Wall mounted faucets are an old fashioned feature that’s seeing renewed life in both the kitchen and the bathroom. These sleek faucets run the gamut from old fashioned farmhouse style to extremely minimalist and modern. Because they’re not as common as they once were, they have a very elegant, designer feel. But installing a wall mounted faucet can be much more difficult than installing a more common deck-mounted sink; there are a few challenges you should be aware of before you take the plunge. <\/p>\n\n\n

In theory, wall mounted faucets shouldn’t be any more difficult to install than any other type of faucet. Unfortunately, this couldn’t be further from the truth; installing a faucet on the wall introduces a whole host of unique problems which, while not insurmountable, do complicate the situation somewhat. For starters, faucets are generally one of the last things you install during a major remodel. But with a wall mounted faucet, you’ll need to install the hardware at the very beginning of construction, before you do any other work to the wall. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

You can install a standard faucet directly into pre-drilled holes in the sink or counter, but wall mounted faucets don’t come with a pre-made guide. That means you need to have everything on hand – the faucet and plumbing, the sink, drywall, backsplash tile, and anything else that might impact the way the faucet sits in relation to the sink – to get the closest estimate possible before<\/em> any installation happens. Perhaps the worst part, though, is that wall mounted faucets have to be installed in between two wall studs. If the studs on the wall behind the sink in question don’t line up properly, you’ll need to move them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n

Just as important as getting the spacing right is installing the faucet at the right height. The tip of the nozzle legally must be at least one inch above the level of the sink, and generally a little higher than that is more comfortable to use. That said, the higher you place the faucet the more difficult it can be to control where the water goes when you turn it on. In other words, the more likely it is to splash. There’s no set standard for how high to install a wall mounted faucet, and unfortunately there also isn’t much room for trial and error, as you’ll need to install the mounting hardware before you can hook up (and test) the faucet itself. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n

Depending on whether you’re buying for the kitchen<\/a> or bathroom<\/a> and what kind of sink you’re considering, wall mounted faucets come in a few different lengths. Deck mounted faucets are usually more or less the same, standard depth. But wall mounted faucets can be 6, 9, or 12 inches long to accommodate both a variety of sinks and a variety of installation settings. Wall mounted faucets have to clear not only the rim of the sink but also any distance between the wall and the sink. That means they often have to be much longer to line up properly. <\/p>\n\n\n

Splashing<\/h2>\n\n

Probably the biggest complaint about wall mounted faucets in both the kitchen and the bathroom is that they can be much more prone to splashing. You typically install deck-mounted faucet into pre-drilled holes, so the faucet lines up with the drain every time. But striking the right balance of height, depth, and alignment is harder without those standard drillings. Unusual or above-counter sinks<\/a> and waterfall-style faucets can make this even more complicated. If you install the sink just a little too far in any one direction, the water can strike the sink at an odd angle, causing it to splash and spatter. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n

Installing a wall mounted faucet on an exterior wall (which may not be allowed in all areas – be sure to check your local code) presents its own unique set of issues. If you live in a colder climate, the plumbing is much more exposed to the elements and can be more susceptible to freezing. It’s important to ensure that all the hardware is properly insulated, and be aware of the risk – especially when very cold weather hits. <\/p>\n\n\n

Long spouts help make up for the further-back placement of wall mounted sinks. But be aware that the actual faucet controls will almost always be right up against the wall. This might not seem like a huge difference, but can be an accessibility issue, depending on the layout of your space. If small children (or anyone with a similarly short reach) will be using the sink, those few inches can put the handles out of reach. Similarly, if you plan to pair a wall mounted faucet with a very large kitchen sink<\/a>, the depth of the two combined can make the whole setup a little uncomfortable to use. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n

Last but not least, while replacing a standard faucet is an extremely simple, DIY-friendly job, once you’ve installed a wall mounted faucet, it really is there to stay. The plumbing is built and usually tiled into the wall. That means that to replace your faucet, at the very least you’ll have to rip out and replace the backsplash<\/a>, too. This isn’t just an issue of changing styles, either: the same applies if the faucet breaks down. You really, really want to make sure that the faucet you buy is very high quality with a solid brass construction, to extend the life of the faucet. And do your research: purchasing a faucet from a reputable, well-known company that readily supplies replacement parts can mean the difference between being able to repair a faucet and having to replace a whole wall. <\/p>\n\n\n

All that said, the challenges presented by wall mounted faucets aren’t insurmountable. Knowing what they are before you start the project is the best way to minimize many of them. Wall mounted faucets have a gorgeous appearance that’s both trendy and timeless, and for many are worth the extra effort. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
