A few words should be said about the benefits of Franke products.

The products of this Swiss manufacturer (in particular, mixers) are distinguished by a number of positive qualities.

• The ceramic cartridge ensures the durability of the mixer’s locking mechanism.
• The divorces, sometimes resulting from cleaning, are not visible on the body, which is always chrome-plated.
• Single lever equipment scheme guarantees a high degree of ease of use.
• With the help of a high swivel spout, you can easily flush large items, for example, jug filters.

There is a widespread opinion that only two mixers are dispensed to the mixers - single and double lever.

In reality, they are divided into three types:

• two-valve;
• single lever;
• mixer thermostat.

Each of the types of peculiar and pros and cons. For example, the two-valve scheme of such plumbing is known to many of us from the Soviet time. This explains its great popularity.

Similar models have advantages:

• simple installation;
• easily carried out mini-repairs;
• ease of selection of the level of heating water;
• wear resistance and undemanding to the quality of the liquid, as tap water in Russia is disinfected with chlorine.

The Franke two-valve design is economical. For this reason, this equipment will easily take root in the apartment, which is equipped with water meters. The disadvantages of this scheme include a relatively inconvenient layout (it is necessary to rotate two knobs), as well as a relatively long selection of the desired water temperature.

Franke's single-lever faucet design is determined by fashion trends that have captured the modern market. They are, perhaps, ideal to use when washing dishes, opening the water with one motion (this is a very important nuance when cooking dishes).Unknown to many, the single-lever mixer circuit is highly sensitive to “heavy water”. For this reason, it is recommended to use softening filters in parallel, which helps prevent mixer wear and the absence of other possible malfunctions.
