FAQs

What is the minimum pressure required for this tap?

This tap requires a minimum operating pressure of 0.5 Bar to function correctly.

Can I install this tap myself?

While technically possible for advanced DIYers, professional installation is recommended due to the precision required for wall-mounted pipe connections.

What material is the tap made of?

The Helston tap is manufactured from high-quality solid brass.

Does it come with a warranty?

Yes, this product is backed by a 3-year warranty covering manufacturing defects.

How do I clean the silver finish?

Use a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals as they will damage the electroplated finish.

Troubleshooting

Water flow is weak or erratic

Check that the water pressure meets the 0.5 Bar minimum requirement. Inspect the integrated aerator for debris or limescale and clean if necessary.

Handle is stiff to turn

Ensure that the internal ceramic disc has not been overtightened during installation and that there is no buildup of mineral deposits around the handle mechanism.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Elegant traditional design suitable for country-style bathrooms
  • High-quality solid brass construction ensures rust resistance
  • Ceramic disc cartridges provide precise control and leak prevention
  • Built-in aerator promotes water efficiency

Cons

  • Requires professional plumbing for wall-mounted installation
  • Not compatible with extremely low-pressure systems below 0.5 Bar
  • Fixed wall position means less flexibility than deck-mounted options

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation of the Helston tap should be performed by a qualified plumber due to the necessity of accurate wall mounting and plumbing connection. Before beginning, ensure your water supply is isolated.

  • Compatibility: Operates efficiently on systems with a minimum pressure of 0.5 Bar.
  • Care Instructions: To maintain the electroplated silver finish, wipe the surface regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive sponges, harsh chemical cleaners, or bleach, as these can strip the finish and cause permanent damage to the brass casing.
  • Maintenance: Periodically check the aerator to ensure it remains free of limescale build-up; it can be unscrewed and soaked in a mild vinegar solution if flow becomes restricted.
