Troubleshooting
Tap is dripping or leaking.
This is typically due to worn ceramic discs. Contact customer support for replacement parts or professional servicing.
Low water flow.
Check if the aerator at the spout end is clogged with limescale or debris. Clean it gently according to the care instructions. Also, ensure there are no kinks or blockages in the water supply hoses.
Difficulty turning handles.
Ensure the handles are correctly fitted. If stiffness persists, there may be an internal issue with the valve mechanism; professional inspection may be required.
