Pedestal Basin Taps

When you purchase a pedestal basin, you will not only need to consider the shape and design of the basin itself, but you will also have to consider the type of taps you want to compliment your basin. Taps can be found in a range of different colors, shapes and designs and you can make your bathroom look great simply by choosing the right taps.

Basins with a Single Tap

If you are looking for sleek pedestal basin taps, you might want to consider purchasing a basin with one tap. This tap combines the hot and cold water and you can usually adjust the temperature of the water by turning the handle of the tap from one side to the other.

Basins with Two Taps

Pedestal basin taps are also available in individual hot and cold faucets, although this concept is slightly outdated and it has been replace by one tap in many households around the world. This type of design is more popular in public buildings and business offices.

Choosing the Design of your Taps

The design of your pedestal basin taps will have a big impact on the look and feel of your basin. If you choose a sleek and fashionable basin, you need to ensure that your taps are designed in a similar fashion. If your basin is fashionable and your taps are outdated, they will ruin the entire appearance of your basin and your bathroom.

Modern pedestal basin taps are usually long, sleek and curved, while traditional taps are usually shorter and more practical. Modern bathrooms will usually combine the hot and cold water taps into one, while traditional bathrooms will have a separate tap for the hot and cold water.

Censored Bathroom Taps

Taps that turn on and off by means of a censor have become very popular over the past few years. The censor is placed on the handle of the tap and the water will turn on and off whenever you place your hand in front of the tap. This option is perfect if you are looking to turn your bathroom into a modern and comfortable paradise and it will also allow you to save on water, as it will only turn on when it is in use. This item will cost about $315 from Kohler.

You can purchase pedestal basin taps for around $50 to $400 from Kohler, depending on the type of taps you are looking for. These items are available in traditional designs to modern and minimalist and you will need to decide what kind of look you are trying to achieve before you purchase these items. You will also need to choose the type of material you want your taps to be made from as there are many different types, including:
