FAQs

What is the warranty period for these taps?

Heritage products typically come with a comprehensive manufacturer's warranty. Please refer to the product packaging or the Heritage website for the exact warranty duration and terms.

Can these taps be used with a combi boiler system?

Yes, these pillar taps are generally compatible with combi boiler systems, provided your system delivers adequate hot and cold water pressure as recommended for tap usage.

Do I need special tools to install these taps?

Standard plumbing tools such as adjustable wrenches, basin wrenches, and PTFE tape or sealant are typically required. For complex installations or if you are unsure, professional installation is recommended.

How do I clean the chrome finish without damaging it?

Use a soft, damp cloth with mild soap. Avoid abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, or harsh chemicals like bleach or ammonia, as these can scratch or dull the chrome surface. Always rinse and dry thoroughly.

Are replacement parts available for these taps?

Yes, replacement parts such as washers and valve cartridges are usually available from the manufacturer or specialized plumbing suppliers. It's best to check the Heritage parts list or contact their customer service.

What is the recommended water pressure for these taps?

These taps are designed to work with standard domestic water pressures, typically between 1 and 5 bar. Significantly low or high pressure may affect performance.

Troubleshooting

Tap is dripping after shut-off

This usually indicates a worn or damaged washer or valve seat. Turn off the water supply, dismantle the affected tap handle, and replace the washer or inspect the valve seat for damage. If unsure, consult a plumber.

Low water flow from one or both taps

Check the aerator on the spout for blockage. Unscrew the aerator and clean it. Also, ensure the isolation valves under the sink are fully open. Debris in the supply lines can also cause this; flushing the lines may be necessary.

Difficulty turning the handles

The internal valve mechanism might be stiff. Ensure the water supply is turned off, then try gently cleaning and lubricating the valve spindle. If the issue persists, the valve may need replacing.

Taps making noise (hammering or whistling)

Water hammer can occur due to high water pressure or loose pipes. Ensure water pressure is within the recommended range (typically 1-5 bar). Whistling can sometimes be caused by debris or a worn valve. Check for obstructions or consider replacing the valve.
