Do people usually install normal laundry or basin tap in their bath? Re: Bath Tap 2Jun 11, 2012 5:58 pm AubinGroveFan Was looking at bath tap and noticed that all bath taps are one-positioned taps.

Most people seem to fit one position heads. I personally dont see the need / point of a swivel head. It would just allow my kids to fill the bathroom up with water! What about a waterfall tap?

We are thinking of getting a Scala spa set (available from Reece) mainly because it has a 295mm reach and this will suit the bath we want. I'm sure it is swivel but when I looked at the brochure there is no mention of it. I saw several swivel bath taps when I was searching the internet for one (took me hours), but unfortunately didn't save the links. I'm no tap expert but I think basin taps are WELS rated so the flow will be restricted, bath taps are not, so best to ask. Keep trying, they are out there.

This does depend also on what style and how far out the spout extends too of course. You just have to teach the little buggers to return it to the "out" postion and to clean up after themselves when they have finished !

I suppose it also depends on the spout; ours is almost to the side of the bath, so it's not in the way, but due to the design, water shoots to the centre of the bath.

Its a floor stand that comes over one of the corners so doesnt get in the way at all.

Because some spouts stick out over the bath more than others thereby being able to be hit a lot easier by kids playing in the bath. Most people seem to choose their spouts and taps according to what they look like and the safety issue seems to take a back seat in their choice.
