All working parts and valves are guaranteed for a period of FIVE years from purchase. Decorative surface finishes and O-rings are guaranteed for ONE year from the date of purchase provided that our advice concerning care has been observed. This guarantee is valid providing that the mixer tap has been used for normal domestic purposes in the UK and that the care, installation and maintenance instructions have been observed. The warranty extends to the original purchaser only. You should retain a copy of your dated invoice as proof of purchase to validate any claims under this guarantee.

A solution of warm water and a mild liquid detergent may be used where necessary, and then the fitting rinsed thoroughly and wiped dry. Any other cleaning action will invalidate your warranty. If the tap has a diffuser it should be cleaned periodically.

Abrasive cleaners, scouring cleaners and acidic cleaners must not be used under any circumstances.

CDA taps are either WRAS approved or manufactured in accordance with recognised European standards. Please ensure that your Kitchen mixer is fitted in accordance with Local Water Byelaws.

These installation guidelines have been prepared for your direction and you must exercise due care at all times. We do not accept responsibility for problems that may occur through improper installation. Whilst assembling the tap take care not to accidentally loosen any screwed assemblies.

Installation Preparation:

Before installing the new mixer it is essential that you thoroughly flush through the supply pipes in order to remove any remaining solder, swarf or impurities from your system. Failure to carry out this simple procedure could cause problems or damage to the workings of the mixertap.

We strongly recommend installing particle filter strainers and isolation valves to both the hot and cold feed pipes in an accessible position. This will help to prevent premature failure of the valves and ease any future maintenance.

All parts should be removed from their packaging and inspected for any transport damage prior to installation.

Shut off your water heating system and ensure that your mains stopcock is closed. Open the lowest hot and cold taps in the house and allow the water to run until the cold-water storage tank and pipes are fully empty. Please note, the hot water storage cylinder (if applicable) will always remain full.

This mixertap requires a 35mm∅ tap hole, if replacing an existing tap, remove the tap & clean the end of the feed pipes using wire wool the tap hole area should be free from dirt and sealant.

Loosely position the tap and tail pipes to check if any alteration to the existing pipework is required, if this is the case do this now.

Installation:

1. Screw in the studded rod (D) into the base of the tap (A).
2. Place the base plinth (B) then upper seal (C) onto the base of the tap (A).
3. Screw the hot & cold water tail pipes (H) into the base of the tap.
4. Place the mixertap (A) onto the sink or worktop, pass the tail pipes (H) and studded rod (D) through the taphole.
5. Pass the rubber and then metal horseshoe (E&F) over the studded rod (D) and around the tail pipes.

After installation:

Once you have visually checked the new fittings and connections, ensure that all taps are closed except the new mixer tap, which should be left open. Turn on the water supply at the mains stop cock. As the system starts to refill, check carefully for leaks. Once you are fully satisfied that there are no leaks, turn on the water heating.

Clean the tap to remove any marks created during installation as instructed then replace the bag that has been provided to protect the tap until it is ready for use.
