Whilst you may have a specific interior lead idea as to the exact taps that you want to include in your bathroom, it’s important to remember that not all taps on the market will work in your home. Water pressure plays a huge role in the efficiency of your taps, and ensuring you understand both what kind of water pressure your home has, and which brassware will work inline with this, is important.
