What Smart Upgrades Make Bathrooms Sleek and Saves Money? Bidets and Vessel Sinks With WaterSense Faucets

When a bathroom basin upgrade is desired, the purpose for the upgrade must be determined to figure how much to invest.  Maybe a complete upgrade is not feasible because of present day budgetary constraints.  However, small upgrades can not only make a bathroom more contemporary in the interim; it can help save money, over time, for a complete upgrade that creates a Spa bathroom to escape from work-related stresses.  The key is to invest in sleek fixtures with the latest technology that also conserves water to reduce water bills.

Bidets add a whole other dimension to a sleek bathroom upgrade because they are such an uncommon fixture in most bathrooms.  In fact, most people do not even know what it is or how to use it.  According to Kohler, "A bidet is a sit-down wash basin that's convenient and helps conserve water. Long considered to be a luxury item, bidets are becoming an increasingly common addition to the bath" (Kohler online).  In other words, similar to dual-flush toilets where the amount of water used for clean-up can be controlled based on solid waste and liquid waste, the water-pressure of bidets can also be controlled based on the amount of personal clean-up needed.  In both cases, unnecessary water waste is controlled based on a one size does not fit all approach to water pressure control.  Technology adjustments such as these can save thousands of gallons of water each year, resulting in huge savings on water bills, as well.  Immediately, this seems to be to be a better alternative where a small upgrade can curtail monetary waste on water bills.

Vessel sinks are a nice addition to any bathroom because it makes a broad range of traditional bathroom interiors more contemporary with just that one upgrade.  Bathroom technologies can include beautiful vessel sinks with matching vessel faucets spouting ribbon-patterned water that also meets WaterSense EPA criteria.  Based on personal preference, there are many shapes from which to choose such as rounded, rectangular or triangular.  Villeroy & Boch offers these three counter-top shapes in its beautiful Loop and Friends product line made of porcelain; while Danze's Ziga-Zaga product line offers oval shapes that sit on a platform base, adding to the unique designs of vessel sinks.   For even more variety, there are arrays of stone, glass, and stainless steel counter-top vessels that will also create a touch of elegance to any bathroom.    

So, if the desire is to upgrade to a sleek bathroom; however, budget constraints will not permit, then begin with small upgrades.  Bidets with water pressure-controlled personal cleansing systems and vessel sinks with matching vessel faucets that meet WaterSense EPA criteria will add a sleek look to any bathroom basin while the savings on water bills will help contribute to a complete upgrade in the future.
