Cold Tap
Installation Guide
IMPORTANT!
Please read the
instructions carefully before installation.
All pipe work must be thoroughly flushed
prior to installation
– failure to do this will
result in foreign materials blocking the flow
regulating device and reduce the flow.
Do not conduct hydrostatic test once the tap
has been fitted
– doing this will cause
damage to the ceramic cartridge.
Isolating stop valve is recommended to be
fitted to water supply connection for ease of
maintenance.

hoses have been properly fitted and checked for water
tightness at the factory. However
they may become
loose during transportation or handling.)
