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,
toiletries etc. should be 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.
Alternative Installation for Surfaces Out of Tolerance/Extra Stability
Turn the hexagonal key anti-clockwise to remove the back nut from the EasyFit Base.
Feed the base through the sink hole from the top.| Feed the Reinforcing Plate, (if required) and Back nut up to the underside of the sink.
Turn the hexagonal key clockwise to secure the EasyFit Base.
