Product Information
Full details
The Abode Brolle Dual Lever Mono Mixer is an ideal choice for homeowners looking to elevate their kitchen aesthetic with a fixture that bridges the gap between contemporary and classic design. Built with solid metal construction, this tap offers reliable performance for those operating on lower to mid-pressure plumbing systems. While its striking grey finish and unique handle styling provide a distinctive focal point, potential buyers should note that the dual lever configuration requires two-handed operation for precise temperature mixing.

FAQs
Can I install this tap in a home with low water pressure?
Yes, the Abode Brolle is specifically engineered to perform effectively on lower to mid-pressure plumbing systems.
Does this tap include the necessary hoses for installation?
Yes, it comes with flexible tail pipes included to ensure a fast and straightforward setup.
How do I operate the temperature controls?
This is a dual lever mixer, meaning you turn the left lever for hot and the right lever for cold, blending them to your desired temperature.
What is the benefit of the quarter-turn handle action?
The quarter-turn mechanism allows you to reach full flow with minimal effort, providing a much smoother operation than traditional compression valves.
Is the finish resistant to scratches?
The tap features a high-quality finish, but it should be cleaned with a non-abrasive cloth to maintain its appearance and prevent scratching.
Troubleshooting
Reduced water flow from the spout
Unscrew the aerator at the tip of the spout and clean away any limescale deposits.
Leaking from the base of the handles
Ensure the quarter-turn valves are tightened correctly or check if the internal cartridge seal needs cleaning.
Tap is loose on the sink deck
Access the underside of the sink and tighten the fixing nut to ensure the tap is securely anchored.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation of the Abode Brolle is streamlined by the provided flexible tail pipes, which accommodate various pipe configurations under the sink. Ensure your mounting hole is standard sized before beginning the process. To maintain the tap, avoid using abrasive cleaning pads or harsh chemical cleaners, as these can damage the grey finish. Instead, use a soft cloth with warm soapy water to clean the surface, followed by a dry cloth to prevent limescale buildup. Regularly check the aerator at the tip of the spout and descale it if you notice a reduction in flow quality over time.
