Handy Kitchen Plumbing Upgrades
Being a whizz in the kitchen doesn’t require you to be a professional chef. Making your kitchen more functional and efficient improves your overall cooking experience and brings joy to your meals. For those spending even more time in their kitchen each year who want cooking, cleaning, and hanging out to come easier, consider upgrading these areas of your kitchen plumbing:
Upgrade an inefficient faucet
Whether you’re looking for a more straightforward way to wash your vegetables or want to conserve more water, there are many options available when upgrading your kitchen faucet. A favorite among homeowners is the Delta Touch Faucet, where you can touch any part of the faucet to turn it on and touch again to turn it off. Messy hands are a thing of the past with new technologies in the kitchen. For those who want to upgrade but aren’t looking for such an advanced faucet, consider installing a water-conserving faucet such as the Pfister Wheaton Single in Stainless Steel or Tuscan Bronze.
Install a water filtration system
Water filtration systems were expensive and inaccessible to most homeowners as little as a decade ago. Today, water filters come in many shapes and sizes and fit within any budget. Since we believe in getting a good deal while also getting the job done, installing a water filtration system in your home will improve your day-to-day life and protect your plumbing system from corrosion. Improved water quality plus a longer lifespan on plumbing fixtures and appliances is a win-win in our book.
Depending on your needs, you can opt for a reverse-osmosis system that removes contaminants from your water supply or add a small attachment to filter water as it comes through your faucet. There are even whole-house systems that are a bit pricier but will not only improve the quality of your drinking water but also what’s flowing to your showers and tubs, as well.
Replace your dishwasher
If your dishes are still dirty at the end of the dishwasher cycle, it may be time for an upgrade. While it may be that you need to replace the aging appliance, sometimes, hard water or too much dishwasher detergent can be the culprit of murky dishes, so don’t run to the appliance store just yet. However, if you rule out hard water and use the right amount of dishwashing detergent, your dishwasher may be heading towards its last cycle.
Other reasons to replace your appliance are as follows:
Create more room in your kitchen with a space-saving dishwasher.
Get fancy features such as intelligent touch, personalized settings, hard food disposal, or extra jets to wash your water bottles, and more.
Save on water and electric bills by using an energy-efficient washer.
Also, get a quieter appliance if you like running it at night or just don’t want to hear it running during mealtime or your favorite movie.
Upgrading the fixtures and appliances in the home often comes with immediate benefits. In addition, replacing old appliances with more energy-efficient options even before they need swapping out saves on your finances. Lastly, you don’t need to invest in a complete kitchen to get back to enjoying your kitchen.
