General Information
Prior to installation, please ensure that your
plumbing system is adequate and that all pipes
have been sufficiently flushed out. The main
cold water supply must be turned off, the mains
stopcock is usually found where the supply en-
ters the building. It is also recommended that
any hot water heating systems are turned off at
this stage. The water system should then be
fully drained.
Please keep these instructions for future refer-
ence.
Prior to installation, please check that your plumbing
system is adequate.

Plumbing Systems and Water Pressure
All products are suitable for all UK Water Au-
thority supply pressures.
If the taps are installed at low pressure (tank
fed) then the minimum height from the outlet
of the nozzle to the underside of the cold tank
should be 2.0 metres to ensure adequate per-
formance.
PLEASE NOTE: These taps should be installed
in accordance with the current Water Regula-
tions.
Any claims that may arise will be dealt
with on the basis that isolating valves are
fitted.
PLEASE NOTE: To comply with water regula-
tions, isolating valves should be fitted in the
pipe work beneath the tap. This enables each
supply to be independently isolated which
makes it easier to service and/or remove the
tap.
To install, position the tap ensuring that the back nut
washer is between the fixing nut and the bath/basin,
and then tighten the fixing nut. DO NOT OVER
TIGHTEN.
Connection to the water supply is usually achieved
using existing pipe work and connections, although
flexible tap connectors can be used if needed. (15mm
for basin, 22mm for bath).
Once all the connections are made, the mains cold
water supply can be turned back on and the system
refilled. Now check for any leaks. At this stage it is
recommended that the whole system be flushed to
remove any foreign matter, also check the seating is
free from swarf, as this will interfere with the water
seal between the valve and the seating.
All water heating systems may now be turned
on. If the bath taps are being fitted to a steel bath
top hat washers (not supplied) may be required to
install the inlet legs correctly.
