Kitchen Faucets Manufacturers Introduce 4 Features Of Quality Kitchen Faucets

It is best to choose a long-handled faucet in the kitchen because its lever arm is long, the switch is very labor-saving, and when cooking, there is often oil, detergent, etc., and sometimes a bowl to be rinsed. It is very convenient to turn on and off the faucet by lightly lifting the long handle on the back of the hand or the wrist. Below, Kitchen Faucets Manufacturers describes the 4 functions of a quality kitchen faucet:

 

1. The kitchen faucet can be rotated 360°. For ease of use, the kitchen faucet should be taller, and the spout should be long, preferably extending above the drain, and not splashing water. If there is a hot water line in the kitchen, this type of faucet should also be duplex. In order to meet various needs, kitchen faucets can generally be rotated 360°.

 

2. Select the material of stainless steel. The material of the kitchen faucets 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 are electroplated on the outermost layer, and the function of electroplating is to prevent the internal brass from corroding and rusting. 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. If it is not cleaned in the correct way, it is likely to damage the electroplating layer of the faucet, causing the faucet to be corroded and rusted. If you want to choose an all-copper kitchen faucet, you must be sure to have excellent electroplating, otherwise, it will easily cause the faucet to rust and corrode.


 
And now some manufacturers use high-quality 304 stainless steel to make faucets. Compared with pure copper faucets, faucets made of high-quality stainless steel are lead-free, acid-resistant, alkali-resistant, not corroded, do not release harmful substances, and do not pollute tap water sources. Moreover, the stainless steel faucet does not need electroplating, it is extremely difficult to rust, and its hardness and toughness are more than twice as high as those of copper products, so it is not easy to rust.

 

It's very easy to clean. However, due to the high difficulty of processing stainless steel, the current high-quality stainless steel faucets are usually relatively expensive.

 

3. Pay attention to whether the length of the faucet can take into account the sinks on both sides.
When purchasing, pay attention to the length of the basin and the faucet. If the kitchen is a double basin, pay attention to whether the length of the faucet can take into account the sinks on both sides when rotating. At present, most kitchen faucets can realize the left and right rotation of the faucet body, and the faucet part, the pull-out faucet can pull out the faucet, which is convenient for cleaning to all corners of the sink. Hold the spout with only one hand.

 

4. With the anti-calcification system and anti-backflow system.
Anti-calcification system: Calcium deposits in showerheads and self-cleaning systems, the same thing happens in faucets, where silicon builds up. The integrated air washer has an anti-calcification system that also internally prevents the device from being calcified. Anti-Backflow System: This system prevents dirty water from being sucked into the clean water pipe and consists of layers of material. Equipment equipped with an anti-backflow system will be marked with the DVGM pass mark on the packaging surface.
