What is a Kitchen Mixer Tap?
Kitchen Mixer taps combine hot and cold water through a single spout, allowing you to adjust the temperature with ease. Typically utilising a cartridge inside of the tap, a kitchen mixer tap offers a simpler, minimalist design by comparison with traditional designs that requires fiddling between hot and cold taps. Available in a wide range of styles such as spray mixers, pull out taps, provincial mixers, and more, a kitchen mixer is an ideal starting point for searching for the right tap.
Stylistically, your tap stands as a focal point in your kitchen, and depending on the general design you’re going for, your tap choice can complement your benchtop, cabinetry, sink and more. For that reason, keep in mind that you can filter your tap choices based around the look you’re going for in your kitchen.

What are the different types of mixer taps available?
There are several types of mixer taps to choose from, each offering unique benefits:
Gooseneck Mixer Taps: These have a high, arched spout, perfect for filling tall pots and washing large items.
Spray Head Mixer Taps: These taps offer a dual-function spray head, allowing you to switch between a steady stream and a powerful spray.

Square Neck Mixer Taps: With clean, angular lines, these taps offer a modern look for contemporary kitchens.
What are the Benefits of Mixer Taps?
Mixer taps offer several advantages over traditional separate hot and cold taps:
Precision temperature control: With a single lever, you can easily adjust the water temperature to your desired level.
Space-saving design: Mixer taps require only one hole in the sink or countertop, freeing up space for other accessories or a cleaner look.
Easy installation: Most mixer taps come with flexible hoses and standard fittings, making them relatively simple to install.
How do I choose the right mixer tap for my kitchen?
When selecting a mixer tap, consider the following factors:
Sink compatibility: Ensure the tap will fit your sink's hole configuration and mounting style (e.g., top mount or undermount).
Spout reach and height: Choose a tap with a spout that's high enough to accommodate your largest pots and reaches far enough into the sink for easy washing.
Functionality: Decide on the features you need, such as a pull-out spray for added flexibility or a high-arched spout for filling large pots.
Material and Finish: Ensure the tap matches your kitchen decor. Options include stainless steel, chrome, and matte finishes.
Water efficiency: Look for taps with water-saving features like low-flow aerators or WELS certification to help conserve resources and lower your utility bills.
How do I maintain my mixer tap?
Regular maintenance includes cleaning the tap with a mild detergent and soft cloth, checking for leaks, and occasionally descaling to remove mineral buildup.
Are mixer taps compatible with all sink types?
Yes, mixer taps are versatile and compatible with most sink types, including undermount, inset, and farmhouse sinks. Ensure the tap's height and reach match your sink dimensions for optimal functionality.
