FAQs

Is this valve suitable for cold water?

How long is the guarantee?

Can I use this on any Franke tap?

No, this part is specifically designed for the Franke Atessa Filter tap model.

How do I know if I need to replace the valve?

A persistent drip from the hot water spout, even when the tap is fully off, is a strong indicator that the valve cartridge may need replacement.

What tools will I need for installation?

Typically, you will need a screwdriver set (often Phillips head), adjustable pliers or a wrench, and possibly a cloth or penetrating lubricant.

Troubleshooting

Tap still dripping after replacement

Ensure the new valve cartridge is correctly seated and tightened. Check for any debris in the valve housing. Confirm you have the correct hot water valve replacement.

Water flow is reduced

Verify that the water supply valves are fully open. Check the aerator on the tap spout for blockages. Ensure the new valve was installed without obstructing the water flow path.

Difficulty removing the old valve

Apply a penetrating lubricant to help loosen stubborn threads. Ensure you are using the correct tools and applying steady pressure. If necessary, consult a professional.
