The most common type of wall mount kitchen faucet that you are likely to see is the dual handled faucet. A satin nickel finish is also quite popular and the cross handles are a favorite for ease of use reasons. Where there is some room for personal preference to come in to give it your own touch is in the shape of the faucet spout.

Rather than choosing a wall mount faucet with cross handles you may want to go for a more traditional style of faucet handles. Something like the lever handles could be more your thing. In this example the lever handled wall mount faucet has been manufactured with a chrome finish.

Oil rubbed bronze is a particularly popular finish to use with kitchen faucets, particularly when putting together a rustic or farmhouse style of kitchen. Pictured here is a very traditional, old-style looking faucet that incorporates the oil-rubbed bronze finish with the traditional looking lever faucet handles.

We've seen chrome, we've seen nickel and we've seen bronze, so here is another variation in finish. This time it's brass and this brass has been given the treatment to help bring out the shine in the metal.

A more modern wall mount faucet will also look effective. Here is a modern faucet that has been given a clean lines appearance with as little embellishment as possible.

Just because the faucet is wall mounted doesn't mean that it has to have two handles. This is merely the more common type of traditional faucet set up. A more modern faucet may very well consist of a mixer that is mounted on the wall for easy application. A mixer faucet that is mounted on the wall can bring a few other features along with it or features may be easily added to the package.

Finally there are wall mount kitchen faucets that are given as much practicality as possible. Here we have an articulating kitchen faucet in which the faucet spout consists of multiple moving joints so that it may be positioned exactly where you need it. Whether that's filling large pots or lowered so that food preparation is made simpler.

Add A Wall Mount Faucet To the Kitchen

Tuesday, October 13th, 2009

During a kitchen renovation there are many seemingly small decisions that have to be made that will affect the overall look and appeal of the room. The new faucets are one of these little choices with something as innocuous as whether the faucet will be bench mounted or wall mounted.

As the name suggests, a wall mounted kitchen faucet has the handles mounted on the wall above the sink rather than on the bench top. A wall mount faucet requires specialist installation skills with the water source having to be extended above the sink inside the wall. It’s the kind of thing that must be done early on in the renovation process before the kitchen walls have been added in, so make sure your plans are clear and set in stone to avoid having to go back and replacing the wall soon after it has been built.

The range of wall mount kitchen faucets is quite diverse with a variety available that will complement different styles of kitchens.

The most common type of faucet is a dual handle wall kitchen faucet with a handle for the hot water and another handle for the cold water installed either side of the spout. This is the type of set up that most people visualize when they think about a traditional kitchen faucet.

The alternative is a single wall mount kitchen faucet that operates using a single lever that controls the water flow as well as the temperature of the water. It works by moving in an upward and downward motion to control water flow and side to side to adjust the water temperature.

An additional accessory that you may also want to have mounted on the wall is a pull out faucet to use when washing pots and reaching other areas that require a water source. This sort of faucet will have the added feature of having a wide range of movement as well as being able to be extended far beyond that of a normal faucet.

Apart from the fact that you may prefer the look of a wall mounted kitchen faucet, there is a further benefit to installing one and that is that it frees up some of the counter space. In a kitchen where counter space is at a premium, clearing the sink area of faucet hardware will help create the appearance of more room and it will also allow the space to be used when the kitchen gets busy.

Choosing a wall mount kitchen faucet that suits your budget without having to compromise on the quality can go a long way with its dependable functionality.

Wall mount faucets are available from all major faucet manufacturers with a range large enough to meet every style. From chrome to stainless steel, copper and brushed bronze there is a look and a style that will suit every taste.
