Choosing to Replace or Install? Use These Tips!

Even a little leakage can add up to a big water bill. We install new bathroom and kitchen faucets, and stop drips.

If you’ll be keeping your current sink cabinet, choose a faucet type that matches the hole openings in the counter. Make sure the faucet’s size suits your sink size. If you have kids or elderly family members, choose a faucet easy to use, such as a single-handle, lever, or hands-free model.

Consider style and finish. Ideally, your choice should coordinate with your other bathroom fixtures and surfaces. For a modern look, try polished nickel, matte black, or the standard polished chrome. To create a vintage or rustic feel, copper, brass, and hammered nickel are good choices.

Look for faucets with the WaterSense label. These faucets use at least 30% less water than standard models, yet perform just as reliably.

One of the easiest ways to lower indoor water consumption is by using low-flow aerators on the faucets in the kitchen and bathrooms. These are widely available at home improvement centers and simply screw on to replace the existing aerators.

Why You Shouldn’t Ignore a Leaky Faucet

At Apollo Home, we understand that a working plumbing system requires effective plumbing fixtures. If you’re experiencing a frustrating, leaky faucet and you can’t bear to hear the drip-drip-drip of your sink any longer, we can bring you the seamless faucet replacement and installation services you need. Here are a few reasons why you should never ignore a leaky faucet:

•  Waste of water. Just three drops per minute wastes nearly 157 gallons of water annually. Likewise, there are more than a trillion gallons of water wasted from households in the U.S. every year.
• Increased utility bills. Water wasted from leaky faucets can significantly drive up your home’s water bill.
• Threaten structural damage. Pooling water can lead to wood rot or mold growth, while water dripping from the tap can corrode the metal in your sink and drain.
• Decrease the service life of your appliances. If your sink experiences wood rot, mold growth, or corrosion, it will likely have much shorter service life.
