FAQs

What is the 'rub clean' feature?

The 'rub clean' feature on the shower handset means the rubber nozzles can be easily rubbed with a finger or cloth to dislodge any limescale or debris, ensuring a clear and consistent water flow.

What warranty does this product come with?

The Bristan Molida Bath Shower Mixer comes with a 10-year parts guarantee and a 1-year labour guarantee for peace of mind.

Can I buy matching taps and accessories?

Yes, the Bristan Molida range offers co-ordinating bathroom taps and accessories in various finishes to create a complete look.

Is this mixer suitable for low water pressure systems?

While it is designed for standard UK plumbing, optimal performance is achieved with adequate water pressure. Check your system's pressure or consult a plumber if you have very low pressure.

How do I clean and maintain the chrome finish?

Clean regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners. For stubborn marks, use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner and rinse thoroughly.

What type of valves does this mixer use?

It uses long-life 1/4 turn ceramic disc valves, known for their durability and smooth, precise control.

How is the tap secured to the basin or bath?

It features a robust metal fixing nut underneath, which secures the tap firmly in place, reducing the risk of loosening over time.

Troubleshooting

Low water pressure from the shower handset.

Ensure the rub-clean nozzles are clear of debris. Check for any kinks in the shower hose. Verify that the water supply to the mixer is fully open and that household water pressure is within the recommended range.

Tap drips when turned off.

This usually indicates an issue with the ceramic disc valves. Ensure the mixer is fully turned off. If dripping persists, the ceramic disc cartridge may need servicing or replacement. Contact customer support or a qualified plumber.

Handle feels stiff or loose.

If stiff, mineral buildup might be affecting the valve. If loose, check the handle securing screw. If the issue persists, professional servicing of the internal valves may be required.

Chrome finish is dull or discoloured.

Clean the mixer with a soft, damp cloth and a mild, non-abrasive soap. Avoid harsh chemicals. Ensure no abrasive cleaning products were used previously.

Compatibility: This bath shower mixer is designed to be compatible with standard UK plumbing systems. Ensure your water pressure is adequate for optimal performance. Co-ordinating taps and accessories are available to complement this mixer.

Care: To maintain the flawless finish, regularly clean the mixer with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as these can damage the chrome surface.
