FAQs

What is included with the RAK Ceramics Bath Shower Mixer Tap?

The RAK Ceramics Bath Shower Mixer Tap includes the main mixer unit. It does not typically include the shower head, shower hose, or waste fittings, which are usually sold separately.

What type of plumbing system is required for this tap?

This tap is compatible with standard UK plumbing systems. It requires both hot and cold water connections. Balanced water pressure is recommended for optimal performance.

How do I switch between the bath filler and the shower?

There is a diverter mechanism, usually integrated into the tap's control lever or a separate button, which allows you to switch the water flow from the bath spout to the shower outlet.

Warranty periods can vary by retailer and region. Please refer to the product packaging or contact your point of purchase for specific warranty details.

Is the polished chrome finish durable?

The polished chrome finish is designed to be durable for bathroom use. However, to maintain its shine and prevent water spots, regular cleaning and drying with a soft cloth are recommended.

Troubleshooting

Tap is leaking from the base

Ensure the seals and connections are correctly tightened during installation. Re-seal if necessary.

Low water pressure from shower or bath spout

Check that the hot and cold water supplies are fully open and that there are no kinks in the pipework. Ensure your home's water pressure is adequate, or consider a pressure booster if necessary.

Difficulty switching between bath and shower modes

Check the diverter mechanism for any debris or obstruction. Ensure the lever is being moved fully and smoothly.

Inconsistent water temperature

Verify that your hot water system is functioning correctly and providing a stable temperature. Check that the hot and cold water feeds to the tap are balanced.
