FAQs

What tools do I need for installation?

You will need a screwdriver, adjustable wrench, pipe cutter (if adjusting pipes), a level, and a measuring tape.

Can I install this on any wall type?

This product is compatible with most wall types. However, ensure the wall can support the weight and that the fixings are secure.

What is the purpose of the olive?

The olive is used to create a watertight seal between the threaded connector and the copper pipe.

How do I clean the chrome finish?

Use a soft cloth and mild soap. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

What if the brackets don't fit my existing pipe spacing?

Measure the distance between the existing pipes to confirm that it fits the brackets. If not, you may need to adjust the pipes.

Is professional installation recommended?

Troubleshooting

Water leaks at the connection points.

Ensure all connections are tightened properly. Check the olive for correct placement and replace if necessary. Inspect the threads for damage.
