Choose the perfect tap for your kitchen Below are a few options and features to consider when choosing your perfect kitchen tap. Taps are largely about style and preference although they can have several useful features: table.cq-sizeguidetable {width:100%; border-collapse: collapse; text-align:left; font-family: Arial; font-size:12px; border-bottom:1px solid #f4f2ec; margin-top:10px;padding-bottom:1px;}table.cq-sizeguidetable th {border-width: 0px;padding: 8px;background-color: #dedbd2;}table.cq-sizeguidetable td {border-width: 0px;padding: 8px;border-style: none;}table.cq-sizeguidetable td:first-child {font-weight:bold;}.cq-sizeguidetable tr:nth-child(odd){background-color: #f4f2ec;} Aerators (also called flow constrictors) These are anti-splash, but also mix air with your water, creating a good pressure, at the same time as saving water. If you are simply rinsing plates or cutlery these can give a great saving. Filter taps These work in the same way as a water filter jug, except they filter as you draw water from the mains, therefore giving you limitless filtered water. They remove bacteria, chlorine and lead from the water supply. They also remove any pesticides and insecticides which may have got into the water system. Filtered water also helps reduce the build up of limescale in appliances. The filter cartridges for these taps need replacing every 6 months or so to retain effectiveness. Hot taps Use a mini-boiler under the sink to provide you with instant boiling (or hot) water. You no longer need to rely on kettles or saucepans to heat water before you make a cup of tea, or boil your veg - it comes instantly from the tap. Some taps can also provide you with chilled water for cold drinks, and even sparkling water. These are great if you like fizzy drinks, but prefer to avoid additional sugar - simply mix with your favourite cordial!
