Product Information

Full details

This guide is for owners of Franke Filterflow Doric taps manufactured from 2012 onwards who are experiencing leaks or drips from the spout. The key benefit is a complete valve replacement kit designed for a fast and easy fix, restoring your tap to a drip-free state. A caveat to be aware of is that these spares are *not* compatible with the earlier Triflow version of the Doric tap, and sometimes a brass bush may need replacing alongside the valve. This product offers high-quality, compatible quarter-turn ceramic valves, sold as a set of three, to resolve common tap dripping issues.

FAQs

How do I know if I have a Filterflow Doric tap (2012+) and not an older Triflow version?

The easiest way to confirm is by checking for any model numbers or labels on your tap or its original packaging. Visually comparing your tap to images of both Filterflow and Triflow Doric models online can also help. The Filterflow models typically have a slightly different handle design or spout base compared to the older Triflow.

What if the brass bush comes out with the old valve?

It is common for the brass bush to adhere to the old valve. If this happens, you will need to separate them carefully. If they are seized, or if the bush appears damaged, you will need to purchase and replace the brass bush as well as the valves. These spares are typically sold separately.

Are these valves difficult to install?

No, these valves are designed for fast and easy fitting. With basic DIY skills and the aid of the provided installation guides (available to download), most users can replace them without professional help.

Do I need to buy three valves even if only one side of the tap is dripping?

It is recommended to replace all three valves at the same time. This ensures consistent performance and prevents premature failure of the remaining older valves.

What is the warranty on these replacement valves?

Please refer to the retailer's specific warranty policy for this product. Generally, replacement parts come with a standard manufacturer's warranty against defects.

Can I use these valves in other Franke tap models?

No, these valves are specifically designed and tested for the Franke Filterflow Doric tap model (2012 onwards). Using them in other models is not recommended and may lead to leaks or damage.

Troubleshooting

Tap is still dripping after valve replacement

Ensure the correct valve model for the Filterflow Doric (2012+) was installed. Check if the brass bush (if it came loose) was also replaced or re-seated correctly. Double-check that the valves are fully tightened.

Difficulty removing the old valve

Ensure you are using the correct tools and apply steady pressure. Be aware that the brass bush may come out with the valve; do not force them apart if they are seized. Consult available installation guides for specific techniques.

Tap leaks from the base or handle after reassembly

This usually indicates a problem with the main body seals or O-rings, not the replacement valves themselves. Check all seals and ensure the tap body is reassembled correctly and tightly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: These valves are specifically designed for the Franke Filterflow Doric tap manufactured from 2012 onwards. They are *not* compatible with the earlier Triflow version of the Doric tap. Please verify your tap model before ordering.

Setup:

  1. Turn off the main water supply to your tap.
  2. Carefully dismantle the tap handle and body to access the existing valves.
  3. Unscrew and remove the old valves. *Note: A brass bush may sometimes come out with the valve; if so, it may also need replacing.*
  4. Insert the new Franke Filterflow Doric replacement valves, ensuring they are seated correctly.
  5. Reassemble the tap handle and body.
  6. Turn the water supply back on and test for leaks.

Detailed installation guides are available for download online.

Care: These are internal components and do not require routine external care. Ensure they are fitted correctly to prevent leaks. If the tap starts dripping again, it may indicate the need for replacement of the brass bush or re-seating of the valves.
