As practice shows, often problems arise due to the fact that the buyer forgets to ask himself the question: what kind of mixer does he need. In fact, a lot depends not only on the brand and quality of a particular model, but on the purpose and proper attitude to the purchase of such equipment, because operating conditions must be taken into account individually each time. We will try to consider the important parameters of the choice of such a technique, based on, first of all, the types of faucets for both the bathroom and the kitchen:

1. Appointment - we are talking about the method of operation provided for by the design of the mixer. On sale there are mixers for water in the bathroom, in the kitchen, for the filter of drinking water. Obviously, the washbasin and the bidet need different models that differ even in appearance. At the same time, even for the bath, structures of different shapes can be used: with the possibility of connecting a shower set and without it. In turn, a long swivel spout allows the use of a washbasin faucet, if it is possible to turn the equipment to the bath directly with the layout of the room.
2. Design - The most popular are arcuate and direct solutions. However, on sale you can find products for any interior design in the literal sense. True, not all manufacturers are pleased with such a variety of collections.
3. Type of mixer - indicates the method of control and application of technology. Today on sale there are thermostatic, single-lever, two-valve, non-contact, single-fan, electronic, as well as non-contact models.
4. Spout shape - conventionally distinguish classic and cascade mixers that differ in shape, angle, section. At the same time, cascading models look more presentable: water, as a rule, is supplied as a waterfall.
5. Installation method - On sale there are wall, horizontal, built-in faucets (both horizontally and vertically), as well as floor models, if it is not possible to donate a few "square centimeters".
