Product Information

Full details

This Invena Kitchen Cold Water Tap is designed for homeowners seeking a durable and stylish single-lever tap for their kitchen's cold water supply. Its key benefit is a blend of classic and contemporary design with robust chrome-plated brass construction. A potential caveat is that it is solely for cold water use and requires a minimum working pressure of 0.5 MPa (5 bar). The tap features a single flow, a ceramic single lever valve for smooth operation, and a C-type spout, all finished in a sleek silver chrome.

FAQs

Is this tap suitable for hot water?

No, this is specifically a cold water tap and is not designed to be connected to a hot water supply.

What is the thread size for installation?

The tap features a standard 1/2" BSP thread size for connection to your plumbing.

What is the maximum water pressure this tap can handle?

The maximum recommended working pressure is 0.5 MPa (5 bar).

How do I clean the chrome finish?

Wipe with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or pads to prevent scratching.

What type of valve mechanism does it use?

It uses a ceramic disc valve for durable and smooth operation.

Can I use this tap for any kitchen sink?

Yes, provided the sink has a standard tap hole and the plumbing is compatible with the minimum pressure requirement of 0.5 MPa (5 bar).

Troubleshooting

Tap drips or leaks from the spout.

Check that the handle is fully closed. If the dripping persists, the ceramic disc valve may need replacement, or ensure there are no debris particles causing interference.

Low water flow.

Ensure the water supply is fully open. Check the aerator (if applicable) for blockages and clean it. Verify that the water pressure meets the minimum requirement of 0.5 MPa (5 bar).

Handle is stiff or difficult to move.

The ceramic disc valve may require lubrication or replacement. Ensure no debris has entered the valve mechanism.

Tap is noisy during operation.

Check water pressure. If pressure is too high, a pressure-reducing valve may be needed. Ensure all connections are secure.

  • Easy to clean due to the smooth chrome finish.

Cons

  • This is a cold water tap only; it cannot provide hot water.
  • Requires a minimum working pressure of 0.5 MPa (5 bar), which may not be suitable for all plumbing systems.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Installation requires connecting the tap to the cold water supply line using its 1/2" BSP thread. Ensure the water supply is turned off before beginning. Secure the tap firmly to the sink or countertop, ensuring a watertight seal. Professional installation is recommended if you are not experienced with plumbing.

Compatibility: This tap is designed for cold water lines only. It requires a minimum working pressure of 0.5 MPa (5 bar). Ensure your plumbing system meets this requirement for optimal performance.

Care: To maintain the tap's shine, regularly clean the chrome surface with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as these can scratch the finish. For stubborn water spots, a mild soap solution can be used, followed by rinsing and drying.
