Product Information

Full details

The Bristan Nero Basin Mixer Tap in Chrome is designed for homeowners seeking a stylish, durable, and easy-to-operate faucet for their modern bathrooms. Its key benefit lies in the smooth quarter-turn ceramic cartridge for precise temperature and flow control, coupled with a robust solid brass construction for longevity. A potential consideration is its requirement for a minimum water pressure of 0.2 bar for optimal performance. This tap features a single lever, a fixed spout, deck-mounting installation, and comes with flexible tails for simplified setup.

Troubleshooting

Tap is dripping when turned off

This usually indicates an issue with the ceramic cartridge. Ensure the tap is fully closed. If the dripping persists, the cartridge may need replacing.

Low water flow

Check that the water pressure meets the minimum requirement of 0.2 bar. Inspect the flexible tails and internal components for any blockages or limescale buildup. Ensure the aerator, if present, is clean.

Difficulty operating the lever

The lever mechanism might be stiff due to limescale. Try gently working the lever back and forth. If resistance remains, the ceramic cartridge may need servicing or replacement.

Water not reaching the desired temperature

Verify that the hot and cold water supply connections are correct. Ensure your hot water system is functioning correctly and providing adequate hot water.
