The bathroom faucets you choose for both your bathtub and shower need to really meet the needs and necessities of your everyday life. Although you May feel there is no real difference between the bath faucet you choose versus the shower faucet, you’d be surprised of the selection involved and which bath faucets are right for you. There are bathtub faucets specifically designed for Roman tubs, whirlpool bathtubs and claw foot tubs. You want to make sure the bath faucet has a curved neck so it can really deliver full pressure when needed, and depending on the size of the bathtub, it will also play into the style of bath faucet you choose. Some other things to consider when selecting bath faucets is if you have a small bathroom, if you live in a luxury home or have a growing family or even if you are trying to coordinate your home to have a certain tone, or mood.

Bath shower faucets also play a large part in your everyday lifestyle. Would you like a high pressure, large, flat shower head with a coordinating turn knob like Delta’s Pressure-Balanced Series?

Shower heads play a huge role in shower faucets because oftentimes, they are paired together and come in a variety of styles, from modern to Victorian and have many finishes (chrome and polished brass are popular choices).

Here are some things to consider when choosing your bath shower faucet:

• Steam showers are great for those who like the instant warmth from the steam and want to create a Zen-like atmosphere to their bathroom.

Moen’s vertical spa sets are easy to customize with large shower heads and five function transfer valves that even includes a hand shower. Or try a waterfall shower faucet to go along with the waterfall bath faucet in your master bathroom.
• Your shower filter needs to be cleaned and changed periodically. Each shower filter has a different amount of lifespan so check with the manufacturer for a rating. A good time-span is 6 months to a year. Pegasus’ high-pressure shower heads usually only need to be changed annually.
• Shower chairs are used for those who are unable to stand for long period of time or for small toddlers. Look for a shower faucet that can meet the individuals’ needs, such as a pullout spray shower head.
