FAQs
What type of basin is this tap suitable for?
This tap is designed for countertop basins that do not have any pre-drilled tap holes. Its high rise design means it is deck-mounted directly onto the basin or countertop.
Does this tap come with a waste fitting?
No, this tap requires a separate basin waste fitting, which is not included with the product.
How do I clean the brushed copper finish?
Clean the brushed copper finish using a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals to prevent damage. Always wipe dry after cleaning.
What plumbing systems is this tap compatible with?
The Milano Elizabeth tap is compatible with all types of plumbing systems.
How does the ceramic disc technology work?
Ceramic disc technology uses two ceramic discs with holes that align to control water flow and temperature. This design is highly durable and prevents leaks and drips effectively.
How do I operate the hot and cold water?
The hot tap turns clockwise to open, and the cold tap turns anti-clockwise to open. The detailed ceramic indices on the handles clearly indicate which is which.
Can I install this tap myself?
While it is designed for deck mounting, basic plumbing knowledge is recommended. If you are not comfortable with plumbing, we advise hiring a professional installer.
Troubleshooting
Tap is dripping
Ensure the ceramic disc cartridge is properly seated and free from debris. If the issue persists, the cartridge may need replacement.
Low water pressure
Check the aerator for blockages and clean it. Ensure the isolation valves under the basin are fully open. Verify that there are no kinks in the flexible hoses.
Handle is stiff or loose
Check if the handle fixing screw is tight. If the handle is stiff, there may be internal debris or mineral buildup which could require professional attention.
Water leaks from the base
Ensure the sealing washer and backnut are securely tightened during installation. Check the integrity of the basin surface where the tap is mounted.
