How do I clean and maintain the chrome finish?
Use a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid abrasive cleaners to prevent scratching the polished surface. Rinse and dry thoroughly.
Do I need a professional plumber for installation?
While some DIYers may be comfortable, professional installation is often recommended for wall-mounted fixtures to ensure proper sealing and secure mounting.
What is the warranty period for this product?
Please refer to the product packaging or manufacturer's website for specific warranty details, as these can vary.
Troubleshooting
No water flow or low pressure
Check that the hot and cold water supply valves are fully open. Ensure there are no kinks in the supply hoses. Inspect the aerator (if applicable) for blockages and clean if necessary. Verify wall-mounted connections are secure.
Difficulty controlling temperature
Ensure both hot and cold water supplies are adequately heated and cooled respectively. Check the internal ceramic disc cartridge for debris or damage. If issues persist, professional servicing may be required.
Leaking from the spout or base
Tighten any visible external connections. If the leak appears internal, the cartridge or seals may need replacement. Consult the installation manual or a professional plumber.
Tap is loose on the wall
The wall mounting bracket may have become dislodged. Carefully inspect the wall fixings and re-secure the tap according to the installation guide. Ensure the wall material can support the weight.
