FAQs

What is the main advantage of the 1/4 turn ceramic disc?

The 1/4 turn ceramic disc allows for very quick on/off operation with just a quarter turn of the lever, saving time and reducing water waste compared to traditional full-turn taps.

Is this mixer suitable for a standard bathroom sink?

Yes, this basin mixer is designed for standard bathroom sinks and washbasins, using a common 1/4" thread for water connections.

How do I clean the chrome finish?

Clean the chrome finish with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher spots, use a mild soap and water solution, then rinse and dry thoroughly. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

What material is the mixer made from?

The mixer is constructed from chrome-plated brass, featuring a sturdy brass cartridge with ceramic disc seals.

Can I install this myself?

While basic installation may be possible for those with plumbing experience, professional installation by a qualified plumber is recommended to ensure correct setup and prevent potential issues.

What is the purpose of the extended lever?

The extended lever provides easier and more comfortable operation, especially for users who may have difficulty with smaller handles, or when hands are wet or soapy.

Troubleshooting

Water leak from the base of the mixer.

Ensure the mounting nut is tightened securely. Check the seals and gaskets for wear and replace if necessary.

Low water flow.

Check the aerator for blockages and clean it. Ensure water supply valves are fully open. Verify compatibility with water pressure.

Hot and cold water not mixing correctly.

Verify that the hot and cold water supply lines are connected to the correct inlets on the mixer. Ensure water supply valves are fully open.

Lever is stiff or difficult to move.

The internal ceramic cartridge may require cleaning or replacement. Ensure there are no obstructions.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Easy operation with extended lever.
  • Quick on/off functionality saves water.
  • Durable construction with brass cartridge and ceramic discs.
  • Clear hot and cold indicators for user convenience.
  • Modern silver finish complements various bathroom styles.

Cons

  • Standard 1/4" thread may require adapter for non-standard plumbing.
  • Single mixer unit (hot and cold supplied via one spout).
  • Requires a quarter turn, which may differ from older full-turn faucets.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Installation typically involves connecting the standard 1/4" threaded hoses to your existing hot and cold water supply lines. Ensure the mounting nut is securely tightened to prevent leaks. It is recommended that installation is performed by a qualified plumber to ensure proper connection and function.

Compatibility: This basin mixer is designed to work with standard UK/EU plumbing configurations featuring a 1/4" thread for water connections. Always verify your existing plumbing thread size before purchase.

Care: To maintain the chrome finish, clean regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as these can scratch the surface. For stubborn water spots, a mild detergent mixed with water can be used, followed by a thorough rinse and buff dry.
