Troubleshooting

Tap is dripping or leaking

Check that the tap is fully turned off. If the dripping persists, the internal ceramic disc cartridge may need cleaning or replacing. Ensure flexible hoses are securely tightened.

Low water flow from the spout

Check for blockages in the aerator (flow straightener) at the end of the spout. Unscrew and clean it. Also, ensure there are no kinks in the flexible hoses and that the water supply is open.

Tap lever is stiff or difficult to move

The internal mechanism might have debris. Turn off the water supply and gently try to clean around the lever base. If stiffness persists, the cartridge may require attention or replacement.

Pop-up waste is not sealing or operating correctly

Check the linkage and pivot points of the pop-up waste mechanism for obstructions or misalignment. Ensure the cable is properly connected and adjusted.
