Commercial Faucets

Commercial Faucets in Toronto & Canada

Not every station needs the same faucet — what's mounted over a three-compartment sink shouldn't look like what's bolted to a hand sink or a bar rail. For scraping food off dishes before they hit the dishwasher, our Phoenix Standard Duty and Heavy Duty pre-rinse lines cover most kitchens, and T&S Brass adds a name-brand step up for a dish pit running all day. A simpler swing neck faucet is enough for a mop sink or prep sink, where all you need is running water, not a scrubbing spray. Hand sinks need their own dedicated faucet too, like the Phoenix GNHF-4 Standard Duty Quick Turn Wall Mounted Hand Sink Faucet or BK Resources BKF-W-3G-G Quick Turn Wall Mounted Hand Sink Faucet, and a touchless option like the Phoenix Heavy Duty Sensor Faucet cuts down on cross-contamination. Behind the bar, a glass or pitcher rinser from Phoenix or Rhino keeps glassware and pitchers rinsed between pours without tying up a sink. No matter where you're located — a diner in Toronto, a banquet hall in Mississauga, or right here in Vaughan — Phoenix Food Equipment gets commercial faucets to you across the GTA and nationwide across Canada.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions we hear from operators.

What's the difference between a pre-rinse faucet and a standard swing neck faucet?

A pre-rinse faucet pairs a swing spout with a spray valve on a flexible hose, letting staff blast food debris off plates and pans before they go through the dishwasher — ours range from the Phoenix Standard Duty Pre-Rinse Faucet with Add on Spout for lighter-volume kitchens up to the Phoenix Heavy Duty Pre-Rinse Faucet with Add on Swing Neck and the T&S Brass Easy Install Pre-Rinse Faucet for a dish pit running non-stop. A swing neck faucet skips the spray valve and hose — it's just a fixed, gooseneck-style spout, better suited to a mop sink or prep sink where all you need is running water. If the sink sees food scraps before dishwashing, a pre-rinse unit earns its keep; if it's just for filling pots or rinsing hands, a swing neck faucet is simpler and cheaper.

Do I need a sensor (touchless) faucet in my kitchen?

A sensor faucet turns on automatically when hands or a pot pass in front of it and shuts off on its own, which cuts down on staff touching a handle with dirty or gloved hands between tasks — a real advantage at a busy handwashing station or prep sink where cross-contamination is a genuine risk. Our Phoenix Heavy Duty Sensor Faucet handles that at a hand sink, and the matching Phoenix HGNF-SENS-MIXV Sensor Faucet Mixing Valve lets you dial in a consistent water temperature rather than adjusting it manually. Sensor faucets aren't required by most health codes the way a three-compartment sink is, but plenty of kitchens add them at handwashing stations specifically to make it easier for staff to actually wash up between tasks.

What's a glass or pitcher rinser used for?

A glass or pitcher rinser sits at the bar and gives staff a quick blast of water to rinse out a glass or pitcher between pours, without walking it over to a sink or tying up the ice well. Our Phoenix GRDI-145 Drop-In Glass Rinser with Drain mounts flush into the bar top, the Phoenix GRCT-110 Counter Top Glass Rinser with Drain & Holder sits on top for bars without room to cut a hole, and the Rhino Pitcher Rinser With Spinjet steps up to a stronger spray built for rinsing full pitchers rather than single glasses. Busy bars and breweries running a lot of draft pours lean on one of these to keep glassware turning over fast without adding extra sink trips.
