FAQs
What is the warranty period for this tap?
This Aurora Bathroom Sink Mixer Tap comes with a 5-year guarantee, covering manufacturing defects and ensuring quality.
How do I clean the polished chrome finish?
Use a soft, damp cloth with mild soap and water. Rinse thoroughly and dry with a clean cloth to maintain shine and prevent water spots.
Is this tap suitable for a low-pressure water system?
Yes, the tap provides a flow rate of 9 l/min at 0.5 bar, which is functional for basic use. Higher pressures will yield a greater flow rate.
What does 'mixer tap' mean?
A mixer tap, like this one, combines hot and cold water lines into a single unit, allowing you to control both temperature and flow with a single lever.
What are the dimensions of the flexible tails included?
The flexible tails have an inlet connection size of F1/2*M10*1*400mm.
Can this tap be installed in a countertop with three tap holes?
No, this tap is designed for sinks or countertops with a single tap hole due to its integrated mixer design.
What is the benefit of a ceramic cartridge?
A ceramic cartridge provides durability and allows for smooth, quarter-turn operation, offering reliable performance and a long lifespan compared to traditional washer systems.
Troubleshooting
Tap is not dispensing water
Check that the mains water supply is turned on. Ensure the isolation valves under the sink are open. Verify that the flexible tails are not kinked.
Low water flow
Check the water pressure at the mains. Ensure the isolation valves are fully open. Clean any aerator or debris trap at the spout if applicable (refer to product manual for specific cleaning instructions).
Water temperature is difficult to adjust
Ensure hot and cold water supplies are correctly connected. Operate the single lever smoothly to find the desired temperature mix. If issues persist, the ceramic cartridge may need inspection or replacement.
Tap is leaking from the base
Check that the fixing kit is securely tightened. Ensure any seals or washers are correctly seated and undamaged. If the leak persists, the internal cartridge might be faulty.
Water sputtering from the spout
This can indicate air in the system or a partially blocked aerator. Bleed the system by running water on full flow for a minute. Clean the aerator if present.
