How to Choose the Right Basin Mixer for Your Bathroom
Choosing the right basin mixer is one of the most important decisions when setting up or renovating your bathroom. A good mixer doesn’t just add style — it enhances daily comfort and saves water with efficiency. Whether you're designing a modern master bath or upgrading a guest washroom, this guide will help you make the best choice.
1. Understand the Types of Basin Mixers
There are several kinds of basin mixers, each suited for specific needs:
-
Single Lever Mixer: One handle controls both hot and cold water. Sleek and easy to use.
-
Wall-Mounted Mixer: Fixed to the wall, great for minimalist or space-saving bathrooms.
-
Sensor Taps: Touchless and hygienic, ideal for modern homes and commercial use.
2. Size and Compatibility Matter
Before buying a mixer, check your basin size and tap hole spacing. A tall spout may suit countertop basins, while a compact one fits small wash areas better. Ensure it’s compatible with your water pressure system too.
3. Pay Attention to Material & Finish
For durability and long-lasting shine, choose brass body taps with chrome or matte finishes. They resist corrosion and look great in both traditional and contemporary settings.
4. Installation Tips
Hire a certified plumber to avoid leakage issues. Choose wall or deck-mounted models based on your bathroom layout. Some mixers offer pop-up waste features — a great bonus for convenience.
