Brass and Stainless Steel Taps: Properties, Advantages, and Considerations

Stainless steel and brass are both popular materials used in the construction of taps and plumbing fixtures. A close understanding of the various properties can enable you to decide on the most suitable piece! 

Stainless steel sink taps are known for their alloy of iron and chromium among other elements that enable them to project strength, durability, and resistance to corrosion, tarnishing, and rust. This property makes the tap capable of withstanding heavy use, making it the perfect metal for your kitchen and bathroom tapware. Cleaning is easy where stainless steel being non-porous, stands out as a hygienic choice for plumbing fixtures.

Brass modern taps consist primarily of an alloy of copper and zinc which project excellent durability, machinability, and an attractive appearance. This selection is popular as it is comparatively easy to work with, meaning it offers a wider range of detailing and intricate designs in tap construction. Natural antimicrobial properties make these taps ideal for daily use in the kitchen as they can help inhibit the growth of bacteria on the surface of fixtures. Compared to stainless steel, brass requires a little more effort for maintenance or occasional polishing to maintain its appearance and prevent tarnishing.

Ultimately, the choice between stainless steel and brass for taps and plumbing fixtures depends on factors such as aesthetic preferences, budget, durability requirements, and the specific application or environment in which the fixtures will be installed! 

Choosing the Right Finish: Considerations for Tap Selection and Interior Design

Whether you want to invite a warm tone, a subtle satin-like touch or a glossy, reflective charm, our assortment of gold taps offers a diverse selection to suit best with the vision you have for your home! A brushed gold kitchen tap features a textured finish that gives a soft, matt appearance. This finish is achieved by lightly brushing the surface to create a consistent texture and hue. Inviting a warm tone, this selection with its grooves or parallel lines flaunts not only aesthetic appeal but also makes them highly durable against fingerprints and water spots.

Bronze sink taps have a darker and richer hue compared to the brushed brass series, offering a timeless and classic look that adds character to any space. Known for its rustic and vintage-inspired charm, these taps invite an equal balance of modern sophistication that meets longevity. Polished finishes create a shiny and reflective surface that adds a touch of glamour. 

Elevating overall aesthetics, these finishes feature a mirror-like appeal that makes the space visually pleasing. However, they may require more maintenance to keep them looking their best and are often considered a premium option. The two-tone taps like this White & Gold Pull-Out Spray Kitchen Tap create a visual contrast while offering versatility in design, allowing for coordination with various colour schemes and decor styles.

Understanding Tap Components: Handles and Spouts

Handles and spouts are determining factors of taps and play a drastic role in providing accessibility for daily use while also contributing to the overall look and charm. From single to dual lever designs, the round levers provide easy intuitive operation to balance temperature and pressure without affecting flow. Single handles control both flow and temperature, offering convenience and comfort by allowing users to adjust settings with a one-hand operation. With dual handles, users can regulate hot and cold water with separate handles that work independently.

Deck mounted kitchen taps from our collection are designed in two popular styles- the curved, elegantly bent swan neck, L-shaped and swivel spouts. These are modelled to provide ample space and accessibility to make your daily chores a breeze while featuring quick mounting and low maintenance. Compatible with both one and two-bowl sinks, swivel spouts have a rotating base that allows the tap to swivel from side to side. This feature enhances manoeuvrability and convenience, allowing users to direct the water flow precisely where needed.

Understanding Pull Out Taps: A groundbreaking innovation in the world of kitchen modifications and tapware is the kitchen tap with pull out spray. These designs feature a detachable spray head that can be pulled out or down from the tap. Providing two modes for smooth functionality, the spray mode delivers water in a wide, dispersed pattern through a specialised spray head attached to the tap. 

The spray head typically features multiple nozzles or jets that allow the water flow to break up into smaller droplets, creating a powerful and efficient spray pattern. Stream mode provides water in a steady, concentrated flow without dispersing or splashing. This mode is achieved by controlling the flow of water through the tap aerator, which regulates the size and shape of the water stream.

Maximum comfort in use and accessibility to make your everyday routine is provided by the selection of gold taps with pull out spray. This design features a retractable spray head that is attached to a flexible hose that allows users to extend and manoeuvre the spray head beyond the sink. Make your everyday chore a convenient task with the help of the ultra-flexible spray that can be twisted and turned to cover a wider area!

Crucial Components of a Functional Kitchen: Kitchen Sink Wastes

Kitchen sink wastes are vital in ensuring wastewater drains properly without clogging or flooding the basin area, drastically boosting the workability of your selection of kitchen taps. The basket strainer (available individually or in combination sets) is a removable component that sits inside the drain outlet to catch solid debris and prevent it from entering the drainage system. Typically designed with a 90mm dimension, it has a versatile round structure and suits perfectly with all standard basin systems. An overflow pipe connects the basket strainer to the drainage system, allowing water and waste disposal.

The trap forms another crucial part of this system and retains a small amount of water to prevent sewer gases from entering the kitchen. It also collects debris and prevents clogs from forming further down the drainage system. Proper maintenance of kitchen sink wastes and drainage is essential to prevent clogs, odours, and other plumbing issues. Regular cleaning of the basket strainer and P-trap to remove debris, as well as occasional flushing of the drain with hot water, can help keep the drainage system clear and free-flowing.
