FAQs
What is the warranty period for this tap?
The Reginox Marta tap comes with a 10-year manufacturer's warranty against manufacturing defects. However, serviceable parts are covered by a 6-month warranty, and the warranty does not cover damage caused during installation or general wear and tear.
What water pressure is required for this tap?
The tap is suitable for water pressures ranging from a minimum of 0.5 bar to a maximum of 5.0 bar.
How do I clean the polished chrome finish?
Clean the tap regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, or harsh chemicals that could damage the finish.
Is the pull-out hose easy to replace?
Replacement of the pull-out hose typically involves disconnecting it from the main tap body and the spout fitting. Instructions should be followed carefully, and professional assistance may be required if you are not comfortable with plumbing tasks.
Can this tap be used with an instant hot water system?
The tap is designed for standard hot and cold water supplies. Compatibility with specific instant hot water systems should be checked against the system's requirements and the tap's pressure rating (0.5-5.0 bar).
What does the 6-month warranty on serviceable parts cover?
The 6-month warranty covers specific serviceable parts not explicitly stated otherwise, which typically include items like seals or O-rings that are subject to wear. It does not cover general wear and tear.
Does the warranty cover damage that occurs during installation?
No, the warranty explicitly states that it does not cover damage caused during fitting, installation, or servicing.
Troubleshooting
Tap is not dispensing water or flow is very weak.
Check that the isolation valves under the sink are fully open. Ensure the pull-out hose is not kinked or blocked. Check the aerator at the end of the spout for blockages. If the issue persists, verify water pressure is within the 0.5-5.0 bar range.
The pull-out hose is leaking.
Inspect the hose connections at both the spout end and the main body of the tap for tightness. Check the hose itself for any signs of damage or wear. If the hose is damaged, it may need to be replaced. Ensure the connection to the sprayer head is secure.
Single lever is stiff or difficult to move.
This may indicate an issue with the ceramic disc valve. If the tap is within its 6-month warranty for serviceable parts, contact the manufacturer. Otherwise, the ceramic valve may require cleaning or replacement.
Tap drips from the spout after turning off.
This often indicates a worn or damaged ceramic disc cartridge. The cartridge may need to be replaced. Ensure the lever is fully closed after use.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The Reginox Marta tap is designed for deck-mounted installation, meaning it is fitted directly onto the surface of your sink or countertop. Ensure you have a suitable pre-drilled hole. Connections will typically involve standard flexible hoses connecting to your hot and cold water supply. Professional installation is recommended to ensure proper sealing and connection, especially considering warranty exclusions for fitting damage.
Compatibility: This tap is suitable for water pressures ranging from 0.5 to 5.0 bar. It is designed to work with standard UK plumbing systems. The swivel spout makes it adaptable to both single and multi-bowl sinks.
Care: To maintain the polished chrome finish, clean the tap regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the surface and void the warranty. For internal components, the quarter-turn ceramic valve is replaceable. Periodically check for any signs of wear on the pull-out hose connection and the valve mechanism.
