Anti-Friction seals
Call Customer Services for replacement seals
Water

taps
This is normal for a short time after using the taps.
This is caused by residual water tension,
the build up of water in the tap body.
If water continues to drip,
possibly due to the ceramic disc valves/cartridge
Remove valves/cartridge and clean, refer to
'Maintenance' section before starting any
maintenance.
Taps do not
turn on
Closed isolation valve.

Pressure
Changes
Site water pressure is too high for the working
pressures listed on the specification.
Install a Pressure Reducing Valve in order to
achieve working levels of pressure.
Your fitting has a high quality finish and should be treated with care to preserve the visible surfaces.
All surfaces will wear if not cleaned correctly, the only safe way to clean your mixer tap is to wipe with a
soft damp cloth. Stains can be removed using washing up liquid. All bath cleaning powders and liquids
will damage the surface of your fitting, even the non-scratch cleaners.
