How Do Basin Mixer Taps Work?
Mixer taps allow for the combination of hot and cold water before they flow out through the spout. These taps have small holes called valves inside them. When you turn the tap on and adjust the hot and cold knobs accordingly, the corresponding valves become partially or completely open depending on the position of the knobs.
For instance, if you just want hot water, you can close the cold water valve completely and open the hot water valve completely or partially. You have precise control over the temperature, allowing you to draw water at just the right warmth. They are a great choice for any home, especially ones with family households.

Mixer taps let you mix hot and cold water to different degrees in the basin itself. Whether you are washing your face or shaving, you can precisely control the temperature of the water.

Convenience
When you have a traditional two-tap set-up, you will open the hot water tap more fully than the cold water tap. You will have to stand and keep checking to get the right mix. Running the hot water and then adding cold water is a common technique. This can lead to dangerous situations if you have kids, elders or pets at home. Basin mixer taps let you easily find the optimal temperature and carry on with your task.
