-
Spout: The spout is the main outlet through which water flows. It can come in different shapes and lengths, and some faucets may have a swivel feature for greater flexibility.
-
Handles or Controls: Faucets usually have one or two handles that control the flow of hot and cold water. Single-handle faucets often have a lever that moves in different directions to adjust both temperature and flow, while double-handle faucets have separate controls for hot and cold water.
-
Valves: Valves inside the faucet control the water flow and temperature. Common types include compression valves, ball valves, cartridge valves, and ceramic disc valves, each with its own advantages in terms of durability and ease of use.
-
Aerator: An aerator is a device at the tip of the faucet that mixes air with the water flow. It helps reduce splashing, conserve water, and maintain a steady stream.
-
Finishes: Faucets come in various finishes, such as chrome, stainless steel, brushed nickel, bronze, and more. The finish not only affects the faucet's appearance but also its durability and resistance to corrosion.
-
Mounting Options: Faucets can be mounted in different ways, including deck-mounted (installed on the sink or countertop) or wall-mounted (attached to the wall above the sink).
-
Touchless Technology: Some modern faucets incorporate touchless or sensor technology, allowing users to turn the water on and off with a simple wave of the hand. This feature promotes hygiene by minimizing contact with the faucet handles.
