When you think of a pull-out faucet, you probably conjure images of a tall, arching faucet that you pull from above and into your sink. However, you’re imagining a pull-down faucet.
In contrast, a pull-out faucet has a smaller area and a longer extension that moves horizontally rather than vertically. It may seem like a minor distinction, but the direction in which the faucet extends significantly affects the type of benefits it provides.
What design benefits do you obtain by installing a pull-out faucet?
The most obvious benefit of a pull-out faucet is its versatility. If your sink is shallow, you won’t have enough room to use a pull-down faucet.
A pull-out faucet, on the other hand, helps you make the most of a cramped space. If you don’t have enough room to fill your largest pot under a traditional faucet, set the pot on the counter, pull out your faucet, and fill any pot, bucket, or container.
If you prefer a traditional style, you’ll love pull-out kitchen faucets. Whereas pull-down faucets have a more vertical appearance that highlights the sleek lines of modern kitchens, a pull-out model looks much the same as any faucet you’d find in an older home.
You can still add a modern touch to your faucet. Either way, you’ll have more options than with the pull-down variety.
You’ll love the ease and convenience that come with a pull-out faucet. It has several advantages over traditional or pull-out faucets, including the following:
One of the most appealing benefits of a pull-out faucet is its lower price point. While a pull-down model will cost more, a pull-out faucet uses fewer materials, so you’ll spend less.
Do you feel annoyed when your faucet splashes water all over your counter? You may expect your shallow sink to have the same effect, but a pull-out faucet produces less splash than a pull-down model.
Why does this happen? The shallower sink, in combination with the right faucet, prevents water from building up momentum, so more stays in your sink.
You can choose from among several different design features for pull-out kitchen faucets.
You can choose from among several different materials for your sink, including:
An expert designer can help you choose the best material for your design aesthetic and lifestyle.
With a touchless faucet, you can simply wave your hand over the sensor in your fixture, and you’ll activate the water flow. This feature helps prevent the spread of germs and contaminants. For example, if you touch raw chicken, you won’t risk getting salmonella on your faucet and can wash and sanitize your hands before you touch anything.
When installing a deck-mounted faucet, you can choose different shapes for a refined design. You can also opt for enhanced features like a swivel spout for even greater flexibility or dual spray options to spray your water over a greater surface area rather than a single stream.
Consider whether you want a traditional single-handle model or dual-handle layout for controlling your hot and cold water.
