For kitchen
Esko sanitary ware products, which are intended for use in the kitchen, offer two different categories: two-lever and single-lever. Consumers who decorate their retro-style interior often lean towards the choice of two-valve models.
Distinctive features of the kitchen faucet from the bathroom faucet are in a stronger water supply and external design. For a comfortable dishwashing it is necessary that water flows into the central part of the sink. A large role in this is played by the length of the spout spout. If the spout is high, the water will be dynamically sprayed in all directions.
But with a large number of dishes and large items of kitchen utensils too low spout will also cause inconvenience. In this regard, when buying a mixer, do not forget to take into account the depth of your wash.

The combined model contributes to the creation of a single structure from different elements. But the manufacturer claims that the cast models are provided with higher tightness, while the modular counterparts are characterized by comfortable control of the water supply.
