Setup, Compatibility & Care
Compatibility: This valve replacement kit is specifically designed as a compatible spare part for the Perrin & Rowe Oberon tap model. Please verify your tap model before purchase to ensure a correct fit.
Setup (Installation):
- Turn off the water supply to the tap. This is crucial to prevent flooding.
- Remove the tap handle. This usually involves prying off a decorative cap and unscrewing a central screw.
- Unscrew the valve housing. You may need a wrench or spanner for this. Be careful not to damage the tap body.
- Remove the old ceramic cartridges. Note their orientation.
- Insert the new TapSparesUK cartridges, ensuring they are oriented correctly.
- Screw the valve housing back in securely.
- Reattach the tap handle.
- Turn the water supply back on slowly and check for leaks.
*Note: If you are unsure about any step, it is recommended to consult a qualified plumber.*
Care: These ceramic cartridges are designed for longevity and require minimal specific care beyond standard tap maintenance. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals on or around the tap, as this could potentially damage the tap finish or internal components over time.
