Best Shower Filter Reviews & Ultimate Buying Guide

Reasons to Get a New and Better Faucet:

1. Let the old man go.

Alright, we will give it to our current faucet system, its done a good job while it was new and fresh, but it has been a while and has clearly lost its magic. It wobbles, messes with the water pressure and whatnot. So, like Elsa says, let it go.

Get a new faucet and put the old one to rest. RIP.

2. Rust and corrosion.

We can bet our bucks, whatever little we have of it, that your year-old faucet is rusting and corroding at the speed of a horse. This is just acceptable. It looks disgusting and, believe or not, can end up contaminating the water, so be smart and get a new faucet that won't rust on you anytime soon.

3. Hard water stain.

Hard water stains are one of the most consistent complaints we have about faucets, and many subpar quality faucets will continue to stain from the water splashes. Although it isn't a huge performance issue, it does scratch the eyes. Doesn't look too fitting in a proper bathroom, does it?

4. Clashes with décor.

Speaking of which, no matter how well your current faucet works and no matter how high quality it is, it will still look and feel odd if it does not match and complement the bathrooms individual décor. It is very important that you get something that matches and blends in with your bathrooms style and purpose.

Buying Guide: Best Bathroom Faucet!

1. Construction and design.

Don't fall for looks just yet. Before you waltz into the store and get the prettiest looking faucet, we would like to let you know that construction and design aspects are far more important. We are, however, by no means asking you to debunk beauty and aesthetics.

The first and most important feature to look for in a faucet is its construction. Faucets, obviously, are numerous designs and styles, so knowing which is what always helps. The most common construction styles are center set and widespread. In a center set faucet, all the components, the spout, handle (or handles), are fixed onto a plate whereas in a widespread faucet, the components are separate and individual.

2. Installation holes.

The installation process of a faucet should not be a rocket science if you are equipped with all the right resources like tools, proper and comprehensive instruction manual, and hardware. One very important thing you have to know about installing faucets, however, is regarding its installation holes.

The number for holes under your faucet system may vary from 1 to 3, but what's important here is that your sink must have exactly the same number of holes as your faucet system. A 2-hole sink won't install a 3-hole widespread faucet. Having said that, one thing you could do to stay out of this mess is get a faucet that comes with adapters.

3. Mount ability.

Have you noticed that some faucets are not mounted on the sink, but rather onto the wall? Well, those are called wall mountable faucets. The ones that you install onto the sink are called deck mountable faucets.

4. Handles

The handles of the faucet system are undoubtedly one of the most important parts of the entire system. First of all, it does a lot more than turn the faucet on and off, it also regulates the water pressure and control temperature. But how many handles does one possibly need?

Two. You will need two if you want to enjoy maximum versatility and control. However, single handle faucets aren't any less by any means, they get the job done just as well and are, of course, easier on the wallet.

5. Water flow.

The next thing to consider when shopping for your next bathroom faucet is the water flow rate and pressure. The water flow rate is measured in GPM while the pressure in psi. The higher the GPM and psi, the higher the flow rate and pressure. Now, here's the thing, more doesn't always mean better, especially when it comes to your faucets!

Get something too high and the water flows out piercing through your hands, get something too low and you will cry out for each drop. The trick here is to hit the perfect middle point between too much and too little. As a rule of thumb, you want your faucet to measure at around 1.2 to 1.5 GPM with a pressure of around 60 psi.

6. Staining and rusting.

Faucets, both old and new, are absolutely notorious for staining like there's no tomorrow. Although there are a number of reasons behind the staining, its mostly hard water, steam, and humidity. Behold, you can also reach the rusting stage if you are not careful.

One sure and easy way to steer clear of this is focusing on the finish of your faucet. It has been observed that clear and shiny finishes like chrome tend to stain more, and more obviously, than a brushed finish. But do you really have to compromise on the finish just to be safe from rusts and stains? Not at all. Just make sure you buy high-quality faucets that come with a special coating that prevent and delay such damages.

7. Leaks and drips.

If you are lucky enough, you may find a faucet that won't leak or drip. The unfortunate news here is that even the high-end and equality faucets tend to leak or drip some time or the other. The only thing you can do here to make sure and pray that this does not happen with you is get a faucet that comes with durable and high-quality valves, aerators, rings, etc. Nothing should look or feel loose or cracked or wobbly, check everything.

8. Certification.

Mishaps happen, there is only so much you can control. Believe it or not, but many faucet manufacturers know this, hence, many producers who take their job seriously will have their faucets tested for quality to meet certain standards and criteria. Some even come with water consumption certifications that restrict excessive water use and eventually end up saving your bucks.

If you can get a faucet with accredited certifications and qualifications, then great! If not, then that's fine too. No worries. It's just nice to be able to trust a product, right?

9. Warranty.

And then finally, you have your warranty. Listen, faucets don't always come cheap, and on top of that some of them are nowhere near the quality or performance they promise. So, we highly recommend that you get a faucet that comes with some sort of warranty (especially if it's from a premium brand and cost premium buck!).

Many manufacturers will even go as far as offering you repairs, replacements, and refunds for faulty products. Also, try and look for sellers and brands that have a good rep with customer service and after sales services since many sellers can shut the door on your face after you purchase their products. All in all, try and get some sort of after-sales benefit. Be a smart customer and make the most of the money you paid for it!

Frequently Asked Questions about Faucets:

1. I got a drainage stopper that does not match the faucet I got. Can I get one separately?

Answer: Yes, absolutely. Well, before you make a trip to the store, we highly suggest that you contact the manufacturer of the faucet via email or phone. It is in fact very normal for sellers to mismatch or send the wrong drainage stopper.

So, asking them for the correct part may resolve the problem once and for all. If that's not an option, then resort to store shopping. Just make sure you get a drainage stopper that is compatible with your sink.

2. Can I install my wall mount faucet setup on the sink?

Answer: We don't know how much it would be true, but logic says it won't work. Wall mounted faucets are designed and constructed in very specific ways that differ from a deck mounted faucet. So, installing a wall faucet on the sink or a deck mountable faucet on the wall doesn't add up. And even if it does work, it could greatly affect the water flow rate, and don't forget about the handles! Using the handles are going to feel very odd and awkward.

3. The water flow from my faucet is very hard. It was fine when I bought it, but over a few months it started to act this way. What now?

Answer: Chances are that you got yourself an aerated bathroom faucet. This means the faucet uses a special component called the aerator. An aerator is what gives the water its light and airy flow as opposed to your hard and dense flow.

The aerator of your current faucet may have cracked or clogged or something, so you may want to replace that soon.

4. How can I remove the hard water stains off my faucet? It just won't go away!

Answer: Been there, done that. Hard water stains can be extremely stubborn, and they only get worse over time. A simple and inexpensive DIY is to use 1-part vinegar to half part lemon juice.

Soak a sponge in the solution and let it sit over the stained faucets, make sure the entire area is covered. After 30 minutes, take off the soak and start scrubbing like there is no tomorrow. Don't use abrasive fabric though, it can scratch the faucet. So, there's your at-home DIY. For more stubborn stains, however, you have to go the commercial route and use a chemical cleaner.

5. The faucet I like is a 3 holer, but I have a 2-hole sink. Is there anything I can do?

Answer: If you check our buying guide, you will find that many faucets will come with adapters that let your 3 holers be installed onto a 2-hole sink, and vice versa. But if your faucet did not come with any adapter whatsoever, then you should maybe check with the manufacturer or home depot.
