What material is the tap made of?

How do I clean the chrome finish to keep it looking new?

Troubleshooting

Tap is dripping after being turned off

This often indicates an issue with the ceramic disc cartridge. Ensure the tap is fully closed. If dripping persists, the cartridge may need cleaning or replacement. Consult the manufacturer's guide or a qualified plumber.

Low water flow from the spout

Check if the aerator at the end of the spout is clogged with limescale or debris. Unscrew it carefully, clean it, and reattach. Also, verify that your water system is meeting the minimum 0.1 Bar operating pressure.

Handles are stiff or difficult to turn

This could be due to limescale buildup or an issue with the internal valve mechanism. Cleaning the ceramic disc cartridge or seeking professional assistance may resolve this.

Water is not hot or cold enough

Ensure the hot and cold water supply lines are correctly connected to the mixer. Check your water heater settings and the balance of your central heating system.
