In monobloc taps, hot and cold water are mixed and delivered through a
single spout. These require only one hole as they mix the incoming hot
and cold water in the body of the tap. To keep the look simple they
often come with a pop-up plug, which is tidier than a plug and chain. A
high quality range of monobloc taps are available in the market that are
suitable for basins and baths.
These taps fit only those sanitary ware having 'single hole' rather
than the more familiar 'two hole' configuration for separate hot and
cold taps. Made to an exceptionally high standard, monobloc taps are
widely used as they can save both water and energy.
