FAQs
What is the finish of these taps?
The taps have a durable and reflective chrome finish.
Are these taps suitable for a low-pressure system?
While designed for general use, performance on very low-pressure systems may vary. It is recommended to check your water pressure for optimal performance.
Can I install these taps myself?
Basic plumbing knowledge is helpful for installation. If you are not comfortable with plumbing, we recommend hiring a qualified professional.
How do I clean the chrome finish?
Clean with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid abrasive cleaners to prevent scratching.
What is the main advantage of lever-operated taps?
Lever-operated taps are easier to use, especially for individuals with limited hand strength or dexterity, and allow for one-handed operation.
What is included in the box?
The product typically includes the pair of pillar taps. Flexible hoses and other plumbing fittings for connection to the water supply are usually sold separately.
Troubleshooting
Tap is leaking from the base
Check that the tap is securely seated and the seals are correctly positioned. Ensure the fixing nut is tightened appropriately.
Water flow is weak
Ensure the water supply valves are fully open. Check the aerator (if present) for blockages and clean it. Verify water pressure is adequate for the system.
Lever is stiff to operate
Check for any obstructions around the handle mechanism. If the issue persists, internal components may require servicing or replacement.
No hot or cold water
Confirm that the hot and cold water supply lines are correctly connected and that the respective supply valves are open.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup:
Ensure the water supply is turned off before installation. The taps are designed to fit standard basin tap holes. Connect the hot and cold water supply lines according to the included instructions, typically using flexible hoses (not always included). Secure the taps to the basin using the provided fixings.
Compatibility:
These taps are compatible with most standard UK basins that have two tap holes spaced appropriately for pillar taps. They are suitable for use with systems where water pressure is sufficient for effective operation.
Care:
To maintain the chrome finish, regularly clean the taps with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as these can scratch the surface. For stubborn marks, a mild soap solution can be used, followed by rinsing and drying with a clean cloth.
