FAQs

What is the warranty period for this RAK Ceramics tap?

The RAK Ceramics Amalfi Bath Shower Mixer Tap comes with a 15-year guarantee, providing long-term assurance of its quality and durability.

What material is the tap made from?

The tap is constructed from solid brass, ensuring high durability and resistance to corrosion.

Is this tap suitable for a low-pressure water system?

While it is compatible with standard UK plumbing systems, optimal performance is achieved with adequate water pressure. Consult a plumber if you have a low-pressure system.

Does this product include a showerhead and hose?

No, this product is the bath shower mixer tap only. A separate showerhead and hose are required and not included.

How do I clean the chrome finish?

Clean with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners. For tougher spots, use a mild vinegar solution, then rinse and dry thoroughly.

What are the dimensions of the tap?

The dimensions are 309mm in width, 62mm in height, and a projection of 211mm (21.1cm).

Is this tap suitable for high-temperature water systems?

The thermostatic valve is designed to regulate temperature precisely, offering protection against scalding even with high incoming water temperatures, provided the system is correctly installed and maintained.

Troubleshooting

Water temperature is inconsistent

Ensure the thermostatic valve is functioning correctly. Check that the hot and cold water supplies are balanced. Clean any filters or aerators that may be blocked.

Low water flow from the showerhead

Check the showerhead and hose for blockages or kinks. Ensure water inlet filters are clean. Verify that water pressure from your mains supply is sufficient.

Leaking from the tap or connections

Turn off the water supply. Inspect all connections for tightness and ensure seals and O-rings are intact. Replace any worn components. If the leak persists, consult a qualified plumber.

Difficulty switching between bath and shower modes

Check the diverter mechanism for blockages or damage. Ensure the handle operates smoothly. If stiff, a small amount of silicone-based lubricant may help, applied by a professional.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable solid brass construction for long-lasting use.
  • Thermostatic control ensures consistent and safe water temperatures.
  • Stylish chrome finish enhances bathroom aesthetics.
  • Easy-to-maintain exposed wall-mounted design.
  • 15-year guarantee provides peace of mind.

Cons

  • Requires specific wall-mounting installation.
  • Exposed design may not suit all minimalist bathroom decors.
  • Detailed dimensions (309mm x 62mm x 194mm) might require careful placement planning.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup: This is an exposed, wall-mounted thermostatic shower valve. It requires a standard 1/2 BSP inlet connection for hot and cold water and a G 1/2 outlet connection for the shower hose. Ensure the wall has adequate support for mounting. Professional installation by a qualified plumber is recommended to ensure correct connections and prevent leaks. The vertical orientation means the controls and outlets are positioned along the height of the unit.

Compatibility: Suitable for standard UK plumbing systems. It is designed to work with both bath fillers and a separate showerhead (not included). Ensure your hot and cold water pressure is adequate for optimal performance.

Care: To maintain the chrome finish, clean regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as these can scratch the surface. For limescale buildup, a mild vinegar solution can be used, followed by rinsing with clean water and drying with a soft cloth. Periodically check connections for any signs of wear or leakage.
