Bathroom Faucets to Consider for Your Remodeling Project

Manufacturers of bathroom faucets seem to have found a niche for their high-end products. As contractors and homeowners enjoy the benefits of outfitting their bathrooms with the latest models of faucets, the industry has gone overdrive and consumers are being bombarded with hundreds of new models to choose from every year. To help in the task of selecting the right model for your bathroom decor (and your budget) we have compiled this short list of recommended brands.

Bathroom faucets have come a long way from the traditional three-piece fixtures found in most homes. Though unattractive and simple, bathroom sinks faucets have made it possible to enhance the personal care of people for decades. Now, with new technological advances, manufacturers have found ways to fuse modern design and functionality to create interesting water faucets for the bathroom of the future.

During our research we found three models that we think would best describe the current style trends for bathroom faucets. Companies such as American Standard, Kraus and Fontaine have been at the forefront of the creation of faucets that are meant to enhance the beauty of any bathroom, helping consumers to move away from the traditional and to embrace more contemporary elements to their daily lives.

For example, the new Fontaine Cambridge Widespread Faucet model NF CMBW6 is perfect example of traditional meets modern. From the outside this three-piece bathroom faucet looks classic and elegant but under its “hood” it packs a technological punch that meets the demands of the kitchen of today.

The Fontaine Cambridge measures 7 inches tall of high-quality brass. It is available in two finishes: brushed nickel and chrome, giving you more choices to match your current bathroom design. It also features an interesting ceramic cartridge, a modern solution that prevents drips and controls the delivery of water flow. The manufacturer includes all of the assembly parts such as mounting hardware and installation indications, perfect for do-it-yourself enthusiasts.

If you are looking for modern looks both inside and out, we found the perfect match for your taste. For years Kraus has been designing home solutions so revolutionary and futuristic that the second best place you would find them is at a museum of modern art. Their latest creation, the Kraus Millennium Faucet model MIL 1202 has become the center of attention of industry critics who are going gaga over its peculiar design.

Made with solid brass, this art-deco-inspired faucet is everything a modern piece of home-ware should be: elegant, unique and functional. The Millennium actually offers great aesthetics for any simple bathroom decor, seamlessly blending with the overall bathroom design. Its upside down, squared U shape brings organic motion to the otherwise static flat surfaces of this faucet: the water shoots up the flat faucet as high as 13.5 inches tall and like a roller coaster, comes down forward out of the curved spout, which delivers a constant flow of crystal clear water.

Another company that promises to deliver great water quality and eco-friendly benefits (while offering a great modern decor) is American Standard with its new Green Tea Widespread Bathroom Faucet.

This Green Tea American Standard bathroom faucet concept is beautiful and easy to the eyes. Featuring oriental curves in the handles and in the faucet itself, this three-piece faucet brings a sense of balance to any bathroom. Its smooth surface is guaranteed by the manufacturer not to tarnish or scratch over time.

This bathroom faucet also features a pull-out faucet and a flexible stainless steel cable for extended use. This American Standard faucet has also received the WaterSense, water conservation certification by the Environmental Protection Agency, as its ceramic valves prevent the waste of water due to leaks and drips.

As you can see these are just three interesting models of bathroom faucets that are making an impact in the current remodeling industry. It is up to you to choose the right one for your home. We hope the models we have reviewed here will help you a little in making an informed decision.
