FAQs

What is included in the Bristan Bath Tap Reviver kit?

The kit typically includes a pair of acrylic handles, standard valve mechanisms, and a selection of spacers and washers to ensure compatibility with various tap designs.

What types of taps is this reviver compatible with?

It is suitable for most Bristan 1/2" 5412, 3/4" 5412, and 3/4" 1010 bath taps. Always confirm compatibility with your specific model.

Can I use this reviver on taps from other brands?

While the spacers offer some adjustability, this reviver is designed specifically for compatible Bristan models. Use on other brands is not recommended and may lead to improper fit or leaks.

What water pressure range does this product support?

The reviver is designed to work with water pressures between 0.2 bar and 5.0 bar.

How long is the guarantee period?

Bristan products typically come with a guarantee. Please refer to the product packaging or Bristan's official website for the specific guarantee duration for this item.

Do I need special tools to install this?

Basic plumbing tools such as a screwdriver, possibly an adjustable wrench, and a cloth should be sufficient for installation. Ensure the main water supply is turned off before starting.

What should I do if the tap continues to leak after installation?

Ensure all components are fitted correctly and tightened appropriately. Check that the correct spacer and washer are in place for your tap's specific requirements. If the issue persists, it might indicate a problem with the tap body itself.

Troubleshooting

Tap still drips after installation.

Ensure the valve is correctly seated and tightened. Check if the correct washer and spacer combination was used for your tap's seating depth. If dripping persists, the tap body itself may be damaged or corroded and might require replacement.

Handle is stiff or difficult to turn.

Verify that the handle screw is not overtightened. Ensure no debris is obstructing the valve mechanism. The valve itself may be faulty, in which case a replacement valve would be needed.

Water leaks around the handle base.

Check that the valve is properly seated and that the handle is securely fastened. Inspect the O-ring or seal at the top of the valve body for damage and replace if necessary.

Product does not fit my existing tap.

Double-check the compatibility list against your tap model. Ensure you have used the correct combination of spacers and washers provided in the kit. If incompatibility is confirmed, this specific reviver may not be suitable for your tap.

Pros and Cons

  • Cost-effective alternative to replacing the entire tap.
  • Revitalizes the appearance and functionality of old taps.
  • Includes necessary components for installation.
  • Adjustable fit with included spacers and washers.
  • Suitable for a wide range of domestic water pressures.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: Before purchasing, verify that your Bristan tap is compatible. This reviver is suitable for most 1/2" 5412, 3/4" 5412, and 3/4" 1010 models. Check your existing tap for model numbers or consult the Bristan website.

Setup:

  1. Turn off the main water supply to your bathroom.
  2. Carefully remove the old tap handles. This usually involves prying off a decorative cap and unscrewing a fixing.
  3. Unscrew and remove the old valve.
  4. Select the appropriate spacer and washer from the kit to match your tap's seating depth.
  5. Install the new valve, ensuring it is seated correctly.
  6. Fit the new acrylic handle, securing it with the provided screw.
  7. Turn the water supply back on and test for leaks and proper operation.

Care: Clean the acrylic handles and chrome parts with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as these can scratch the finish. For internal components, regular checks for leaks are recommended.
