FAQs
Does this tap include the mounting hardware?
Yes, the tap comes with standard fixings required for a deck-mounted installation.
Can this be used with low-pressure gravity systems?
Only if your system provides at least 0.5 Bar of pressure. Standard gravity systems often provide less than this, so a booster pump may be required.
What is the finish material?
The tap is constructed from solid brass and features a polished silver chrome-style finish.
Is the aerator replaceable?
Yes, the aerator is removable and standard in size, allowing for easy cleaning or replacement if damaged.
How do I control the temperature?
The tap uses a single lever; move the lever left or right to adjust the mix of hot and cold water.
What is the warranty coverage?
Please refer to the documentation provided in your specific packaging or contact the retailer, as warranty terms vary by distributor.
Troubleshooting
Water flow is weak or spluttering
Unscrew the aerator at the tip of the spout and clean any trapped debris or mineral deposits.
Tap handle feels loose
Tighten the grub screw located under the lever handle using a small Allen key.
Dripping from the spout
Ensure the lever is fully closed; if dripping persists, the ceramic cartridge may need to be replaced.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation Requirements
Before purchasing, ensure your bath has two pre-drilled holes ready for mounting. The dimensions (H149 x W180 x D139 mm) are standard for most modern bathtubs, but it is recommended to measure your vanity or bath ledge clearance to ensure the lever has enough room to rotate fully back for hot water settings.
Pressure Compatibility
This tap requires a minimum of 0.5 Bar pressure. If you are unsure of your home's water pressure, you can consult a local plumber or check your boiler/pump specifications.
Maintenance Tips
- Cleaning: Clean the polished surface regularly with a soft cloth and warm soapy water. Avoid abrasive sponges or harsh chemical cleaners, as these can dull the silver finish.
- Aerator Care: If you notice a reduction in water flow, unscrew the aerator from the spout tip. Soak it in a solution of vinegar and water to dissolve limescale and rinse thoroughly before reattaching.
- Periodic Inspection: Check the mounting nuts under the deck periodically to ensure the tap remains firmly secured to the bath.
