Finnish term or phrase: vesikalusteet
Onko olemassa vastaava kaikenkattava termi englanniksi? Ymmärrykseni mukaan tämä sisältää hanat, pesualtaat, wc-istuimet, suihkutarvikkeet jne.

That's closest I guess - for the purposes of my translation I needed something that would fit both bathroom and kitchen and actually on closer inspection didn't include toilet seats etc. in this case, so I went with "plumbing fixtures"

bathroom fixtures


Explanation:
Jos kyseessä kylppärin kalusteet, niin sitten tuo bathroom fixtures, mutta jos sisältää myös esim. keittiön, niin sitten voisi käyttää "kitchen and bathroom fixtures" tai vaikkapa "plumbing fixtures".
