The kitchen faucet is a water supply device installed on the kitchen sink, mainly used to control the flow of hot and cold water, convenient for daily washing of ingredients, tableware or other kitchen operations. The following is a detailed introduction to kitchen faucets:
Valve core: core component, controls water flow switch and temperature adjustment (common material: ceramic valve core, durable and good sealing).
Handle: single handle (rotate to adjust hot and cold water), double handle (separate control of hot and cold) or induction (contactless operation).
Spout: determines the water flow form (such as straight out, shower mode), some can be pulled or rotated.
Water inlet pipe: connects to hot and cold water pipes, usually hidden under the sink.
Hot and cold dual control: connected to the home hot water system, the temperature is adjusted through the mixing valve.
Water-saving design: some models are equipped with a bubbler to increase the air feeling of the water flow, reduce water splashing and save water.
Splash-proof function: shower mode or flow limiting design to avoid water splashing on the countertop during cleaning.
Stainless steel: corrosion-resistant, cost-effective.
Copper alloy: good antibacterial properties, commonly used in high-end styles.
Plastic/PVD coating: light or decorative, but less durable.
