Please use this space for any notes
you or your installer may have
regarding the installation/plumbing
of this product.
Bristan products are made from premium
materials, with hand polishing and
electroplated finishes.
Your taps or shower should be regularly
cleaned with warm water, a mild pH-neutral
liquid soap, and polished with a soft cloth.
Any residues from soap, toothpaste,
shampoos and shower gels can cause
blemishes if not rinsed off straight after use.
Household bleaches and cleaners contain
harsh chemicals and may damage the surface
finish. Avoid using abrasive cloths, scouring
pads, scrub sponges, steel wool
or anything similar.
Some surfaces such as nickel and pewter
may be affected by the dye found in some
cloths, so it is also important to avoid
hanging cloths on spouts.
