Frequently Asked Questions - TM1CH CDA

How do I install the CDA TM1CH faucet?

Installation should be performed by a qualified plumber. Ensure the countertop hole is 35 mm. Connect the flexible hoses to ½-inch supply lines. Tighten the mounting nut and secure the faucet. Turn on water and check for leaks.

What do I do if the faucet leaks?

A leaking faucet often indicates a worn cartridge. First, turn off the water supply under the sink. Remove the handle and unscrew the retaining nut. Replace the ceramic disc cartridge with a CDA-approved spare part. Reassemble and test.

How do I clean the faucet without damaging the finish?

Use a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, or harsh chemicals like bleach, which can dull the chrome finish. Rinse and dry thoroughly.

Can I use the TM1CH faucet with a high-pressure water system?

Yes, the faucet is designed for standard household water pressure up to 5 bar. If pressure exceeds 5 bar, install a pressure reducer to prevent damage.

What spare parts are available for this faucet?

Common spare parts include the ceramic cartridge, aerator, handle lever, and mounting hardware. Contact CDA customer service or an authorized dealer to order genuine parts.

How do I replace the aerator?

Unscrew the aerator from the spout tip by hand or with a small wrench. Clean or replace the screen. Reinstall by hand-tightening. Use a cloth to protect the finish when using tools.

Does the faucet come with a warranty?

CDA typically offers a limited warranty of 5 years on finish and 2 years on internal components. Check your product documentation or contact CDA for specific terms.

What is the recommended water temperature range?

The faucet can handle hot water up to 80°C. For everyday use, avoid exceeding 60°C to prevent scalding and reduce risk of damage to the cartridge.

How do I remove mineral deposits from the faucet?

Soak a cloth in a mixture of equal parts water and white vinegar, wrap it around the affected area for a few minutes, then wipe clean. Rinse thoroughly. Do not use vinegar on the nickel finish if applicable.

Can I use the faucet with a pull-out spray?

The TM1CH model does not include a pull-out spray. It is a standard fixed-spout faucet with a swivel function. For a spray function, consider CDA models with that feature.
