The popular high-arc, dual function Venuto ® Pull-Down Kitchen Faucet by Brizo ® is now enhanced to include SmartTouch water-saving technology. Venuto was designed with the philosophy that a faucet should be both beautiful and functional. The strong lines and geometric appearance become a focal point in any kitchen. The Venuto with SmartTouch offers the same contemporary, Zen-influenced design as the original model with the added benefit of touch technology. SmartTouch technology is perfectly designed for cooking enthusiasts, as it allows homeowners to easily turn the faucet on and off by tapping anywhere on the handle or spout, in addition to the handle pull method. SmartTouch makes it easier to turn off the water flow when hands are messy or when water flow is not needed between tasks, saving water and energy. For added functionality, Venuto features the Brizo MagneDock ® magnetic docking technology, which utilizes a powerful magnet to securely lock the wand into the faucet spout. The Venuto pull-down kitchen faucet with SmartTouch is available in both kitchen and bar/prep models in Polished Chrome and Brilliance ® Stainless finishes. The faucet can accommodate two-hole or three-hole installation options. A uniquely styled soap/lotion dispenser and a coordinating bud vase are also available in matching finishes, allowing homeowners to extend the design appearance throughout the sink area.
Awards
