FAQs
Does this tap include the shower hose and handset?
This product is the mixer unit itself; please check your specific purchase package to see if a hose and handset are bundled.
Is this suitable for high-pressure systems?
The solid brass construction is designed to handle standard residential pressure, but consult with your plumber regarding your specific water pressure levels.
How do I maintain the polished finish?
Wipe down the tap after each use with a dry microfiber cloth to prevent water spots and lime scale buildup.
Can this tap be installed on a deck-mounted bath?
Yes, this mixer is designed for deck-mount installation on most standard bath edges.
What tools are needed for installation?
You will typically need an adjustable wrench, plumber's tape (PTFE), and possibly a basin wrench to access the mounting nuts underneath the bath.
Is the finish resistant to cleaning chemicals?
The PVD coating is durable, but you should avoid harsh chemicals, bleach, or abrasive sponges that can scratch the finish.
Troubleshooting
Water leaking from the base of the handle
The handle nut may be loose or the internal O-ring seal may have degraded; tighten the nut or replace the O-ring.
Reduced water flow from the spout
Check the aerator for mineral deposits or debris and soak it in a vinegar solution to clear blockages.
Handles feeling stiff or difficult to turn
Sediment buildup may be affecting the cartridge; remove the handle, clean the valve assembly, and check for signs of calcification.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation should be performed by a qualified plumber to ensure all seals are seated correctly and that the unit is compatible with your specific boiler or tank pressure system. Before installation, flush out the supply pipes to remove any debris that could damage the internal ceramic cartridges. For ongoing care, clean the tap using only a soft, damp cloth and mild soap; avoid using abrasive scrubbers or acidic cleaning agents, as these can dull or damage the PVD mirror finish. Regularly check the aerator for mineral buildup if you live in a hard water area to maintain consistent flow.
