Ok, it won’t cook for you, but it will give you touchless and manual functionality along with precise temperature control all in one kitchen faucet.

 

Hybrid kitchen faucets can be operated both manually and through the touchless sensor. Hybrid kitchen faucets can be operated both manually and through the touchless sensor.

 

This situation may be familiar: you’re making a meal, hands covered in grease, the children between your legs with the dog chasing after them, and now you need to stir the sauce – preferably with clean hands. It’s precisely for this and many other types of situations that a touchless faucet for the kitchen offers the best solution.

They've long been in use in public buildings, but touchless faucets are becoming more and more popular in private homes and are suitable for any household – from families to elderly to single. Through a touchless sensor, you get on-demand water at a pre-set temperature that shuts off automatically when you take your hands away. It also saves water and, most importantly, reduces the spread of harmful bacteria via surface contact.

“Our hybrid faucet has made kitchen life much more convenient – and we saved kitchen water consumption by 17%.”

- The Henriksson Family, Ingarö, Sweden

But what about those occasions you need to run the water for an extended duration? For instance, when filling up the sink or a large pot of water, or when your children have been painting – on themselves? Having to constantly hold your hands, or someone else’s, by the sensor can be a frustrating and inefficient way to go about it. In those cases, the tried and true lever faucet still proves its usefulness. And, since the touchless option is generally set at a warmer temperature, it also comes in handy for a cool glass of water to drink.

Oras Optima kitchen faucet has two lever – one for hot and other for cold water.  When using the touchless function, the water temperature can be pre-set to a temperature suitable for washing hands.

A kitchen faucet that brings the best of both worlds

In those cases, and many others, a hybrid kitchen faucet with sensor offers the best of both worlds – the benefits of touchless with the practicality of single lever – and gives users the perfect solution for any dilemma in the kitchen, be it food or human-related.

Oras Optima hybrid kitchen faucets come in two designs, one with a highly flexible spout and two spray option, or as a lower spout version. They're simple to install, and households can choose between a plug-in power supply or a battery-operated version. The batteries last 3-5 years and are easily replaced without the need for a professional.

Each design features separate cold and hot water levers, a touchless function and a digital temperature display that warns by blinking when the water becomes hot. The high-swivel spout also offers extra room under the faucet for those needing a little more flexibility in the kitchen.
