Which Kitchen Taps fit my Belfast Sink best?

Posted by Taps.co.uk on 13th Mar 2018

Congratulations! You've bought yourself a brand new belfast sink ready and waiting to be installed into your kitchen worktop; everything's ready, the sink goes in and it looks wonderful, absolutely perfect for your colour of worktop, style of kitchen, it's just perfect... But then you crane your head just slightly upwards and what do you see? The worst looking, worst fitting tap that you have ever seen in your entire life; I mean sure it looked okay with your old sink but those days are behind you now, you've upgraded to a brand new sink and to be honest that tap just has no place in your perfect kitchen... It has to go. Now we at Taps.co.uk understand that it's hard to part with an old appliance and it's even harder to find a replacement, especially if it's to fit a certain style; so we have put together a little list of some of the best looking and performing taps that you can buy for a belfast sink.

First up on our list is the beautiful Phoenician 4460 Kitchen Tap brought to you by the brilliant people at Perrin & Rowe and a part of their wonderfully stylish Traditional Tap Collection; with its wide variety of high quality finishes from Chrome to Aged Brass it is the perfect tap to start off this list. It features an elegantly curved spout with a water flow controlled by two porcelain lever handles. This tap is perfectly suited to compliment your new traditionally styled ceramic belfast sink be it a one, one and a half or two bowled sink due to its ability to swivel its spout around for extra coverage and usability. Does your plumbing system suffer from low pressure issues? This tap is the gift that keeps on giving as it is guaranteed to work flawlessly down to a water pressure of just 0.2 bar (3 psi).

Next up on our list is another from the people over at Perrin & Rowe: their wonderfully classical Mayan 4338 Kitchen Taps. This set consists of two absolutely beautifully hand crafted deck-mounted brass taps available in the same awe inspiring selection of finishes as the tap above, complete with crosshead handles (to complete the traditional look). All of Perrin & Rowe's brassware is individually water tested during the manufacturing process; the products only ever leave the factory if they pass all of the set tests with flying colours. For any more information about Perrin & Rowe's kitchen or bath taps then please feel free to follow this link to their 'about' page [link]. This tap also features a wonderful ability to be suitable for pressure systems as low down as 0.2 bar, making this one definitely one you should be thinking about for your new belfast sink.

Finally on our list we have one from Perrin & Rowe's Country Tap Collection: the timeless Alsace 4771 Kitchen Tap. This beautiful 3-hole mixer tap features two all-brass lever handles, a main stem that carries on forever leading to the gorgeous swivel spout at the top. The tap boasts a look that would integrate itself into the look of your kitchen flawlessly when paired with a ceramic belfast sink. The list of finishes that this tap is available in ranges from Chromes and Nickels all the way up to Perrin & Rowe's signature 'living finishes' (finishes that change tones and settles when placed into a kitchen) such as Aged Brass. This tap works at pressures down to 1 bar of pressure, because of this the tap is not suitable for low pressure plumbing systems.

So there we have it, three brilliant taps all suitable for your brand new belfast sink, we hope that you have found this list useful in your quest for the perfect tap. We mentioned low water pressure a lot in this post, if you would like to learn more about what to do if your water pressure is low then please follow this link to a previous blog post talking about the subject [link].
