Product Information

Full details

The Affine Dakota Black Bath Shower Mixer Tap Set is designed for homeowners seeking a stylish and functional upgrade to their daily shower and bath experience. Its key benefit is the combination of a luxurious overhead rain shower, a versatile adjustable handset, and an elegant waterfall bath spout, all in a striking matt black finish. A potential caveat is its suitability for medium pressure systems, meaning it may not perform optimally in very low-pressure environments.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

What water pressure is recommended for this shower mixer tap set?

The Affine Dakota set is designed for medium water pressure systems, functioning optimally between 0.5 and 3 bar. It may not perform as expected in very low-pressure environments.

What is the flow rate at 3 bar pressure?

At 3 bar pressure, the set offers a flow rate of up to 51.3 liters per minute, providing a powerful and efficient water delivery.

How do I clean and maintain the matt black finish?

Clean the finish with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the matt black coating. For limescale, use a mild solution and rinse thoroughly.

What material is the tap set made from?

The tap set is constructed from durable solid brass, ensuring longevity and resistance to corrosion.

Does the set include all necessary parts for installation?

The set includes the shower head, handset, riser rail, mixer tap, and flexi tails. However, standard plumbing fittings and tools may be required, and professional installation is recommended.

What is the warranty period for this product?

The Affine Dakota Bath Shower Mixer Tap Set comes with a 5-year manufacturer's guarantee.

Can I replace the overhead shower head with a different one?

While the riser rail allows for adjustment, replacing the overhead shower head itself would depend on compatibility with standard shower arm fittings. The included head is designed to work with the system.

Troubleshooting

No water or low water flow from shower head/handset

Check that the stop valves are fully open. Ensure water pressure meets the minimum requirement for medium pressure systems (0.5 bar). Clean any blockages in the shower head or handset nozzles. Verify that the flexi tails are not kinked.

Water dripping from the spout or shower head when off

The ceramic disc cartridge may be damaged or have debris. It is designed to be drip-resistant, so a persistent drip indicates a need for cartridge inspection or replacement. Contact customer support for assistance.

Difficulty adjusting temperature

Ensure both hot and cold water supplies are functioning correctly. Check that the levers are moving freely and that the hot water supply is sufficiently hot. If issues persist, the internal thermostatic mixing valve (if applicable to the specific setup) or cartridge may need servicing.

Water leaks from connections

Ensure all connections are securely tightened. Check that any seals or washers are correctly seated and not damaged. If using flexi tails, ensure they are properly connected to the tap and the water supply.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

This mixer tap set requires installation by a qualified plumber. Ensure your water system is compatible with medium pressure (0.5 - 3 bar). The inlet connection size is G3/4, and flexi tails are included for connection.

Compatibility:

Water Pressure: Suitable for medium pressure systems (0.5 - 3 bar).
System Types: Generally compatible with most standard hot and cold water systems, including combi boilers, unvented systems, and gravity-fed systems (ensure pressure is adequate).

Care:

To maintain the matt black finish and functionality:

Cleaning: Wipe clean with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the finish.
Limescale: For areas with hard water, regularly clean the shower heads and spout to prevent limescale buildup. A mild vinegar solution can be effective when used sparingly and rinsed thoroughly.
Maintenance: Periodically check connections for any signs of leaks. The ceramic cartridge is designed for durability, but extreme water conditions can affect longevity.
