Just a poor quality tap
Sadly after owning this tap for over 2 years, the aerator has disintegrated and the tap from day dot has just fired water in any direction other than straight into the sink.
I really do wish I had never bought this tap. Due to its abnormal outlet size, a replacement aerator is just not available.
But that’s not all. Bearing in mind the primary function of this tap is to heat water in demand.... we’ll HA! That’s something else this won’t do! Shutting the flow to the tap to almost a trickle is the only way to actually get this tap to produce anything that may actually resemble warm water. But by doing this, it takes so long to fill the sink, that by the time it has, the waters gone cold again.
2 years of not really Being able to use the tap As it’s given function has really been a good 2 years of my life. Thank you Strom. A big thumbs up to you!

Do not buy this product
We have a training centre with no inlet for hot water so decided to fit this tap so people could get hot water for washing up and washing hands.
We had this professionally fitted so we knew it was done properly and what a waste of money it was. This tap doesn’t even get lukewarm and is literally not so far off of being cold water still.
Very disappointed and not happy that screwfix still endorse sales of this product when it clearly doesn’t do want it says.

Does not heat water up enough for washing up even on reduced flow.After 2 months the hot/cold switch on the side became very loose,i removed the tap and returned it to my local srewfix shop who said they could not return it for warranty as it had been supplied directly by their supplier.The supplier contacted me but were most unhelpfull and basically told me to fix it myself and were not even prepared to pay postage to return it for warranty.I am not impressed by the product or customer service and would not recommend this product.

Not working from new
Bought by my landlord's builder on my request, it has not worked from day one despite being installed as described in technical data sheet. Spent all winter washing dishes with cold water. Hardly reliable this manufacturer furthermore as the product had the QC.

Spares for this tap
Where can I buy a new aerator for this tap. The one that came with it has disintegrated so water just goes everywhere. Most frustrating!
(Aerator as in the part that separates the water etc on the actual outlet part, spout maybe?)

Is this tap for use as a kettle replacement? So that we may use it to make cups of tea etc?
Asked by: Jayboy2001
No you would not use this tap as a kettle substitute, neither water temp or flow would be sufficient for the purpose.

Replacing seals
Should have had it swapped in warranty as it didn't last 6month before leaking but now at 18month old is leaking heavily from the top seal so can seals be replaced whilst tap is in situ as my plumber has no idea?

Difference in models
Hi what is the difference between the 2 models please? Is it just appearance? Thanks
Asked by: Wigley
Hi. Thank you for taking an interest in our product. There aren't many differences between the two products, apart from the Tap Pro has a stainless steel head where as the Tap Contract has a high strength metal look ABS head, also the Tap Pro is 15 mm longer in height, it is also 10 mm wider and 5 mm longer in depth. The Tap Pro is slightly heavier than the Tap Contract.
Thank you
