These are taps called &#8220;male&#8221;, a system based on the rotation of a drilled cylinder which allowed the water to escape.<\/p>\n<p>Under the Roman era there was a real industrial activity linked to the production of taps, known at the time by the name of <em>valvulae<\/em>. already during the Roman era there were mixers as a household object useful for the supply of cold and hot water. A system considered at the time a true innovation.<\/p>\n<p>The diffusion of the tap will continue in the following centuries, always in the &#8220;male&#8221; variant. In most cases the taps were used for large wine barrels and for regulating liquids stored in large containers.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>The screw taps<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>In 1800, the invention of the screw tap was introduced. A modern system that was able to adjust the flow of water. It will become commonplace, thanks to the development in water distribution homes.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Single-lever mixers<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>By the end of the seventies of the twentieth century, however, a new type of system began to spread: the ceramic disc single-lever mixer.
