Troubleshooting

Tap is dripping or leaking

Check if the quarter-turn ceramic valve needs replacement. Ensure all connections are tight. For persistent drips, consult the 6-month warranty for working parts or contact a plumber.

Low water flow from the spout

Ensure the operating pressure meets the recommended 1 Bar. Check the aerator at the end of the spout for any blockages (e.g., debris or limescale) and clean it. Verify that the flexible tails are not kinked.

Pull-out hose is stiff or not retracting properly

Check for any obstructions under the sink that might be interfering with the hose. Ensure the hose is not twisted or kinked. Clean any visible debris around the hose mechanism.

Tap won't turn on or off smoothly

The quarter-turn ceramic valve may require maintenance or replacement. Ensure the handle is aligned correctly with the valve mechanism.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup: The Astini Mayhill tap is designed for deck-mounted installation, typically requiring a single tap hole. Ensure you have adequate space behind the sink for the tap body and the pull-out hose mechanism. Flexible tails are included for connecting to your water supply lines. It is recommended that installation is carried out by a qualified plumber to ensure correct connection and to maintain the warranty.

Compatibility: This tap is compatible with standard UK plumbing systems. It requires a minimum operating pressure of 1 Bar for optimal performance. Check your home's water pressure to ensure it meets this requirement. It is designed for use with standard hot and cold water supplies.

Care: To maintain the sleek black and rose gold finish, clean the tap regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the finish. For limescale build-up, a mild descaler can be used sparingly, followed by a thorough rinse with clean water. Ensure the pull-out hose is not kinked or excessively stretched during use to prolong its lifespan.
