FAQs
What is the warranty period for the Reginox Chiana tap?
The tap comes with a 10-year manufacturer's guarantee against manufacturing defects on the main body. Serviceable components and working parts typically have a 6-month to 1-year warranty.
What is the minimum water pressure required for this tap?
The tap requires a minimum operating pressure of 0.5 bar to function correctly.
Can I use this tap with a low-pressure water system?
While the tap operates up to 5.0 bar, it requires a minimum of 0.5 bar. If your system is below this, you may need to consider a booster pump.
How do I clean the polished chrome finish?
Clean regularly with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. Dry thoroughly afterwards. Avoid abrasive cleaners or pads.
Is the pull-out hose covered by the guarantee?
The pull-out hose is considered a working part and is subject to the warranty terms for such components, which is typically 6 months unless stated otherwise, and does not cover general wear and tear or damage.
What does 'deck-mounted' installation mean?
Deck-mounted means the tap is installed through a pre-drilled hole in the sink deck or countertop, rather than being fixed to the wall.
Does the swivel spout rotate 360 degrees?
The tap features a swivel spout suitable for single and multiple bowl sinks, typically allowing for a wide range of motion, though the exact degree of rotation may vary.
Troubleshooting
Tap is not dispensing water or has very low flow.
Check that the water supply is turned on. Ensure the operating pressure meets the minimum requirement of 0.5 bar. Verify that the pull-out hose is not kinked and the spray head is not blocked.
Tap drips from the spout.
This may indicate an issue with the ceramic valve or a worn seal. Check the warranty terms for coverage on serviceable parts. For persistent drips, professional servicing or replacement of the valve may be necessary.
The pull-out spray head is difficult to retract or extend.
Ensure the hose is not tangled or obstructed beneath the sink. Check for any debris or damage to the hose or spray head mechanism.
Water leaks from the base of the tap.
Ensure all connections under the sink are secure and properly tightened. Check the seals and mounting hardware for any signs of damage or wear.
Finish is discolored or tarnished.
Avoid harsh cleaning chemicals. Use only mild soap and a soft cloth. Discoloration from prolonged UV exposure is not covered by the guarantee. Clean and dry regularly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup
The Chiana tap is designed for deck-mounted installation, meaning it is typically installed through a hole in the sink deck or countertop. Ensure you have adequate space beneath the sink for connections. Installation should follow standard plumbing practices. Refer to the included manufacturer's instructions for detailed step-by-step guidance.
Compatibility
- Pressure: Compatible with systems operating between 0.5 bar and 5.0 bar maximum pressure.
- Tap Holes: Requires a single tap hole for installation.
- Plumbing System: Suitable for standard domestic hot and cold water systems.
Care
To maintain the polished chrome finish:
- Regular Cleaning: Wipe the tap with a soft, damp cloth after use to remove water spots and residue.
- Mild Cleaning Agents: For tougher grime, use a mild, non-abrasive soap or a dedicated chrome cleaner. Avoid harsh chemicals, abrasive pads, or steel wool, as these can scratch the finish.
- Drying: Always dry the tap thoroughly with a soft cloth after cleaning to prevent water marks.
- Valve Care: The quarter-turn ceramic valve is designed for longevity, but if you notice a slight drip, it may require servicing as per the warranty terms.
