What is included with the Balterley Traditional Sink Mixer Tap?

The package includes the tap body with white lever handles and all necessary internal components for its operation. A waste fitting is not included.

What kind of finish does this tap have?

This tap features a light chrome finish, which is bright, reflective, and easy to clean.

Is this tap suitable for a combi-boiler system?

Yes, as a mixer tap, it is generally compatible with most UK water systems, including combi-boilers, provided water pressure is adequate.

How do I clean the white lever handles?

Wipe the handles with a soft, damp cloth. Mild soap can be used if necessary, followed by rinsing and drying. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

Can I replace the white lever handles with a different style?

Replacement handle options may vary. It's best to consult the manufacturer's specifications or contact Balterley customer support for compatibility information regarding alternative handles.

What are the dimensions of the tap?

Specific dimensions are not provided in the product description. For detailed measurements, please refer to the product's technical diagram or specification sheet if available, or contact the retailer.

Troubleshooting

Tap is dripping after installation

Check that the internal valve or cartridge is correctly seated and tightened. Ensure no debris is caught in the valve seat. If the problem persists, the cartridge may need replacement.

Low water pressure

Ensure both hot and cold water isolation valves are fully open. Check the aerator for blockages and clean it if necessary. Verify that the connecting hoses are not kinked.

Leaking from the base of the tap

Tighten the mounting nuts underneath the sink deck. Ensure the sealing washer or tape is correctly in place during installation to prevent leaks.

Difficulty in controlling water temperature

Check that the hot and cold water supplies are correctly connected to the respective inlets. Ensure the ceramic disc valves within the tap are functioning correctly; they may require servicing or replacement if damaged.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

This tap is designed for deck-mounting, meaning it is installed directly onto the surface of your sink or countertop. Ensure you have adequate space around the tap location for installation and operation. Standard plumbing connections are required; refer to the included manual or consult a professional plumber for specific installation steps. Please note that a waste fitting is not included and must be acquired separately.

Compatibility:

This is a mono mixer tap, designed to connect to both hot and cold water supplies. It is compatible with standard UK plumbing systems. Ensure your sink or countertop has the appropriate single hole for deck-mounted taps of this size.

Care:

To maintain the light chrome finish, regularly clean 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 with clean water and drying with a soft cloth.
