Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: This is a deck-mounted tap requiring two mounting holes. Ensure you have a water supply pressure of at least 0.2 bar for optimal performance. Installation typically involves connecting the tap to hot and cold water supply hoses (usually 1/2" faucet connection size) and securing it to the countertop or sink.
Compatibility: Suitable for systems with a minimum pressure of 0.2 bar. The maximum operating pressure is 5.5 bar. The recommended hot water supply temperature is 46°C, with a maximum of 70°C.
Care: To maintain the Chrome finish, clean regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, which can scratch the surface. For internal components, the ceramic disc valves are designed for longevity; if a drip occurs, ensure handles are fully closed. Periodically check inlet connections for any signs of leakage.
