FAQs

What material is the tap made from?

The tap is constructed from solid brass with a chrome finish.

What is the advantage of the swivel spout?

The swivel spout offers greater flexibility and makes it easier to use the sink for various tasks, such as washing large items or cleaning both sides of a double sink.

How do I operate the tap?

The tap features easy-to-use crosshead controls for adjusting water flow and temperature.

Is this tap suitable for modern kitchens?

The tap features a classic French style design, which is best suited for traditional or French provincial kitchen aesthetics. It may not align with very modern or minimalist decor.

What is the warranty period?

This Buyaparcel tap comes with a 10-year guarantee.

Can I install this tap myself?

While basic installation might seem straightforward, it is highly recommended to have a qualified plumber install the tap to ensure it is fitted correctly and safely, preventing potential leaks or damage.

How should I clean the chrome finish?

Clean the chrome finish with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher grime, use a mild, non-abrasive soap. Always dry with a soft cloth to prevent water spots.

Troubleshooting

Tap is dripping from the spout.

Ensure the crosshead handles are fully closed. If the dripping persists, a valve seat or washer may need replacement, which should be handled by a professional.

Low water pressure.

Check if the aerator (if present) at the end of the spout is clogged and needs cleaning. Also, verify that the isolation valves under the sink are fully open.

Tap is loose in the sink.

Tighten the mounting nuts securing the tap from underneath the sink. This may require a plumber's wrench.

Water leaks from the base of the tap.

The seals at the base may need to be replaced or tightened. This is a task best suited for a professional plumber.
