PRE INSTALLATION CHECKS

• Always seek advice from a qualified installer to ensure your installation and water supply to your taps comply with the water regulation (WRAS) requirements and good plumbing practice.

• It is good practice to ensure that both hot and cold water supplies to your tap are of an equal pressure to provide a consistent flow. If supplies are not of equal pressure then a non return valve should be fitted on the hot inlet.

• Supplies of water should be from a common source (mains or tank fed).
• We recommend that a service valve is installed in the supply lines to the tap to enable water isolation if required.

POST INSTALLATION POINTS

• We suggest when connecting screw connections that PTFE tape is used before the joints are fully tightened.
• Before use correctly check the installation for leaks, and turn the hot and cold water on to thoroughly flush any small particles that may have been dislodged during the tap installation.
