Mixing bathroom faucets are very practical, as they allow you to adjust the temperature with one hand and save water… Battery faucets also determine the style you will give to your bathroom decor: in Leroy Merlin stores you will find classic and modern bathroom faucets , in chrome, bronze or gold color!
What exactly is a bathroom faucet?
The mixing batteries are distinguished from the rest by their unique ability to regulate the flow (from top to bottom) as well as the temperature (from right to left) of the water. It is thus possible to turn off the tap without changing the water temperature. Thanks to the mixing batteries you can instantly raise the temperature to the desired level and thus save water.
Mixer battery types Low neck: designed for inserted washbasins, substitutes and especially for washbasins. With a high neck: we recommend them for seated washbasins (troughs). With infrared: Established for many years in hotels, they now have a place in our bathroom! The built-in photocell recognizes motion in front of the battery thanks to infrared (motion sensor) and activates water flow. This way you can ensure maximum hygiene and great water economy. Waterfall: modern batteries with a cascade-shaped finish are very fashionable in recent years and will bring a zen aura to your bathroom! Built-in: At Leroy Merlin you will find built-in bathroom batteries that are built into the wall (inside) and match all types of sinks. This saves space, and reduces surface area for easier cleaning.
Colors and style Although chrome, bronze and stainless steel colors remain the most common colors in bathroom batteries, new fashion trends bring gold, two-tone chrome-gold to our bathroom, and mixing materials such as chrome-glass. To achieve a modern style, choose stainless steel, chrome, while for a more zen environment choose a battery with a mixture of materials such as chrome-glass. Finally, to make a classic bathroom stand out more, a battery in bronze or gold is the best choice!
Water saving Air-cooled / water-saving battery: The filters are placed in the batteries and reduce water consumption by mixing water with air. The average water flow of a bathroom battery is 12 liters per minute. The filters allow you to save up to 50% on water. Dual flow batteries: They allow you to select the flow according to your needs, giving you the option of two positions (6L / minute and 12L / minute). The first position allows you to use 50% of the power and with the second opening you can reach 100% of the volume.
