FAQs
What material is the tap made of?
The tap is constructed from solid brass for maximum durability and corrosion resistance.
Does it come with a hose?
No, the tap does not include a hose. It features a quick connect inlet designed to accept standard garden hoses and fittings.
What size is the outlet thread?
The outlet has a standard ¾” BSP thread, which is compatible with most common garden accessories.
Can this tap be installed indoors?
While durable, this tap is designed and intended for outdoor use. Indoor installation is possible but not its primary application.
How do I prevent freezing damage?
To prevent damage from freezing, ensure the tap is completely drained of water during cold weather periods. You can do this by opening the valve and disconnecting the hose.
Is installation difficult?
Basic installation involves mounting the tap to a vertical surface and connecting a hose. This typically requires standard tools and some DIY familiarity.
What is the warranty period?
Please refer to the product packaging or manufacturer's website for specific warranty information, as this can vary.
Troubleshooting
Tap is leaking from the handle.
Ensure the valve is fully closed. If the leak persists, the internal valve seal may need replacement, which typically involves disassembling the handle and valve stem.
Water flow is weak or intermittent.
Check that the hose is fully connected and not kinked. Ensure the ball valve is fully open (90° turn). Inspect the outlet for any blockages.
Hose connection is difficult to attach.
Ensure you are using a standard quick-connect fitting. Check the fitting for any debris or damage that might be preventing a secure lock.
Tap is difficult to turn.
Ensure the ball valve is fully open or closed. If stiff, try gently working the handle back and forth. A small amount of silicone lubricant on the valve stem might help, but ensure it is safe for potable water if used for drinking purposes (though this tap is for outdoor use).
