Troubleshooting
Tap is dripping from the spout
This is often due to worn ceramic disc valves. Ensure the tap is fully turned off. If dripping persists, the internal ceramic disc cartridge may need replacement. Refer to the manufacturer's manual for specific instructions.
Low water flow from one or both outlets
Check the aerator at the end of the spout for debris or limescale. Unscrew and clean it. Also, ensure the isolation valves under the sink are fully open and that there are no kinks in the supply hoses.
Tap is loose on the sink deck
Tighten the securing nut or bracket located underneath the sink that fastens the tap to the deck. Do not overtighten, as this can damage the sink or countertop.
Difficulty controlling water temperature
Ensure both hot and cold water supplies are connected correctly to the respective inlets. Check that the hot water system is functioning correctly and providing adequate hot water volume and temperature.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
