What are Wet Bars?

A wet bar is a bar in a home that is used for mixing alcoholic beverages and other types of drinks. In order to make it possible to mix drinks, a wet bar contains a flat counter-like surface on which the beverages and glassware can be placed. A wet bar also contains a sink that generally has running water, which can be used for cleaning the glassware or for adding water to beverages as needed.

The sink in a wet bar may either be a “wet” sink or a “dry” sink. A wet sink is one with plumbing lines attached to it in order to provide the running water. If the wet bar has a dry sink, however, it is not attached to plumbing. Therefore, it does not have running water. The dry sink in a wet bar still has many uses, such as being filled with ice in order to provide a quick chill to beverages.

In most cases, a wet bar also contains a recessed area close to the sink. This area is meant for installing a small refrigerator. Beneath the counter area of the wet bar, there is also a storage area. This storage area provides a place for bottles of beverages as well as glassware.

In most wet bar designs, the cabinets have adjustable shelving units inside. This makes it possible to change the height of the shelves in order to accommodate various sized bottles and glassware. In order to create a more attractive appearance, the cabinets of a wet bar usually have doors that can be opened or closed to hide the beverages and glassware.

In most homes, the wet bar is constructed out of wood. The counter of this type of wet bar is usually laminated in order to make it easy to clean up spills. In some cases, however, the wet bar may be made of stainless steel. The stainless steel wet bar is generally more expensive than one made of wood. In addition, several companies sell kits for creating wood wet bar designs, making it easy for the do-it-yourselfer to build a wet bar in his or her home.
