Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: This is a wall-mounted faucet. Ensure you have the appropriate water supply connections behind the wall at the correct height and spacing for the faucet's design. Professional installation is recommended to ensure a secure and leak-free fit.
Compatibility: The faucet uses a standard 3/8 inch connection diameter for hot and cold water lines. Verify that your existing plumbing lines match this size. Adapters may be necessary if your plumbing uses a different connection size.
Care: To maintain the faucet's appearance, clean it regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the electroplated finish. For tougher spots, a mild soap solution can be used, followed by rinsing with clean water and drying with a soft cloth.
