FAQs

What material are the Iflo Bilbao Bath Taps made from?

The taps are constructed from solid brass with a Duragleam chrome finish.

Are these taps suitable for all bathroom types?

Yes, their classic design makes them suitable for a wide range of bathroom aesthetics.

What makes the brass back nuts superior?

Brass back nuts provide a stronger, more durable, and longer-lasting fit compared to plastic alternatives, reducing the risk of loosening over time.

How do I clean and maintain the chrome finish?

Clean regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners. For tougher spots, use a mild soap solution and rinse thoroughly, then buff dry.

Can I install these taps myself?

While possible for those with plumbing experience, professional installation is recommended to ensure the secure fitting of the brass back nuts and proper functioning.

What is Duragleam chrome?

Duragleam chrome is a high-quality plating that offers exceptional durability and a lasting, brilliant finish resistant to tarnishing and wear.

Do these taps come with a waste or overflow mechanism?

This product is for the taps only; waste and overflow fittings are typically sold separately.

Troubleshooting

Tap is dripping after installation.

Ensure the internal valve components are seated correctly and that the handle is fully closed. If the issue persists, internal cartridges may need cleaning or replacement.

Low water flow.

Check that the isolation valves under the bath are fully open. Inspect the aerator (if present) or the inlet pipes for any blockages or sediment buildup.

Taps feel loose.

Tighten the brass back nuts securely from underneath the bath. Ensure they are not overtightened, which could damage the fittings.

Chrome finish appears dull.

Clean the tap with a soft, damp cloth and a mild, non-abrasive cleaner. Buff dry with a separate soft cloth to restore shine. Avoid harsh chemicals.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These taps are designed for standard bath tap installations. It is recommended to use a qualified plumber for installation to ensure the brass back nuts are fitted correctly for a superior and lasting fit. Ensure water supply is turned off before commencing installation. Follow any manufacturer-provided diagrams for connecting hot and cold water lines.

Compatibility: The Iflo Bilbao Bath Taps are compatible with standard plumbing systems for baths. The connections are typically designed for common pipe sizes, but always verify dimensions if undertaking a DIY installation.

For stubborn marks, a mild soap solution can be used, followed by a rinse with clean water and a final buff with a soft cloth.
