FAQs
What is included with the Hudson Reed Tec Crosshead Bath Filler?
The tap itself is included. However, waste fittings are not included and must be purchased separately.
What is the warranty period for this tap?
The Hudson Reed Tec Crosshead Bath Filler comes with a 20-year manufacturer's guarantee against faulty workmanship or materials, provided it is installed and used according to instructions.
What minimum water pressure is required for this tap to function?
The tap requires a minimum operating pressure of 0.2 Bar.
How do I clean the chrome finish?
Clean the chrome finish regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or scouring pads to prevent scratching.
What is the material of the tap?
The tap is constructed with high-quality brass internals and finished with a luxury chrome plating.
Does the swivel spout make the tap less durable?
No, the swivel spout is designed for practical use and is integrated into the tap's high-quality construction. The ceramic disc technology ensures the overall durability and smooth operation of the tap.
Can I install this tap myself?
While installation is possible for experienced DIYers, professional installation is recommended to ensure proper sealing and to avoid damaging fittings, especially considering the need for careful handling during installation.
Troubleshooting
Tap is dripping when turned off.
This typically indicates an issue with the ceramic disc cartridge. Ensure the tap is fully closed. If the problem persists, the cartridge may need to be replaced. Refer to the manufacturer's instructions for cartridge replacement or contact customer support.
Low water flow from the spout.
Check the aerator or flow restrictor at the end of the spout for blockages (e.g., sediment or debris). Ensure the minimum operating pressure of 0.2 Bar is being met. Also, check for any kinks or restrictions in the water supply lines.
Tap is difficult to turn or stiff.
The internal mechanism may require lubrication or cleaning. If the issue is with the handles, ensure they are securely attached. Over time, mineral deposits can cause stiffness; flushing the system or replacing the ceramic disc cartridge might be necessary.
No water is coming out of the tap.
Verify that the main water supply to the property is on and that the isolation valves for the tap are open. Check for any blockages in the inlet pipes. Ensure the minimum operating pressure is sufficient.
