The BENLIVE BLV-21171-GOLD is a premium, high-profile ceiling-mount basin faucet designed for modern luxury bathrooms. Part of the Premium Balhwave series, this fixture combines an elegant aesthetic with durable engineering.
The model BLV-21171-GOLD is a ceiling-mount basin faucet
from the brand BENLIVE, finished in an elegant gold tone. This faucet is
specifically designed to be installed from the ceiling above a basin rather
than from the wall or countertop, making it an excellent choice for modern
bathrooms, high-end hotels, or commercial settings where a clean, minimalist
look is desired. The unit functions as a hot and cold mixer, allowing the user
to adjust water temperature smoothly.
Materials and Construction
The main body of the faucet is constructed from solid brass,
a material valued for its durability, resistance to corrosion, and ability to
hold a high-quality finish over many years. The tube or spout section is made
from stainless steel, which provides additional strength and resistance to
rust. The entire exterior is plated in a gold finish, giving the faucet a
luxurious and decorative appearance that can complement a range of interior
design styles, from classic to contemporary.
Dimensions and Installation Requirements
The faucet has an overall height of 1687.5 millimeters,
which is approximately 1.69 meters or 5.54 feet. This unusually tall height
indicates that the faucet is intended for ceiling mounting in rooms with
standard or elevated ceilings, and it will hang down significantly to reach the
basin below. Installation requires a single hole in the ceiling through which
the water supply and the faucet body are fitted. The connection thread is G1/2,
a standard half-inch BSP thread that is compatible with most flexible supply
hoses or rigid plumbing adapters.
Internal Mechanism and Operation
Inside the faucet, a ceramic cartridge controls the flow and
mixing of hot and cold water. Ceramic cartridges are known for their smooth,
precise operation and long service life, as they resist wear and are less
likely to develop drips or leaks compared to rubber washers. The user can
adjust the handle to increase or decrease flow and to blend hot and cold water
to achieve the desired temperature.
Working Pressure Range
The faucet is designed to operate within a working pressure
range of 0.05 to 0.6 MPa. For practical reference, this equals 0.5 to 6 bar, or
approximately 7.25 to 87 PSI. The lower limit of 0.05 MPa means the faucet can
function even with low-pressure water supply systems, such as gravity-fed
tanks. The upper limit of 0.6 MPa makes it suitable for most standard household
mains pressure systems without risk of damage.
Warranty
The faucet comes with a warranty period of two years from
the date of purchase. This warranty typically covers manufacturing defects, any
failure of the ceramic cartridge, and deterioration of the gold finish under
normal residential or commercial use. The warranty does not cover damage
resulting from improper installation, misuse, excessive water pressure above
0.6 MPa, or damage caused by abrasive or chemical cleaning agents.
