Which Kitchen Taps are suitable for low pressure systems?

Posted by Taps.co.uk on 1st Mar 2018

Water pressure in your system is a very important factor when it comes to choosing which tap to buy, it's the difference between buying the tap suitable for your system, allowing the water to flow freely and without fault, or buying a tap unsuitable for your systems' pressure, in which case the water flowing from the tap will be at a lesser rate or in some cases even being unable to get the water out of the spout. As this is such an important factor we here at Taps.co.uk have decided to put together a list of our most stylish low pressure taps which are perfect for however low your system's pressure.

First on our list is our beautiful Perrin & Rowe Phoenician 4460 Tap, it is a monobloc tap that is found in our Contemporary Collection with the more modern lever style handles and is also available in a wide range of finishes from Chrome to Gold to Aged Brass. In terms of low pressure this tap definitely has you covered, it is usable down to a measly 0.2 bar (around 3 psi) of water pressure; making it a perfect candidate for your low pressure system. It's familiar design allows it to blend in seamlessly to any style of kitchen, be it a more modern style minimalistic kitchen or a traditional, warm kitchen setting; being available in such a wide variety of finishes just helps it blend ever more into your life. We recommend a more gleaming chrome colour for more modern kitchen and a muted brass colour for a more classic look.

Next up on our list is our brilliantly classic Perrin & Rowe Mayan 4338 Kitchen Tap, this is a striking contrast from the last tap in terms of look; this tap consists of two deck mounted taps and is part of our Traditional Collection. This design of taps has opted for the more classical crosshead handles; with these features and the full range of Perrin & Rowe finishes available for you to choose from this tap is fully designed and intended for the more traditional of kitchens. When it comes to the water pressure of this tap it is usable down to 0.2 bar same as the above tap; making it suitable for the lowest of pressures and giving you peace of mind when buying from us.

Finally on our list we have our stunning Perrin & Rowe IO 4293 Kitchen Tap featuring both a raised spout and raised handles. We offer many taps of this variety on our site and in our Contemporary Collection however only choice taps are suitable for low pressure systems. Again this tap is suitable for systems as low down as 0.2 bar, making it a real contender in the choices you have in both functionality and style; the modern lever handles and brilliant finishes sets this tap apart from the others with an aesthetic that allows it to fit in with its surroundings, regardless of the kitchen style.

We highly recommend looking at the technical specifications for all taps and be sure to find out what the water pressure of your system is to guarantee you're buying the perfect tap for you! We hope that this has been an insight into the world of low pressure taps, there's more choice than you would think!
