Form and Function for Kitchen and Bath

Beautiful plumbing fixtures are older than most people realize. As early as the 18th Century B.C., the Minoan Palace in Crete offered the king indoor plumbing with faucets of precious metals and marble. Technology has improved since then, so although the typical homeowner doesn’t enjoy the luxury of a gold spigot in the bathroom, he or she enjoys the even greater, more practical luxury of fine, functional faucets.

Single-handle faucets provide one-handed fine adjustment of water temperature. Aerators provide smooth flow and save water. Swivels, built-in hand-sprayers, and motion detectors enhance ease of use. All of these options can combine into a balance of luxury and economy to suit any price range.

The water needn’t even flow straight down, aerated or unaerated, like a traditional faucet. Horizontal or vertical sheets of water, including fountain styles, can provide function as well as beauty. Many fixtures change flow style to fit your changing needs.

For pure drinking water, modern faucets can include the latest in filtration technology. Instant hot water saves energy and time, whether for quick beverages or for speeding up that pot of pasta.

The look can be modern or retro, cosmopolitan or rustic, functional or lavishly artistic. Down to the finest detail, kitchen and bathroom fixtures enhance any style of room. Finishes are available in stainless steel, chrome, brass, ceramic, glass, plastic, wood, and yes, even gold, silver, and marble just like the ancient kings of Crete.

The possibilities are limitless. Qualified plumbing professionals such as All About the Pipes Plumbing Inc., can put the world of choices at anyone’s fingertips.
