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.

Troubleshooting|
---|---
Symptom| Cause| Remedy
No flow or low flow rate| Partially closed isolation valve.| Open isolation
valve.
Instantaneous water heater cycles on and off as flow rate or pressure is too
low.| Increase water flow rate or pressure through system.

for minimum distance required.
Hot or cold water being drawn off elsewhere causing pressure changes or
instantaneous boiler temperature changes.| Do not use other water outlets when
using the taps.
Airlock or partial blockage in the supply pipework.| Flush through pipework to
ensure removal of debris and any airlocks.
Water dripping from taps| This is normal for a short time after using the
taps.| This is caused by residual water tension, the build up of water in the
tap body.
If water continues to drip, possibly due to the ceramic disc valves| Remove
valves and clean, refer to ‘Maintenance’ section before starting any
maintenance.
