5 key things to look for when buying a tap:
Material: The material of the tap is an important factor to consider when buying a tap. Popular materials include stainless steel, chrome, brass, and oil-rubbed bronze. Each material has its own unique properties and benefits.
Style: Taps come in a wide variety of styles, such as traditional, modern, and industrial. The style of the tap should complement the overall design of the room.
Functionality: Consider the functionality of the tap, whether you want a single-handle or double-handle tap, one with a high-arc spout or a low-arc spout, and if you need a pull-out sprayer for added convenience.
Water flow rate: The water flow rate is another important factor to consider when buying a tap. Look for a tap with a high flow rate for greater efficiency and a better overall water flow.
Durability: The durability of the tap is an important factor to consider when buying a tap. Look for taps that are made with high-quality materials and have a good reputation for lasting a long time. And also check if it has a warranty.
Which is better PVD coated or electro-plated taps?
It depends on what you are looking for in a kitchen tap.
PVD (Physical Vapor Deposition) coated kitchen taps are considered to be more durable and long-lasting than electroplated kitchen taps. PVD coating is a process that creates a very thin and hard layer of metal on the surface of the tap, making it resistant to scratches, corrosion, and tarnishing.
Electroplating, on the other hand, is a process where a thin layer of metal is applied to the surface of the tap using an electrical current. Electroplated kitchen taps can be less durable than PVD-coated kitchen taps, and are more prone to scratches, corrosion, and tarnishing over time.
However, PVD-coated kitchen taps can be more expensive than electroplated kitchen taps. So, it depends on your budget and how much you are willing to invest in your kitchen taps.
Our chrome and black matte taps are electro-plated, and the brush gold and brush gun metal are PVD coated. The brush nickel range has both electro-plated and PVD-coated models.
