Outdoor living spaces, which are more than a deck or a patio, are becoming the latest in ideas for home renovations. These areas, which may include an outdoor kitchen, dining space and general relaxation area are ideal for any size of home or yard. To add to the convenience of outdoor cooking, adding portable outdoor sinks makes them extremely practical.
The Benefit of Outdoor Sinks
The main drawback to these outdoor living spaces is the lack of a practical way to have water; that is unless you consider the option of portable outdoor sinks. Running plumbing and drainage systems not only increases the cost of the renovation, but it may also require a significant amount of digging in and around your landscaping.
By choosing portable outdoor sinks designed specifically for use outdoors you can have running water, either cold or hot and cold, saving you the need to carry water back and forth but preventing you from the added expense of a permanent sink installation. Some manufacturers even provide an easy adaptor to provide the option to hook up the garden hose for continual water.
Outdoor Construction
There are several options in portable outdoor sinks to consider. One option is a stainless steel design that will be resistant to moisture, rain, and even from any damage caused by direct exposure to sunlight.
Look for a manufacturer making portable outdoor sinks out of an anti-bacterial polymer and not wood. Wood will eventually rot and will become ragged looking as the laminate begins to peel. With a polymer, the surface will remain smooth and in perfect condition even when exposed to the rain or the sun.
For a more natural look that blends into the wood, brick or stone design of your outdoor living space you may want to consider a neutral colored cabinet. This will match your decor and with options for one or more sinks and hot and cold running water you will wonder what you ever did before you the unit. You can also choose power sources from a foot operated pump for cold water sinks to a full electric model for hot and cold water.
Another advantage to portable outdoor sinks is that they don’t have to stay outside year round or even all season. Lightweight and on casters, it is easy to roll these units into the home or garage for protective storage when not in use.
