What Is Unique About Bridge Kitchen Faucets?
Bridge faucets have a unique style that gives them a real presence in the kitchen. Rising from the countertop from two, or sometimes three, pipes and meeting in the middle with an arching spout - the visual difference from a standard kitchen faucet is quite obvious.
Aside from their distinct bridge design, they also offer marked contrast from other kitchen faucets in their usability.
Unlike the typical faucet found today that have a single handle, bridge faucets offers a two-handle control - both the hot and the cold water can be turned on independently.
This feature can be useful for those who want to be able to have more adjustability in getting precise temperatures or the amount of water flow.
It is preferred by some who want to avoid the possibility of scalding by being able to turn on only the cold tap if needed. It can also be useful when wanting only hot water, as is common in a kitchen when filling a pot or cooking.
Deck Mounted vs. Wall Mounted Bridge Kitchen Faucets:
Deck mounted bridge kitchen faucets are installed vertically into the countertop, when paired with undermount sinks, or into the deck of the sink, when used with drop in or dual mount sinks. Deck mounted tends to be the most common style for bridge faucets, with a wide variety of options available.
Wall mounted bridge kitchen faucets are installed coming straight out of the wall, horizontal to the countertop. They are often paired with a wall-mount farmhouse sink with an integrated backsplash for a traditional aesthetic.
Why Does A Sprayer Matter For A Bridge Faucet?
A sprayer can be of the utmost benefit to anyone who uses a kitchen sink.
A bridge faucet with a sprayer has the benefit of being much more functional because it creates another way to direct the water stream, often with adjustable spray settings, in just the push of a button.
This directed water pressure can make doing dishes, washing hands, preparing food, and especially cleaning the sink, a much less messy and more enjoyable task.
Sprayers are a common standard among contemporary faucets and although a sprayer may not have originally been included in the bridge kitchen faucets from the early 1900’s, we now have the ability to get the best of both worlds: vintage style and modern function!
