Troubleshooting

No water flow or very low flow

Check that the water supply is turned on. Ensure the minimum operating pressure of 7.3 psi is met. Inspect the inlet connections and shower head for any blockages or debris.

Tap is dripping when turned off

The ceramic disc cartridge may be faulty or have debris. Try tightening the handle mechanism. If the problem persists, the cartridge may need replacement. Contact customer support.

Difficulty controlling water temperature

Ensure both hot and cold water supplies are correctly connected and functioning. Make sure the double-tap handles are fully operational and not stiff. Check for any obstructions in the internal valve pathways.

Shower head has uneven spray

Mineral deposits may have accumulated. Gently clean the shower head nozzles with a soft brush or a descaling solution suitable for chrome. Refer to the care instructions for cleaning.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

This is a deck-mounted fixture requiring two tap holes on the edge of your bathtub. Ensure you have the necessary plumbing connections (G3/4" inlet) readily available. While installation is designed to be straightforward, professional plumbing is recommended to ensure correct fitting and prevent leaks.

Compatibility:

The VeeBath Carter Bath Shower Mixer is compatible with standard UK plumbing systems. It operates effectively across a range of water pressures, from a minimum of 7.3 psi to a maximum of 48.4 psi. It features standard G3/4" inlet connections.

Care:

To maintain the pristine chrome finish, regularly clean the tap with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the plating. For stubborn marks, a mild, non-abrasive household cleaner can be used, followed by a thorough rinse and buffing with a soft cloth.
