Types of Sanliv Kitchen Faucets

Have you ever seen that Sanliv commercial where a woman tells her designer that she wants him to design her house around a faucet? You may have laughed, and said “Yeah, right! No one can do that!” Now you can – especially in the kitchen. Faucets have been revolutionized to be the “star” of the kitchen. Manufacturers have made kitchen sink faucets stylish and versatile while keeping the needed functionality you demand. There are many different types of kitchen sink faucets to choose from, and you have to pick what is right for you and the style of your kitchen.

Single Handle Kitchen Faucets

Single Handle Kitchen Faucets allow for quick and easy water flow and temperature adjustments with one hand, which is helpful when your hands are occupied. This design requires 1 or more holes depending on layout and styles range from traditional to modern. Most models are available with or without side sprays.

Two Handle Kitchen Faucets

Two Handle Kitchen Faucets provide precise temperature and water flow adjustment, with separate hot and cold controls, utilizing 3 or more holes of a sink or countertop.

Pull-Out Spray Faucets

Pull-Out Kitchen Faucets are a great mix of style and functionality. The faucet head pulls out and with a touch of a button the water pattern switches from regular flow to spray. This can be a big help when washing dishes, or getting those last scraps of dinner down the drain.

Wall-mount Faucets

Wall-Mount Kitchen Sink Faucets are a unique style that require no deck holes since the faucet mounts to the wall above the sink. This design does require water supplies that extend above the countertop in the wall. This is a great option if you’re looking for an antique style kitchen.

Pot Filler Faucets

Are you the cook in the house? Do you hate having to carry heavy pots of water from the sink to the stovetop? Worry no more! Pot Filler Faucets are a “must have” for an avid cook. The pot-filler is a cold-water kitchen faucet, and it is installed in addition to a regular kitchen faucet. It can be mounted on the wall or on a countertop near the stove. This way you can fill the pot while it is already positioned on the stovetop.

Bar Sink/Entertainment/Prep Faucets

Compared to a regular kitchen faucet, bar faucets are simply smaller. They go along with the bar/prep sinks that are also smaller in size. These faucets come in a variety of styles and designs utilizing 1-3 holes, depending on your needs and want for sink accessories. When used in a kitchen they are often matched to the same style as the larger kitchen sink and faucet.

Remember when choosing a faucet, it should not only look great, but it should work well too. Faucets should be drip free for its lifetime with normal use. There are styles and finishes for every kitchen, pick the one that is right for you.

Kitchen Faucets Are Like Jewelry For Your Kitchen

by Craig Thornburrow
Kitchen faucets can really dictate the look and feel of your kitchen. It is like putting on jewelry, it is the last item you add and it can completely set off and highlight everything around it or it can look cheap and gaudy. So when you are choosing the faucet for your kitchen you should take a careful look at what type of atmosphere you are hoping the kitchen will have. Here are some top decorating ideas to help you choose the correct kitchen faucet.

The first thing you will need to decide is what type of finish you would like the faucet to be. Most designing experts will tell you that your choice should highlight one of two aspects of your kitchen. First you may decide to match the appliances you have in your kitchen. For example if you have stainless steel appliances you may want to incorporate a brushed nickel faucet or perhaps you have a pure white kitchen, there are many varieties of white faucets to choose from. The other would be to match any lighting fixtures or the cabinetry hardware. There are many finishes to choose from you can have polished chrome, brass plated, copper (which is gaining popularity), burnished brass, black and some limited special ordered colors such as red or cobalt blue, and the two previously mentioned types, brushed nickel or white.

Once you have decided which type of finish you think will accent your kitchen properly then you need to decide on the practical part, the design of the faucet. There are several types of kitchen faucet designs available. In fact, they even have faucets for your kitchen that come directly out of the wall. Many people are choosing the type of design where the spout has a high arch which is very helpful if you use a lot of large deep pots for your cooking. You can choose a kitchen faucet where the hot and cold water is controlled by either a single or double handle.

Another choice you will need to make is whether you would like to purchase a set that includes a soap dispenser and/or a sprayer. If you would like a sprayer there are two ways to incorporate it. First it can be separate and off to the side of the spout or it can be part of the spout. When it is part of the spout you just pull on the end and the sprayer comes away from the spout. This can be a handy feature as most of these types of sprayers are larger than the ones that stand off to the side.

Once you have decided on the design of the faucet make sure that you have all of the necessary components to attach your kitchen faucet. This may include larger fittings, plumbers tape to help seal the fittings therefore eliminating leaks and a plumbing wrench. When you are looking to incorporate some ambiance into your kitchen, kitchen faucets can add that special finishing touch.
