What types of installation exist for bidet taps?

There are free-standing, tabletop, wall-mounted and built-in bidet taps on the market. Their installation is relatively simple and economical, since they normally only require the creation of a single hole for the passage of the hot and cold water pipes.

Some models also include a removable shower spray that, after use, returns to its initial position inside the faucet.

Below we show you the types of bidet faucet installation that you can find on the market.

Built-in bidet taps

They have the great advantage that the mechanism, which in itself is visually unpleasant, is hidden behind the plaster or tiles. This is undoubtedly a smart solution for a minimalist bathroom, which is also combined with easier maintenance, as it is not necessary to clean so many metal elements.

However, you must take into consideration that this type of built-in faucet may not be installed in an already finished bathroom, where the water inlets are already prepared previously in the bidet.

Built-in faucets can generally be found in newly built or remodeled bathrooms. Since it is necessary to work on the wall, the installation of this mixer is quite laborious. The user must also purchase a built-in body with water connection suitable for this faucet.

Types of wall-mounted bidet taps

There are different types of bidet taps that can be recessed into the wall of your bathroom, to give it that minimalist and impeccable touch that you are looking for. You can select the one that best suits your needs, your budget, and of course, your tastes. The most common types of built-in bidet faucets are the following:

Single-lever bidet taps

Single handle bidet faucets (also known as single lever faucets) are practical and economical.

The advantage they offer is that you only need one hand to use them, slightly moving the lever up and down to adjust the intensity of the water flow, left and right. right to select the temperature.

Bidet taps with controls are a very common variantin the design of this type of tap. However, consider that, since hot and cold water are mixed in two separate taps, consumption can naturally increase.

In general, in conservatively designed bathrooms, knob faucets in general (including bidet faucets) make a pleasant visual impression.

Some of the options that you can get directly in our catalog are: Sweden black-gold built-in bidet tap BDCO32-5/NGOLD Imex, Maui chrome built-in bidet tap RDM004/CR Imex, and Tap toilet/bidet Ness chrome cold water RDM005 Imex.

With these single-lever bidet taps you will have much more practicality when using them, since as we have mentioned, they allow you to regulate the flow and temperature of the water with a single lever .

Generally they all work in a similar way: If you want to regulate the water flow, you just have to lower or raise the lever they have, while if what you want is to increase or lower the temperature of the water, you just have to move it to the left or to the right respectively.

Two-handle bidet taps

Offering a simple mechanism, this faucet has two control handles, one for hot water and one for cold water.

It may be a little more economical at the beginning, however, its main disadvantage is that you have to operate both controls in attempts until the desired temperature is reached. It is for this reason that over time it is not very economical, since the water adjustment occurs with each use.

We know well that double control models are simpler and more comfortable, but also less practical, since as we mentioned, the user must use two controls or levers to be able to regulate the flow and the temperature.

Additionally, since the flow of cold water and hot water must be regulated separately, it usually takes more time to reach the desired temperature and this also causes some water waste.

Thermostatic water taps

Bidet mixers or taps with a push button are the third variant. In them you can very precisely adjust the temperature and water flow. This control method is especially suitablewhen the faucet is integrated with a bidet shower.

Equipped with two handles to adjust the flow and temperature, this faucet allows you to maintain a constant temperature. Without a doubt, one of the greatest advantages that this faucet offers is that you can avoid many sunburns, which will give you optimal comfort.

What materials should bidet taps have?

To guarantee the resistance of the faucet and influence both its aesthetic aspect and its functional and durability aspect, the material must undoubtedly be a parameter to take into account. A bidet faucet can be:

• Chrome steel: Which allows people to enjoy a certain ease of maintenance. The finish of this type of filter can be matte or glossy.
• Copper or brass: This type of faucet is special if what you are looking for is a retro-looking and corrosion-resistant faucet.
• Stainless steel: Although this may be less striking aesthetically, we know that it is highly appreciated for its resistance.

However, we tell you that if what you want is to choose the bidet tap based on your aesthetic needs, the current offer includes modern and retro style taps. If square elements predominate in your bathroom, choose a faucet with a similar design. Otherwise, opt for bidet faucets with a nice rounded shape.

The predominant finish in this category is chrome, but it is not essential that a bidet faucet is necessarily this color to look beautiful and elegant. We recommend black faucets for larger bathrooms. modern. The market's offering also includes white, stainless steel or the exclusive gold color.

What type of cleaning and maintenance is recommended for bidet taps built into the wall?

Bidet faucets should be cleaned at least once a week. In the case of showers with a bidet, we must not forget to thoroughly clean both the controls and the head, where dirt can accumulate and cause bacterial proliferation.
