FAQs

What material is the GoodHome Owens bath tap made from?

While specific material composition isn't detailed, the tap is finished in silver and designed for durability and ease of cleaning, suggesting a high-quality metal construction.

Is this tap suitable for high or low water pressure systems?

The tap is designed to provide a powerful and efficient flow. It performs best with adequate water pressure but is engineered to offer good performance even with moderate pressure.

How do I clean the silver finish without damaging it?

Use a soft, damp cloth for regular cleaning. For tougher marks or limescale, a mild vinegar solution can be used, followed by a thorough rinse with clean water. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

Can I install this tap myself?

While basic DIY installation might be possible for experienced individuals, professional installation by a qualified plumber is recommended to ensure correct fitting and prevent leaks.

Does the tap come with a flow restrictor?

The product description focuses on efficient flow, but specific inclusion of a flow restrictor is not mentioned. It is designed to fill baths quickly.

What is the warranty period for this tap?

Please refer to the product packaging or the retailer's website for specific warranty information, as this can vary.

How do the textured handles improve usability?

The textured surface provides a better grip, making it easier and safer to turn the tap handles, especially when your hands are wet, reducing the chance of slipping.

Troubleshooting

Low water pressure

Check that the isolation valves under the sink are fully open. Ensure there are no kinks in the water supply hoses. Clean the aerator at the spout if it appears clogged.

Tap dripping when turned off

This often indicates a worn internal cartridge. Turn off the water supply to the tap, then carefully dismantle the handle and cartridge to inspect and replace if necessary. Professional assistance may be required.

Difficulty turning handles

Ensure the handles are not overtightened onto the valve stems. If stiff, try applying a small amount of silicone-based lubricant to the valve stem (ensure water is turned off first).

Water leaks from the base

Check the tightness of the mounting screws that secure the tap to the bath deck. Ensure the sealing washer or sealant underneath the tap base is intact and properly seated.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup: This deck-mounted tap is designed to be installed directly onto the rim of your bathtub. Ensure you have the necessary plumbing connections (hot and cold water supply) and the correct size hole drilled in your bath deck for mounting. It is recommended that installation is carried out by a qualified plumber to ensure a secure and leak-free fit.

Compatibility: The GoodHome Owens bath tap is compatible with standard UK plumbing systems. It requires both hot and cold water feeds. Ensure your water pressure is adequate for optimal performance, though the tap is designed to provide a powerful flow even with moderate pressure.

Care: To maintain the tap's appearance and functionality:

  1. Clean regularly with a soft, damp cloth.
  2. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as these can scratch the silver finish.
  3. For limescale buildup, use a mild vinegar solution and rinse thoroughly.
  4. Periodically check connections for any signs of leaks.
