FAQs
What is the primary benefit of the timed flow mechanism?
The timed flow mechanism automatically shuts off the water supply after a short period, significantly reducing water wastage and lowering utility costs.
Is the flow limiter pre-fitted?
No, the 5l/min flow limiter is supplied separately and can be fitted by the installer if further water saving is desired.
What is the recommended water pressure for this tap?
The tap is designed to operate effectively with a minimum water pressure of 0.2 bar and a maximum of 10 bar.
How do I clean the chrome finish?
Clean with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals to maintain the finish.
Does this tap come with hot and cold indicators?
Yes, the tap is supplied with separate cold and hot indices for clear identification.
What does BREEAM compliant mean?
BREEAM compliance indicates that the product meets certain environmental standards, contributing to sustainable building practices.
Troubleshooting
Tap does not turn on
Check that the water supply is turned on and that the handle mechanism is functioning correctly. Ensure there are no blockages in the water inlet.
Water flow is too weak or too strong
If a flow limiter is fitted, ensure it is correctly installed. If no flow limiter is fitted, consider installing the included 5l/min limiter. Check that the water pressure meets the minimum requirement (0.2 bar).
Tap leaks after shut-off
Verify all connections are secure. If the leak persists, the internal mechanism or seals may require attention. Contact a qualified plumber.
Timed flow duration is inconsistent
Ensure consistent water pressure. Debris in the mechanism can affect timing; check for and clean any obstructions if possible, or consult the manual for specific servicing instructions.
