Product Information
Full details
This Rea Gold Low Bathroom Faucet is designed for homeowners and renovators seeking a stylish and durable addition to their washbasin or countertop. Its primary benefit is the combination of aesthetic appeal with robust, easy-to-clean brass construction. A potential caveat is the 50 cm included hose length, which may require extension for some installations. Key features include a ceramic Sedal head, electroplating technology for a lasting finish, and an integrated aerator for water efficiency.

FAQs
What material is the faucet made of?

What type of valve does this faucet use?
It uses a ceramic Sedal head, which is a type of ceramic disc cartridge.
Can this faucet be installed on a countertop?
Yes, it is designed for mounting on either a washbasin or a countertop.
How long is the warranty period?
The faucet comes with a 5-year warranty.
What is the purpose of the aerator?
The aerator mixes air with water, providing a steady flow while reducing water consumption and splashing.
Is the 50 cm hose sufficient for all installations?
The 50 cm hose is included, but for installations where the water supply valves are further away, you may need to purchase extension hoses.
How should I clean the gold finish?
Clean with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid abrasive cleaners to preserve the finish.
Troubleshooting
Faucet is dripping after shut-off
The ceramic Sedal cartridge may need to be tightened or replaced. Ensure the water supply is off before attempting any internal adjustments.
Low water flow from the spout
Check if the aerator is clogged. Unscrew the aerator tip and clean any debris. Ensure the included hoses are not kinked.
Inconsistent water temperature control
Verify that the hot and cold water supply lines are correctly connected to the faucet. Check for any blockages in the supply lines.
Leaks from the base of the faucet
Ensure the mounting hardware is securely tightened. Check the condition of any seals or gaskets at the base.
