Valve System

Another detail that can effect the bottom-line cost of a faucet is its valve system. You are probably familiar with the maintenance issue of the rubber washer system. However, faucets with "old fashioned" washers may be more reasonably priced than the newer washerless faucets. With today's technology, washerless faucets are considered maintenance-free. You can determine which faucet valve system fits best into your budget and lifestyle.
