Aquaflo Series 2 Basin Taps (Pair)

Fitting instructions for the Aquaflo Series 2 Basin Taps (Pair)

Bath & Basin Taps

Prior to installation, please check that your plumbing system is adequate and that all pipes have been sufficiently flushed through.

1. Turn off mains water supply. The mains stopcock is usually found where the supply enters the building.
2. We also recommend that any water heating systems be turned off.
3. Drain the hot & cold water systems. To ensure complete drainage, open all taps.
4. To install, position the tap ensuring that the back nut washer is between the fixing nut and the bath/basin. DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN.
5. Connection to the water supply is usually achieved using existing pipe and work and connections. Although flexible tap connectors can be used if needed (15mm for basin, 22m for bath).

PLEASE NOTE:

To comply with water regulations, isolating valves should be fitted in the pipework beneath the tap. This enables each supply to be independently isolated which makes it easier to service or remove the tap.

6. Once all the connections are made, the mains 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 swart 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.
