To comply with UK water regulations, this
product shall be installed in accordance with the
following:
Inlet supply hoses shall be installed where light is
excluded.
Water supplies shall be at reasonably balanced
pressures from a common source (e.g. hot and
cold supplies both from the same storage or
both from a supply pipe). Where the tting is
supplied from unbalanced supplies (e.g. hot

less eective backow prevention device shall be
tted immediately upstream of both hot and cold
water inlets.
Pull-out taps warning AI text UK
This type of tap will not maintain an appropriate
tap gap,because part of the tap assembly (the
hose attachment) can fall below the spill over
level of the sink.Therefore it must not be directly
connected to the drinking water supply without
the protection of an appropriate backow
arrangement, as agreed by your local water
supplier.If the tap assembly is required to be
fed from storage, this tap may require a water
pressure higher than that provided by a normal
storage gravity fed system (e.g. typical gravity
fed system - 0.5 bar).If boosting/pumping of the
system is required advance notication to the
local water supplier may be required.The tap
assembly must only be supplied via a wholesome
source of water (hot and cold supplies).It is
important to ensure that this tap is connected in
accordance with the Water Supply (Water Fittings)
Regulations (Byelaws in Scotland).
