FAQs

What type of waste fitting do I need for this tap?

This tap requires a standard basin waste fitting. As the waste is not included, you will need to purchase one separately that is compatible with your basin's waste outlet.

What is the minimum water pressure required?

The Bristan Cobalt tap requires a minimum working pressure of 0.3 bar for optimal performance.

How long is the guarantee period?

The tap comes with a 10-year manufacturer's guarantee, subject to terms and conditions.

Is the tap easy to install for a DIY enthusiast?

Yes, the tap features flexible tails and a metal fixing nut, which are designed to simplify installation. However, basic plumbing knowledge is recommended, and if unsure, professional installation is advised.

Can this tap be used with a hot water unvented system?

Yes, this tap is suitable for use with most domestic hot water systems, including unvented systems, provided the minimum working pressure of 0.3 bar is met.

How do I clean the chrome finish to keep it looking new?

Clean the tap regularly with a soft, damp cloth and mild, non-abrasive detergent. Rinse well and dry with a clean cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents.

What does WRAS-approved mean?

WRAS (Water Regulations Advisory Scheme) approval means the product has been tested and meets the high standards set by UK water regulations regarding water quality, safety, and preventing waste or contamination.

Troubleshooting

Tap is leaking from the spout

The ceramic cartridge may be worn or require tightening. Check the tightness of the cartridge retaining nut. If the leak persists, the cartridge may need replacing.

Low water flow from the spout

Check the aerator at the end of the spout for blockages (e.g., limescale or debris). Unscrew the aerator, clean it, and screw it back in. Ensure the flexible tails are not kinked.

Tap is difficult to operate (stiff lever)

The ceramic cartridge may need lubrication or replacement. If the tap is new, ensure all installation components are correctly seated. For existing installations, consult a plumber.

No hot or cold water

Verify that the main water supply is on and that the isolation valves under the basin are open. Check that the flexible tails are correctly connected to the hot and cold supply lines.
