How Do They Work And Do You Need Them?

A bath filler, also known as an overflow bath filler, works by regulating the flow of hot and cold water through a single point, making them an easy solution for filling up your bath.

The valve typically features a lever or knob for controlling the temperature and water flow, so you can easily adjust it to get a perfect balance. It also works as a way to fill up your bath without the water spilling over the edge.

For many homeowners, bath fillers are a must-have accessory as they can save time, water and energy when filling up their baths and provide an easy way to adjust the temperature. If you’re looking for more convenience in your bathroom, then a bath filler is definitely worth considering. 

Overflow Bath Fillers Vs Bath Taps

Bath overflow fillers and bath taps are often confused, but they perform different functions. Here are the main differences between them:

Function

Bath overflow fillers are designed to help regulate the flow of water coming into your bathtub.

When installed, they will control the temperature and pressure for filling a tub with hot or cold water. On the other hand, bath taps are used to turn the water on and off – but not to regulate its flow and sometimes temperature.

Connection Type

Bath overflow fillers’ connection type is typically a single tap, whereas bath taps usually have two separate outlets for hot and cold water.

This means that if you have a bath tap, you’ll need two separate taps for hot and cold water – one on either side of the tub. However, if you choose an overflow bath filler, only one tap will be necessary.

Installation

Bath overflow fillers are usually quite straightforward to install, while bath taps can be trickier. It’s important to note that when installing either type of fixture, you will likely need the help of a professional plumber.

However, bath taps and overflow fillers can both be installed on the side of the bath or through a wall-mounted design.

Appearance

Bath overflow fillers are designed to be unobtrusive, blending in with the design of any bathroom seamlessly. Meanwhile, bath taps usually stand out more due to their dual fittings and size. As a result, they may clash with the design of your bathroom if not chosen carefully.

Price

Bath overflow fillers are generally more affordable than bath taps. This is because they have fewer components and simpler installation requirements.

Additionally, since they are a new addition to many homes, they are often offered at lower prices than their more established counterparts.

Benefits Of Having A Bath Filler

Having a bath overflow filler can be beneficial in many ways. Here are some of the advantages they provide:

Time-Saving

No need to fiddle with two taps and time-consuming adjustments - an overflow bath filler lets you set your desired temperature and pressure, allowing you to fill up your tub in no time.

Saves Water

Bath fillers are designed to optimize water flow, meaning less wasted water than if you were using separate taps for hot and cold water. This helps to save on bills while also being more eco-friendly.

Minimalistic Design

Bath fillers are the perfect way to add a stylish and modern touch to your bathroom décor. With their sleek design, these fillers take up minimal space while still adding an eye-catching element that won't distract from the overall look of your bathroom.

Different Bath Filler Finishes

Bath fillers come in various finishes to match existing bathroom fixtures, including chrome, brass, nickel and more. A VOS brushed brass, for example, is a great option if you want to add a touch of sophistication to your bath.

Additionally, they are designed to blend in with the design of your bathroom, so you can easily find a product that will perfectly complement the rest of your space.

Plus, many bath fillers feature anti-corrosion materials to help them stay looking brand new for years. It’s important to choose the right finish that will match your bathroom fixtures, so you can be sure it will look great and last a long time.

Bath Fillers And Water Pressure

Initially, an overflow filler is designed to work only with a high-pressure system. However, many products now come with adjustable flow and pressure settings – so even if your bathroom has a low-pressure system, you can find a bath filler that works for you.

Additionally, knowing the water pressure of your home’s water system is essential before you purchase a bath filler, so be sure to check this out first.

A high-pressure unvented system usually only has a hot water cylinder and no cold water tank. On the other hand, a gravity-fed water system usually has a hot water cylinder and a cold water tank, which is why you’ll need a bath tap if you have this type of system.

However, it has been proven that you can fit a bath filler with a low minimum pressure rating in a high-pressure system, making it more flexible and convenient.

But using a bath filler with a minimum water pressure that’s higher than your home’s plumbing can cause problems, so always check the pressure before you purchase.

At Posh, we have a range of bath fillers to suit any bathroom. Whether you’re looking for a VOS brushed black bath filler or a modern different colour chrome finish, our store is sure to have something just right for your space.
