Faucet Design types
Before calling us at Miami 24/7 plumbing, there is a need to first know the type of faucet designs you have in your homes or places of work. There are four basic types of faucet designs namely ball faucet (the handle is used to move a ball inside the faucet to control the movement of water, commonly used in the kitchen), Cartridge Faucet (a faucet that is controlled by a movable stem cartridge that when you turn the knob, moves up and down to control water flow), Disc faucet (a disc faucet have a handle on top of a wide cylindrical body.

This type of faucet is old designs).
When to replace your faucet
A faucet replacement is not carried out only when the whole cartridge breaks down, a faucet also needs replacement when:

- When the efficiency of the faucet is low and you want a better one
- If the faucet is very old or rusty
- When you start seeing visible mineral deposits
