Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before starting, you must shut off the water supply at the local isolation valve or the main stopcock to prevent flooding. Carefully dismantle the tap handle and cartridge housing using an adjustable wrench. Remove the old washer, clean any debris or limescale from the seating area, and seat the new 23mm dome washer firmly. Ensure the cartridge is tightened correctly during reassembly, but avoid overtightening, as this can compress the washer prematurely. Regularly check your taps for debris buildup to ensure the washers remain in good condition.
