Aftercare

Cleaning the cartridge
Before carrying out any maintenance, turn off the mains water supply. If you are
unsure contact a qualified plumber.
Remove the lever, grub screw, handle and
cover.
Remove the retaining nut using a suitable
spanner, pull the cartridge from the mixer body,
clean thoroughly under cold water to remove any build
up of limescale or debris.
If necessary replace the cartridge.
Replace the cartridge into the body, tighten the valve
using a suitable spanner.
Replace retaining nut, cover and handle, tighten the grub
screw and re-fit lever to handle.
General cleaning
Whilst modern plating techniques are used in the manufacture of these fittings, the
plating will wear if not cleaned properly. The safest way to clean your product is
to wipe with a soft damp cloth. Stains can be removed using washing up liquid.
All cleaning powders and liquids will damage the surface of your fitting even the
non-scratch cleaners.
