used.
Flow limiters
On Twyford’s Basin & Bidet Mixer, the flow restrictor is incorporated into the flow
Straightener in the spout.

Using a suitable spanner carefully unscrew the flow straightener from the tap spout.
Refitting
Make sure the rubber washer is positioned in between the spout and the flow straightener,
carefully screw in the flow straightener into the tap spout and when hand tightened, very
carefully nip up the flow straightener using a suitable spanner. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN.

Maintenance
General Cleaning
Your fitting has a high quality finish and should be treated with care to preserve the visible surfaces.
All finishes will degrade if not cleaned correctly. The only safe way to clean your product is to wipe
with a soft damp cloth. Stains can be removed using washing up liquid.
All bathroom cleaning products (powders and liquids) will damage the surface of your fitting, even the
non-scratch cleaners.
Note: Never use abrasive detergents or disinfectants or those containing alcohol, hydrochloric acid
or phosphoric acid.
We advise that your fitting is regularly serviced in hard water areas to
maintain optimum performance.
If your fitting begins to leak the following should be carried out;
1. Isolate both hot and cold water supplies to the tap by either:
a) Turning the water supply off at the mains stopcock
b) Turning off the isolation valves to the tap.
2. Remove the handle by removing indice and grub screw.
3. Using a suitable spanner remove the valve from the tap body.
4. Clean the valve and the seating inside the tap body.
5. If necessary replace the valve.
6. Replace the valve into the tap body and tighten fully using a
suitable spanner.
7. Replace handle assembly.
8. Turn on water supply, purge all air and check for leaks.
9. Contact our helpline should if problem persists.
