Troubleshooting
Tap is dripping
Ensure the ½ turn ceramic disc valves are properly seated. If the issue persists, the ceramic discs may be damaged and require replacement (contact manufacturer for parts).
Low water flow
Check that the aerator is not blocked with limescale or debris. Unscrew the aerator and clean it. Also, verify that the hot and cold water supply valves are fully open.
No hot or cold water
Confirm that the isolation valves for both hot and cold water are fully open. Check that the flexible tap tails are securely connected to the water supply and are not kinked.
Tap is noisy during use
This could indicate a pressure issue. Ensure your water pressure meets the 1-3 bar requirement. If pressure is correct, check for any internal blockages or loose components.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Compatibility: This tap is designed for single-hole deck-mounted installations and is suitable for standard kitchen countertops or sinks. It requires a minimum operating pressure of 1 bar and is compatible with systems up to 3 bar. It is not suitable for low-pressure or gravity-fed water systems.
Setup: Ensure the water supply is turned off before installation. Mount the tap through the pre-drilled hole on your sink or worktop, securing it from underneath. Connect the included flexible tap tails (G ½ connections) to your existing hot and cold water supply lines. It is recommended that installation is performed by a qualified plumber.
Care: To maintain the Blue & Chrome finish, regularly wipe the tap with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as these can scratch the surface. For stubborn marks, a mild soap solution can be used, followed by rinsing and drying with a soft cloth.
