Spouts
Aerated spouts are those that mix air with the water, and are constructed using a screen and restrictor that limit the amount and flow of water while improving water pressure. Non-aerated spouts — constructed without a screen so that the water flows freely, producing a waterfall effect — are more likely to splash if the pitch allows water to hit the side of the basin.

Handles
There are many handle shapes to choose from, including decorative ring-type cylinders, round, cross, levers, and electronic touchless. Whatever your design preference, consider how convenient the handles will be when you're actually using them with soapy hands.

Styles
Bath sink faucets are not only available in many types, they also come in a wide range of styles. For a traditional or country décor, choose faucets in polished brass, nickel, or pewter with porcelain accents and cross handles. Contemporary faucet styles may feature a pullout spray in white or a matte chrome finish, while gooseneck spouts and lever handles add convenience and function to any style faucet.
