FAQs

What is the minimum water pressure required for this tap?

The Rangemaster Conical TCO1 tap requires a minimum water pressure of 0.3 Bar to function correctly.

How do I clean the black finish without damaging it?

Clean the tap with a soft, damp cloth and mild, non-abrasive detergent. Always rinse thoroughly and dry with a clean cloth to prevent water spots and maintain the finish.

What does the 360° swivel spout offer?

The 360° swivel spout provides a wide range of movement, allowing you to easily direct water flow across your sink, making it convenient for filling large pots or cleaning tasks.

How long is the manufacturer's guarantee?

The tap comes with a 5 Year manufacturer's guarantee against manufacturing defects.

Is this tap suitable for all plumbing systems?

Yes, it is suitable for low to high pressure systems, operating within a range of 0.3 to 5.5 Bar. It requires a single-hole installation.

What is a ceramic disc cartridge?

A ceramic disc cartridge provides precise control over water flow and temperature. It is more durable than traditional washers and is designed to prevent leaks, offering a longer operational life.

Troubleshooting

Tap is dripping from the spout

The ceramic disc cartridge may be worn or a piece of debris may be present. Turn off the water supply, remove the handle, and check/clean the cartridge. If damaged, replace the cartridge.

Low water flow

Check that the water supply valves are fully open. Clean the honeycomb aerator for any potential blockage. Ensure your system pressure meets the minimum requirement of 0.3 Bar.

Water not heating up or only lukewarm

Verify that the hot water supply is connected correctly to the designated inlet and that your hot water system is functioning properly. Check lever operation for correct mixing.

Tap is loose on the sink

Tighten the fixing kit underneath the sink or countertop that secures the tap in place.
