FAQs

Does this mixer come with the basic set included?

No, the required basic set (#01800180) must be purchased and installed separately.

Can I use this for a shower-only setup?

While designed as a bath mixer, it can control two outlets. You could use one output for a shower head and one for a hand shower, provided the plumbing is configured correctly.

What is the minimum pressure required?

The system requires a minimum operating pressure of 1 bar to function effectively.

How do I clean the matt black finish?

Clean with mild soap and water, then wipe dry with a soft cloth. Do not use acidic cleaners or abrasive scrubbing pads.

Is the handle easy to use with wet hands?

Yes, the single lever design is ergonomic and designed for easy operation even with soapy or wet hands.

Troubleshooting

Low water flow from outlets

Check the aerator for mineral buildup and clean it with a vinegar solution or descaler.

Diverter fails to reset

Ensure the water pressure is within the 1-10 bar operating range; low pressure may prevent the automatic reset mechanism from engaging.

Temperature is not hot enough

Adjust the temperature limit setting on the internal ceramic cartridge during maintenance.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Sleek and modern matt black finish
  • High water flow capacity for efficient bath filling
  • Compact concealed installation saves surface space
  • Easy-to-use single lever for temperature and volume control
  • Quiet operation with Noise Class I rating

Cons

  • Requires purchase of the separate basic set #01800180
  • Concealed installation is more complex than exposed plumbing
  • Matt black finish may show water spots more than chrome

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation of the Vernis Blend must be performed by a professional plumber as it requires the Hansgrohe basic set #01800180 to be installed within the wall first. Ensure the system is flushed before final trim installation to prevent debris from damaging the ceramic cartridge. For care, avoid using abrasive sponges or harsh chemicals that could scratch or degrade the matt black finish. A soft microfiber cloth and mild, pH-neutral soap are sufficient to keep the surface pristine. Regularly check that the aerators are free of limescale buildup to maintain optimal flow rates.
