Curious.....why would it matter? Are you talking the Aerator flow rate? These rates are stamped in the aerator. No control is required unless you were using the kitchen faucet for scientific purposes where water flow rates were crucial, or you lived somewhere where water was very scarce and the police enforced flow rates.

How do you increase pressure at kitchen faucet?
If you're experiencing low water pressure at your kitchen faucet, here are a few things you can try to increase it: 1- Check the aerator: Remove the aerator from the end of the faucet and clean any sediment or debris that may have accumulated inside. 2- Check the water valves: Make sure the valves under the sink that control the water flow are fully open. 3- Check the supply line: Inspect the supply line leading to the faucet for any kinks or obstructions that may be reducing the water flow. 4- Check the water pressure regulator: If your home has a water pressure regulator, make sure it is set to the proper pressure. 5- Call a professional: If none of these steps improve your water pressure, it may be time to call a licensed plumber to inspect and repair any underlying issues.

There are a few things you can do. First wrap the hot water lines from the water heater to the faucets.

How to Install a Water Filter on Your Faucet?
Installing a water filter on the end of your kitchen faucet is very easy to do and allows you to use filtered water for all of your kitchen needs. Every type of kitchen faucet water filter is attached in a similar fashion, though there may be some specific details that are different with your particular faucet or filter. Remove the Original Faucet End The first thing you need to do is take off the end of the faucet. You can usually unscrew it with your fingers. If it is very difficult to break loose, use a small wrench to give it a little more strength. Wrap a dish towel around the end of the faucet before you use a wrench so that you will avoid scratching the faucet’s surface. Once the end comes off, there may be some rubber washers that come off as well. Set these aside so that you can find them again later if necessary. Assemble the Water Filter Most faucet water filters are not fully assembled in the box. Take all the parts out of the box and put them together according to the instructions that should have been provided. In general, you will probably just need to put the actual filter into the filter housing so that the water will flow through properly. Do not use a great deal of force when you put the unit together. Most plumbing appliances are meant to be tightened by hand so that they can be loosened easily when you need to remove them again. Find the Right Attachment for Your Faucet The water filter will come with faucet attachments that are different shapes and sizes. Test each attachment until you find the one that screws on to the end of your faucet easily. Make sure that the attachment is lined up properly when you screw it on. Trying to screw it on at the wrong angle can make new impressions in the threads of the attachment, which will allow water to escape once the faucet is turned on. When you find the right attachment, put it on the water filter and then screw the entire assembly onto the faucet.

If your current vanity has 2 taps and a water spout can you replace it with one with a mixer set up?
If the taps and the spout are not connected in one unit, the spacing on your sink is probably 8 inches center to center. The only faucet I have seen for a bathroom sink with that spacing is the two handle type. There may be a single handle available. A kitchen faucet may work if the holes in the sink are large enough. Kitchen faucets are 8 inch also. If yours is 4 inch, then it is no problem, they are common.
