How do I clean the polished chrome finish?

What is the inlet connection size?

What water pressure is recommended for this tap?

Troubleshooting

Tap is dripping water when turned off.

This usually indicates an issue with the ceramic cartridge. Ensure the tap is fully closed. If the dripping persists, the cartridge may need to be cleaned or replaced. Contact customer support if under warranty.

Low water flow from the spout.

Check if the water supply valves are fully open. Inspect the aerator (if present) for blockages, such as sediment or limescale, and clean it. Ensure your home's water pressure meets the minimum requirements for optimal performance.

Difficulty adjusting water temperature.

Ensure both hot and cold water supplies are connected correctly and are functioning. Check the ceramic cartridge for any obstructions or damage. Try operating the levers slowly to achieve a balanced mix.

Tap makes noise during operation.

Unusual noises can sometimes be caused by high water pressure or vibrations within the pipes. Check if the tap is securely fastened to the bath. If the noise is excessive, consult a plumber to assess water pressure and pipe conditions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Installation of this bath mixer tap typically requires connecting to both hot and cold water supply lines. The inlet connection size is G3/4. Due to the nature of plumbing work, professional installation by a qualified plumber is recommended to ensure correct and safe fitting, preventing leaks and damage.

Compatibility: This tap is designed to work with standard UK plumbing systems. It requires adequate water pressure to function optimally, as indicated by the flow rates at different bar pressures. Ensure your existing pipework can accommodate the G3/4 inlet connection size.
