FAQs

What is included in the Bristan Iris Basin Mixer + Bath Shower Mixer package?

The package includes the Bristan Iris Basin Mixer Tap, the Bristan Iris Bath Shower Mixer, flexible connection tails, a clicker waste for the basin, a shower hose, and a single-function handset. Metal fixing nuts for secure installation are also provided for both taps.

Is this tap set suitable for my water pressure?

Yes, the Bristan Iris tap set is designed to be suitable for both high and low water pressure systems, offering versatility for different home plumbing setups.

How long is the guarantee for this product?

The Bristan Iris tap set comes with a 5-year guarantee, providing assurance of its quality and durability.

How do I clean and maintain the chrome finish?

To maintain the flawless chrome finish, regularly clean the taps with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads. For best results, use a mild detergent, rinse thoroughly, and dry with a soft cloth.

Can I replace the single-function handset on the bath shower mixer?

While the handset is designed as a functional unit, compatibility with alternative handsets would need to be checked with Bristan directly. Standard hose connections are typically used.

What does 'Precise Glide' refer to?

'Precise Glide' refers to the smooth and controlled operation of the tap handles, allowing for easy and accurate adjustment of water flow and temperature.

Do I need to buy any extra parts for installation?

No, this set is an 'all-in-one box' solution. It includes flexible tails and a clicker waste for the basin mixer, meaning you should not need to buy anything separately for basic installation.

Troubleshooting

Tap is dripping when turned off

This usually indicates an issue with the ceramic disc cartridge. Ensure the tap is fully closed. If the dripping persists, the cartridge may need cleaning or replacement. Refer to the guarantee for potential replacement parts.

Low water flow from the spout or shower head

Check that the flexible tails are not kinked. Clean any debris from the aerator (Basin Mixer) or the shower head and hose. Verify that there are no blockages in the pipework and that your water pressure is within the recommended range.

Tap handle is stiff or difficult to move

The ceramic disc cartridge might require lubrication or cleaning. If the issue persists, the cartridge may need to be replaced. Ensure the metal fixing nut is not overtightened, which can sometimes impede handle movement.

No hot or cold water, or inconsistent temperature

Check the isolation valves under the basin or bath to ensure they are fully open. Verify that the hot and cold water supplies to the taps are correctly connected and functioning.
