Compared with pure copper faucets, the faucets made of high-quality stainless steel are lead-free, acid-resistant, alkali-resistant, corrosion-resistant, do not release harmful substances, and do not pollute the tap water.

This is very important for drinking water in the kitchen; and the stainless steel faucet does not require electroplating, is not easy to rust, and has more than twice the hardness and toughness than copper products, so it is very convenient to clean. However, due to the high difficulty of processing stainless steel, the current high-quality stainless steel faucets are usually relatively expensive.


3. The length of the faucet should take into account both sides of the sink


When purchasing, pay attention to the length of the basin and the faucet. If the sink is a double basin, pay attention to the length of the faucet and take into account the sinks on both sides when rotating.


4. With anti-calcification system and anti-backflow system


Calcium deposits in showerheads and self-cleaning systems, and in the same way kitchen faucets accumulate some calcium after years of use. When shopping, pay attention to choosing a faucet with an anti-calcification system, as it can prevent the device from being calcified internally. When all the seals inside the faucet fail, the faucet equipped with the anti-backflow system can still ensure that no backflow pollution accident occurs, and the water quality is clean. Therefore, when purchasing, pay attention to whether the selected faucet has these two functions.
