FAQs

What type of basin do these taps fit?

These are pillar taps designed to fit basins with two standard tap holes, one for hot and one for cold water.

What is the minimum water pressure required?

A minimum of 0.2 bar water pressure is required for these taps to function correctly.

How do I clean and maintain the chrome finish?

Clean regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners to prevent scratching. Use mild detergent if needed, rinse, and dry thoroughly.

What is the warranty period?

Bristan offers a 5-year manufacturer's guarantee on these 1901 basin taps.

Are these taps suitable for all UK water systems?

Yes, they are compatible with all water systems in the UK, provided the minimum pressure requirement is met.

What does WRAS approved mean?

WRAS approval signifies that the product complies with the Water Supply (Water Fittings) Regulations 1999, ensuring it is safe for use with drinking water.

Can I replace the ceramic disc valves myself?

While possible for those with plumbing experience, it is often recommended to consult the installation manual or contact a professional plumber for maintenance involving internal components like ceramic discs.

Troubleshooting

Tap is dripping

Ensure the handles are fully closed. If dripping persists, the ceramic disc may need cleaning or replacement (refer to manufacturer guidance).

Low water flow

Check that the water pressure meets the minimum requirement of 0.2 bar. Inspect the aerator (if applicable) for blockages and clean if necessary.

Difficulty turning handles

The ceramic disc valves may require lubrication or replacement. Contact Bristan customer support or a qualified plumber.

No hot or cold water

Verify that the hot and cold water supply lines are correctly connected and that the isolation valves are open.
