Table top tap height for a 150mm high sink

[ToughButterCup]

I have one of these

 and need a single, table top (sometimes called deck mounted) mixer tap.

 

The sink height is 144mm.

 

Is there a recommended height for a tap for a sink of that height?

This sink is 160mm high so a bit taller. the tap is 330mm to the very top

Our basin is 170mm high and about 275mm from plughole to spout. Fitted a pressure regulator to hot and stop water splashing.

Thats very interesting @Temp. Thanks

If you have time, could I ask for a link to a pressure regulator please?

Sometimes it is handy to be able to get a mop bucket under the tap, so size height accordingly.

Think this is the sort of thing we have, it's a standard pressure reduction valve.

They usually come preset to 3bar but  there is a screw for adjustment, sometimes hidden under a warranty sticker.  I find they do need adjusting to increase flow rate a bit every few years. Perhaps because filter gets scaled up?

 

Honeywell is probably the best make.

Both hot and cold to my basins are fed from the PRV that came with the unvented cylinder.  The water pressure at the basin is just fine, at full tilt it does not spill out of the basin.
