FAQs

What material is the tap made from?

The tap is constructed from lead-free solid brass, ensuring durability and resistance to corrosion.

How durable is the finish?

It features a multi-layer chrome and nickel finish designed to be resistant to peeling and abrasion, providing a long-lasting, mirror-like appearance.

How many times has the ceramic disc cartridge been tested?

The ceramic disc cartridge has been tested for 500,000 cycles, ensuring a drip-free and leak-free experience.

Is this a tap and shower set, or just a tap?

This is a combined bath tap with an integrated shower function, all in a single monobloc unit.

Can I install this myself?

While the monobloc design simplifies installation, professional fitting by a qualified plumber is recommended to ensure proper function and prevent leaks.

How should I clean the tap to maintain its finish?

Wipe regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or chemicals that can damage the plating.

What kind of water pressure is recommended?

Adequate water pressure is recommended for optimal performance, especially for the shower function. Check with your plumber for your home's specific pressure.

Troubleshooting

Tap is dripping

The ceramic disc cartridge may have debris. Turn off the water supply, remove the cartridge, clean it gently, and reassemble. If the issue persists, the cartridge may need replacement.

Low water flow from shower head

Check the shower head for blockages caused by limescale. Unscrew the shower head and soak it in a vinegar solution, then clean with a soft brush. Ensure water supply valves are fully open.

Finish is discolored or peeling

This usually indicates exposure to harsh chemicals. Clean only with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. If the finish is significantly damaged, it may require professional refinishing or replacement.

Tap is loose on the sink/bath

Check and tighten the mounting nuts or screws underneath the sink or bath. Ensure the seal is intact to prevent water ingress.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Installation typically involves connecting the tap to your existing hot and cold water supply lines. Ensure all connections are secure to prevent leaks. The monobloc design simplifies the process compared to separate fixtures. Professional installation by a qualified plumber is recommended to ensure correct fitting and compliance with local regulations.

Compatibility: This tap is designed for standard UK plumbing systems. Ensure your water pressure is sufficient for optimal performance, particularly for the shower function. It is compatible with standard bath setups.

Care: To maintain the mirror-like finish, wipe the tap regularly with a soft, damp cloth.

For stubborn spots, use a mild soap solution and rinse thoroughly with clean water, then dry with a soft cloth.
