General Cleaning

Bristan products are made from premium materials, with hand polishing and electroplated finishes.
Your taps or shower should be regularly cleaned with warm water, a mild pH- neutral liquid soap, and polished with a soft cloth.
Any residues from soap, toothpaste, shampoos, and shower gels can cause blemishes if not rinsed off straight after use. Household bleaches and cleaners contain harsh chemicals and may damage the surface finish. Avoid using abrasive cloths, scouring pads, scrub sponges, steel wool, or anything similar.
Some surfaces such as nickel and pewter may be affected by the dye found in some cloths, so it is also important to avoid hanging cloths on spouts.

Maintenance – Valve Cleaning

Unscrew the handle washer to remove the handles.
