Clearwater Auriga Single Lever Mono Kitchen Tap With Pull Out Spout

Simple, understated, but devilishly stylish and practical. Not often words that you would associate with a kitchen tap, but if anything, they don't do the Clearwater Auriga justice. The Auriga follows the current kitchen trend of having a pull out kitchen tap, although perhaps 'trend' is not the right word, as this suggests that the popularity of the pull out kitchen tap will soon wane - something that we don't predict happening unless someone invents something extraordinary, and we've seen no sign of this yet.

The Clearwater Auriga is available in a choice of 4 different colour/finish options, allowing you to coordinate your tap to your kitchen sink and worktop. So often tap manufacturers neglect those people that may have a white or black kitchen sink and would like a tap that isn't chrome, and if you're looking for a pullout kitchen tap, your choice is even more limited, so it's refreshing to see Clearwater do something a bit different.

There are many advantages with having a pull out tap like the Auriga. Most notable is their ability to aid in cleaning your kitchen sink, drainer and worktop area and thanks to the chrome-plated plastic tap spout and 700mm pull out hose length of the Auriga, almost all areas of your sink will be accessible to clean. One of the most overlooked benefits of a pull out kitchen tap is how it makes other cleaning tasks easier. How many times have you plonked an empty bucket in the sink, filled it up, and then struggled to remove it because it's too heavy or the tap's in the way? With the Auriga, there is no problem. Simply keep your bucket in the floor, pull out the extendable hose, point at the bucket, turn the tap on and fill away. To say it's a life-changer may be a little extreme, but it's certainly very handy.

As with all Clearwater taps, the Auriga uses ceramic disc cartridges to control the flow of water. These cartridges are tested for over 200,000 cycles before being approved for use within Clearwater taps. The Auriga is also WRAS approved, meaning that it has gone through extensive testing and it's guaranteed for 5 years.
