FAQs

What type of installation does this tap require?

This tap is designed for deck-mounting, meaning it is installed onto the surface of the bathtub deck.

Is this tap suitable for high-pressure water systems?

The tap is designed to work with standard water pressures. It is always recommended to check your home's water pressure and consult the product's technical specifications for detailed compatibility.

How do I clean the chrome effect finish?

Clean regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads. A mild, non-abrasive bathroom cleaner can be used for tougher spots, followed by rinsing and drying.

What material is the tap made from?

Can I install this tap on a wall instead of a bath deck?

How long is the shower hose?

The product description mentions a flexible hose for the shower kit, but the exact length is not specified. Please refer to the product's technical data sheet or packaging for precise dimensions.

Troubleshooting

Tap is leaking from the base.

Ensure all connections are securely tightened. Check that the seals and washers are correctly in place and not damaged. If the leak persists, professional assistance may be required.

Low water pressure from the tap or shower.

Check that the isolation valves under the bath are fully open. Inspect the aerator on the tap and the showerhead for blockages caused by limescale or debris. Clean these components as per the care instructions.

Showerhead has poor spray pattern.

The spray nozzles may be clogged with limescale. Soak the showerhead in a mild vinegar solution for a few hours, then rinse and scrub gently with a soft brush. Ensure the flexible hose is not kinked.

Tap handle is stiff or difficult to move.

Mineral deposits may be building up inside the valve. This may require professional servicing to clean or replace the internal cartridge.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Ensure you have the appropriate pre-drilled holes on your bath for this type of installation. Professional installation is recommended to ensure a secure and watertight fit. Follow the manufacturer's detailed installation guide for connecting water supply lines and securing the tap.
