Tap drips when turned off

This could indicate a worn ceramic disc cartridge or a loose valve. Check for tightness and consider replacing the cartridge if the issue persists. Ensure the tap is fully closed.

Low water flow

Check that the water pressure meets the minimum requirement of 0.5 bar. Inspect the aerator for blockages or debris. Ensure shut-off valves under the sink are fully open.

Difficulty moving the lever

The ceramic disc cartridge may require lubrication or replacement. Ensure no debris is obstructing the lever mechanism.

Tap makes noise during operation

This can sometimes be due to water pressure fluctuations or internal components. Check water pressure and ensure all connections are secure.
