Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
These taps are designed for monobloc installation, meaning they fit into a single tap hole found on most standard basins. Ensure the basin has a suitable tap hole diameter. The G 1/2" fixation nut makes securing the tap straightforward. It is recommended to have plumbing knowledge or to employ a qualified professional for installation to ensure a watertight and secure fit. Connect the hot and cold water supply lines according to standard plumbing practices.
Compatibility:
- Pressure: Minimum recommended operating pressure is 1.0 bar. They are suitable for low-pressure systems but will perform best with at least this pressure. High-pressure systems are generally compatible, but ensure your system can handle standard tap pressures.
- Hole Size: Requires a standard single tap hole (usually around 35mm diameter).
- Connections: Uses standard G 1/2" connections for water supply.
Care:
To maintain the GROHE Long-Life finish, clean the taps regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, or harsh chemical detergents, as these can damage the finish. For stubborn marks, a mild soap solution can be used, followed by rinsing with clean water and drying with a soft cloth. The ceramic headpart generally requires no user maintenance but ensures smooth operation.
