How to Use Bar Faucets in the Home
When you’re shopping for new faucets, it’s easy to get distracted by the cool and sleek look of bar sink faucets, but how do people actually use them in their homes? There are a lot of different choices, but their narrow reach can be very limiting. While they are usually paired with a home bar sink, they don’t always have to be. In this post I’ll show you some different and creative uses for them in your home.
This type of sink is normally used in the home bar along with all of the other bar accessories. If you don’t have or want a home bar you can still get a ton of mileage out of a bar faucet. By definition, these faucets are much taller and have a smaller reach then regular faucets. Most of them will pivot to make up for their short reach. This design is normally for rinsing out glasses and washing hands in the bar setting, but you can use them however you want in the home.
The most common use outside of the home bar is as bathroom faucets. This provides a much more modern and grown-up look than the regular, boring bathroom faucet. One really cool feature that many high end bar faucets have is the ability to turn the water on and off with a motion sensor, which works great when washing your face and hands.
In the kitchen these faucets are used along with a water filter to have an extra sink that is just for drinking water. You can save a lot of money on water filters when the sink does nothing else except dispense drinking water. When kitchen faucets are filtered you burn up most of the filter when doing dishes.
Anywhere that you can benefit from a compact faucet is a good place for a bar faucet. They are relatively affordable and easy to find. Use the two examples discussed above to figure out a perfect use for them in your home.
