What material is the tap made of?

The tap is crafted from high-quality copper materials, ensuring durability and strength for everyday kitchen use.

Can I install this tap myself?

While basic installation might be possible for experienced DIYers, professional plumbing installation is recommended to ensure correct and safe fitting, preventing leaks and potential damage.

Does the swivel neck move smoothly?

What type of valves does this tap use?

Troubleshooting

Tap is dripping from the spout

This usually indicates a worn ceramic disc valve. Turn off the water supply, and you may need to replace the internal valve cartridge. Refer to the product manual or contact customer service.

Low water flow

Check the aerator at the tip of the spout for blockages from sediment. Unscrew the aerator, clean it, and reattach. Also, ensure your home's water supply is fully turned on and check for kinks in the supply hoses.

Water not getting hot or cold

Verify that the hot and cold water supply lines are correctly connected to the tap and that the isolation valves under the sink are fully open. Check your home's water heater and cold water supply.

Leaking from the base of the tap

Ensure the mounting nuts and seals are tightened correctly. If the leak persists, the seals may need to be replaced.

Swivel neck is stiff or loose

Check the tightness of the swivel mechanism according to the installation guide. Sometimes, minor adjustments can resolve stiffness or looseness. If issues persist, contact customer support.
