How do I clean the chrome finish?

Clean with a soft, damp cloth and mild detergent. Avoid abrasive cleaners to prevent scratching.

Can this mixer be installed on any bath?

It is designed for deck mounting and requires a bath with one pre-drilled tap hole. Ensure your water pressure is suitable (0.1 - 5.0 bar).

What are the dimensions of the mixer?

The dimensions are Height: 108.0 mm, Width: 50.0 mm, and Depth: 177.0 mm.

Troubleshooting

No water flow or low flow

Check that the main water supply is turned on. Ensure the flexible tails are not kinked. Verify that the ceramic disc cartridge is not blocked by debris (refer to manufacturer's instructions for cartridge cleaning/replacement).

Water temperature is too hot or too cold

Adjust the lever position carefully. Check the hot and cold water supply lines are correctly connected. Ensure the ceramic disc cartridge is functioning correctly and not seized.

Leaking from the base of the tap

Ensure the tap is securely mounted to the bath deck. Check the seals and connections of the flexible tails. If leaking persists, the internal cartridge may need attention or replacement.

Shower head not working correctly or low pressure from shower

Check the shower hose for kinks. Clean any limescale buildup from the shower head holes. Ensure the connection between the hose and the mixer outlet is secure.
