Bidet Tap
Shop quality bidet taps online at Taps Online. Discover stylish bidet mixer taps designed specifically for modern and traditional bathroom bidets, with a choice of finishes to complement your basin taps, bath taps, shower and other bathroom brassware.
A bidet tap is more than simply a small basin tap. It is specifically designed to provide controlled, directional water flow into a bidet, making the correct spout design, tap height, water pressure and installation configuration important considerations when choosing your new fitting.
Whether you are replacing an existing bidet tap, completing a traditional bathroom renovation or installing a new contemporary bathroom, our collection makes it easier to find the right bidet tap for your bathroom.
Find the Right Bidet Tap for Your Bathroom
Bidet taps are available in a variety of styles, configurations and finishes. Choosing the right model starts with understanding your bidet and how the tap will be installed.
Bidet Mixer Taps
Bidet mixer taps combine hot and cold water through a single tap body, allowing you to control both water temperature and flow from one fitting.
Most modern bidet mixer taps are designed for single-hole installation and feature a single lever for convenient operation. Many also incorporate a directional or adjustable aerator, allowing the water flow to be positioned accurately within the bidet bowl.
A bidet mixer is an excellent choice for contemporary bathrooms where ease of use, clean styling and precise water control are important.
Traditional Bidet Taps
For classic, period and heritage-inspired bathrooms, traditional bidet taps provide a coordinated finishing touch.
Traditional designs can feature crosshead or lever handles, curved spouts and classic metallic finishes that complement traditional sanitaryware.
If you are creating a complete period-style bathroom, coordinate your bidet taps with matching traditional basin taps, bath taps, shower fittings and bathroom accessories for a consistent appearance throughout the room.
Modern Bidet Taps
Modern bidet taps typically feature clean lines, streamlined bodies and simple single-lever controls.
Contemporary designs work particularly well with modern wall-hung and floor-standing bidets and can be coordinated with minimalist basin mixers, bath fillers and showers.
For a contemporary bathroom, consider the tap's height, spout reach and finish as well as its operating pressure requirements.
Bidet Taps with Adjustable Aerators
Many bidet mixer taps incorporate an adjustable or directional aerator at the end of the spout.
This allows the direction of the water to be adjusted so that it flows into the appropriate area of the bidet bowl rather than directly onto the ceramic or towards the rim.
A directional aerator can be particularly useful when replacing an existing bidet tap because bidets can vary in shape and dimensions.
Bidet Taps with Waste
Some bidet taps are supplied as a complete set with a matching pop-up waste, while other bidet mixer taps are supplied separately.
If your bidet requires a waste, check whether the tap includes one before ordering. You should also check whether the bidet has an overflow and whether the waste needs to be slotted or unslotted.
Buying a matching tap and waste can help create a more coordinated appearance and can simplify the process of selecting compatible bathroom brassware.
How to Choose a Bidet Tap
Before buying a new bidet tap, consider these important points:
1. Does your bidet have a tap hole?
Most conventional bidets are designed for a single deck-mounted bidet mixer, but always check the size and configuration of the tap hole before ordering.
2. Is the tap designed specifically for a bidet?
A purpose-designed bidet tap typically has a spout and aerator configuration intended to direct water into the bidet bowl. A standard basin mixer may not provide the same directional control.
3. What water pressure do you have?
Check the minimum and maximum operating pressure specified for the tap. This is particularly important if your home has a gravity-fed system or relatively low water pressure.
4. Does the spout reach correctly into the bidet?
The water should discharge into the appropriate area of the bidet bowl without striking the rim unnecessarily. Check the tap's spout projection and overall height against the dimensions of your bidet.
5. Do you need a waste?
Check whether your bidet tap includes a matching waste or whether this needs to be purchased separately. Make sure the waste specification matches the bidet's overflow arrangement.
6. Which finish suits your bathroom?
Consider coordinating the bidet tap with your basin tap, bath taps, shower, wastes and bathroom accessories.
Bidet Tap Finishes
A bidet tap is a relatively small fitting, but choosing the right finish can make a significant difference to the overall appearance of your bathroom.
Popular finishes include:
- Chrome bidet taps – bright, versatile and timeless.
- Brushed brass bidet taps – warm and contemporary.
- Polished brass bidet taps – luxurious and particularly effective in traditional bathrooms.
- Polished nickel bidet taps – elegant with a softer appearance than chrome.
- Brushed nickel bidet taps – understated and sophisticated.
- Matt black bidet taps – distinctive and contemporary.
- Traditional brass finishes – ideal for period and heritage-inspired bathrooms.
Where possible, coordinate the finish of your bidet tap with the other brassware in your bathroom. Using complementary finishes across your basin taps, bath taps, shower and accessories creates a more cohesive design.
Bidet Taps for Low Water Pressure
Water pressure should always be considered when choosing a bidet tap.
Some bidet mixers are designed to operate effectively at relatively low pressure, while others require a higher minimum operating pressure. The exact requirement varies between products.
If your bathroom has a gravity-fed hot water system, low water pressure may be a consideration. Homes with combination boilers or unvented hot water systems may have different pressure characteristics.
Always check the individual product specification for the minimum and maximum operating pressure before purchasing.
If you are unsure what water pressure you have, check your system before choosing a bidet mixer.
Bidet Tap Installation & UK Water Regulations
Bidet installations require particular attention to backflow protection because the water outlet can potentially come into contact with contaminated water.
UK water regulations distinguish between different bidet configurations and the level of backflow protection required. Where a bidet has an ascending spray, hose handset or an outlet that can become submerged, additional backflow protection may be required. Single-flow mixer taps also have specific requirements depending on the installation and tap-gap arrangement.
For this reason, bidet taps should be installed in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions and applicable UK Water Regulations. If you are unsure about the correct installation or backflow protection requirements, we recommend using a suitably qualified plumbing professional.
This is particularly important when installing or replacing a bidet in an existing bathroom, as the correct water-supply arrangement should be established before the work begins.
Traditional & Contemporary Bidet Taps
The style of your bidet tap should complement the wider design of your bathroom.
For a traditional bathroom, consider classic bidet mixers with curved spouts, crosshead or lever handles and heritage-inspired finishes. These work particularly well with traditional ceramic bidets, roll-top baths and classic bathroom furniture.
For a contemporary bathroom, minimalist single-lever bidet mixers with clean lines and streamlined spouts can provide a modern, coordinated appearance.
Whichever style you choose, consider matching the finish and design with the rest of your bathroom brassware.
