Can this be used with threaded taps?

No, this connector is specifically designed for round or oval outlets without threading, such as classic outdoor tap connectors.

Is it safe to leave this connector outside in winter?

Yes, the connector is made from frost-resistant materials, making it suitable for outdoor use in colder temperatures.

What materials is the connector made from?

It is constructed from ABS, PP, and rubber plastic for durability and resilience.

How do I ensure a waterproof connection?

Yes, it is suitable for indoor watering applications, including kitchen and bathroom faucets.

What is the main benefit of this connector?

Its main benefit is providing a simple, secure, and waterproof way to connect hoses to taps that do not have standard threading.

Troubleshooting

Connector leaks water

Ensure the rubber seal is clean and properly seated around the tap. Check that the tap is round or oval and fits the connector's dimensions. Try pushing the connector more firmly onto the tap.

Hose won't attach securely

This connector is for attaching to the tap, not for securing a hose onto itself. Ensure your hose has a compatible fitting for the output nozzle of the connector.

Connector is difficult to fit

The connector is designed for taps without threading. If your tap has threading or is an unusual shape, this connector may not be compatible. Ensure the tap is round or oval and check the opening dimensions.

Connector seems loose

The rubber seal needs to create a tight grip. Make sure the tap surface is clean and dry, and that the tap shape and size are within the compatible range for the connector.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: To set up the mixer tap connector, simply slide the rubber seal over the end of your tap. Ensure the tap is round or oval and lacks threading. Press the connector firmly onto the tap until the rubber seal creates a snug fit. Then, attach your hose to the output nozzle.

Compatibility: This connector is designed to fit most standard UK taps that are round or oval and have an opening of approximately 2.8cm width and 3.2cm height. It is ideal for taps without threading. Always check the dimensions against your specific tap before purchase if unsure.

Care: Clean the connector periodically with a damp cloth to remove any dirt or debris. Ensure the rubber seal remains clean and free from obstructions for optimal performance. Store in a dry place when not in use to prolong its lifespan. The materials are frost-resistant, but extreme prolonged exposure to harsh elements is not recommended.
