Product Information

Full details

This Bristan Axla kitchen sink mixer tap in silver is ideal for homeowners seeking enhanced functionality and water-saving convenience in their kitchen. Its key benefit is the professional pull-down hose for easy cleaning and a swivel spout for maximum reach, while the Eco Start technology offers energy savings by defaulting to cold water. A potential caveat is the need for installation to comply with local Water Authority/Water Regulations.

FAQs

What does 'Eco Start' technology mean?

Eco Start means the tap defaults to delivering cold water when the handle is in the central position. This saves energy by preventing your boiler from unnecessarily heating water for small tasks or when only cold water is needed. Hot water is only activated when you move the handle to the left.

Is installation difficult?

The tap comes with flexible tails and a fixing kit, designed for straightforward installation. However, it is recommended to follow the included instructions and ensure compliance with local Water Authority/Water Regulations. If you are not comfortable with plumbing, professional installation is advised.

How do I clean the tap's silver finish?

Clean the tap regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Use a mild detergent for tougher marks, rinse well, and always wipe dry to maintain the shine and prevent water spots. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

What is the warranty period for this tap?

The Bristan Axla tap comes with a 10-year parts guarantee and a 1-year labour guarantee for peace of mind.

Can I use this tap with a combi boiler system?

Yes, this tap is generally compatible with most water systems, including combi boilers, provided your system meets the minimum and maximum water pressure requirements specified by the manufacturer.

What are the benefits of the pull-down hose?

The pull-down hose offers significant convenience, making it easier to rinse dishes, clean the sink basin, fill large pots, and spray hard-to-reach areas.

Troubleshooting

Tap is dripping

This may be due to debris in the ceramic cartridge. Turn off the water supply, remove the cartridge, clean it, and reassemble. If the issue persists, the cartridge may need replacing.

Low water pressure

Check if the flow aerator or the pull-down hose is blocked. Unscrew the aerator and clean it, or check the hose for kinks. Ensure your mains water pressure is adequate.

Pull-down hose is not retracting smoothly

Ensure the hose is not kinked or obstructed underneath the sink. Check that the hose weight (if applicable) is correctly positioned.

Hot water not activating

Verify that the hot water supply is turned on and that the tap handle is being moved correctly to the left from the central Eco Start position. Check for any blockages in the hot water line.
