Produktbeschreibung

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! A plumbing fixture is a device which is part of a system to deliver and drain away water, but which is also configured to enable a particular use. Tapware is an industry term for that sub-category of plumbing fixtures consisting of water taps (British English) or faucets (American English) and their accessories such as water spouts and shower heads. Each of these plumbing fixtures has one or more water outlets and a drain. In some cases, the drain has a device that can be manipulated to block the drain to fill the basin of the fixture. Each fixture also has a flood rim, or level at which water will begin to overflow. Most fixtures also have an overflow, which is a conduit for water to drain away, when the regular drain is plugged, before the water actually overflows at the flood rim level. However, water closets and showers (that are not in bathtubs) usually lack this feature because their drains normally cannot be stopped.
