Roca L20 High-Neck Single-Lever Basin Faucet, Cold Start, XL Handle, Pop-Up Waste, Evershine Chrome, 1.2 GPM

Description

The Roca L20 is the high-neck expression of one of Roca’s most innovative faucet collections and the elevation is both literal and figurative. Standing taller than a standard basin faucet, the L20’s high-neck profile creates the clearance needed for deeper vessel basins and countertop sinks, while its clean, geometric silhouette brings a quiet architectural confidence to any bathroom surface it occupies.

But the L20 is not simply a taller faucet. It carries the full technology suite of Roca’s L20 collection; Cold Start energy saving, Soft Turn ceramic cartridge, Evershine chrome surface treatment, and a WaterSense-certified 1.2 GPM flow rate in a format designed for the contemporary bathroom that refuses to separate aesthetics from responsibility.

Cold Start is the technology that changes the faucet’s behaviour at its most fundamental level. Every time a conventional single-lever faucet is turned on from the central position, it draws from both hot and cold supplies and activates the boiler even for a two-second hand rinse that will never need hot water. The L20 defaults to cold. The boiler stays off unless you deliberately move the lever toward hot. In a household where the basin tap is used dozens of times a day, that default position saves energy, reduces emissions, and lowers electricity bills with every single use.

ADA compliant, WaterSense certified, deck-mounted with flexible supply hoses and a pop-up waste drain included, the Roca L20 arrives ready to install and engineered to perform for years. Available through Overexport Ghana in Tema, with nationwide delivery across Ghana.

Why the Roca L20 High-Neck?

High-neck faucets have become the defining hardware choice for bathrooms featuring countertop basins, vessel sinks, and above-counter bowls — all of which are increasingly specified in Ghana’s premium residential and hospitality sector. A standard-height faucet on a raised basin forces an uncomfortable, low arc of water. The L20’s elevated spout solves this completely, delivering water at the natural height and angle the basin demands.

The L20’s ADA compliance adds a further dimension of value for commercial and hospitality projects. Hotels, serviced apartments, and any facility that accommodates guests with disabilities benefit from ADA-compliant fittings and the L20 delivers this without any visual compromise.

Roca describes the L20 collection as “simply contemporary, sustainable and smart” and the L20 high-neck faucet earns every word of that description.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between the Roca L20 High-Neck and the Roca Smooth Body faucet? Both faucets share the same core technology; Cold Start, Evershine chrome, Soft Turn ceramic cartridge, 1.2 GPM flow, and coin-slot aerator. The key difference is the neck height. The Smooth Body is a medium-neck faucet designed for standard under-counter or semi-recessed basins. The L20 High-Neck is taller, designed specifically for countertop basins, vessel sinks, and above-counter bowls where a standard-height faucet would deliver water at too low an angle for comfortable use.

What basins is the L20 High-Neck compatible with? The L20 is ideal for any countertop or above-counter basins, available through Overexport Ghana. It installs through a single deck hole on the basin surface. Our team can confirm compatibility with specific basin models before you order.

What does ADA compliant mean for a faucet? ADA compliance means the faucet meets the accessibility requirements of the Americans with Disabilities Act, specifically that it can be operated with one hand, requires no tight gripping or twisting, and can be operated with a force of less than 5 pounds. In practice, this means the L20 is accessible and easy to use for people of all ages and abilities, making it an ideal specification for hotels, guest bathrooms, and any space that serves a broad range of users.

What is WaterSense certification? WaterSense is an EPA-backed programme that independently tests and certifies water-efficient products. A WaterSense-certified faucet at 1.2 GPM uses at least 30% less water than the standard 1.5 GPM threshold, without any reduction in performance. For developers pursuing green building certifications, WaterSense-certified fittings contribute toward water efficiency credits.

Is the pop-up waste included? Yes, unlike some faucets in this range, the L20 High-Neck includes a pop-up waste drain in the box. The drain is finished to coordinate with the Evershine chrome faucet for a consistent, polished look at the basin.

Does the 3/8″ water connection thread work with Ghanaian plumbing? Yes. The 3/8″ compression thread is the standard connection size for basin supply lines in Ghana. The flexible supply hoses included in the box connect directly to standard isolation valves without any adapters required.

Is trade pricing available? Yes, Overexport Ghana trade account holders receive up to 15% off retail pricing on the Roca L20 and all products across our range. [Apply for a trade account →]
