Frequently Asked Questions
What is a tall basin mixer tap?
A tall basin mixer tap has an elevated spout height for countertop and vessel basins which sit above the worktop surface — a standard-height tap would not provide enough clearance for comfortable hand washing.
How do I know if I need a tall or standard basin mixer?
If your basin is a countertop or vessel basin (sitting on top of the worktop), you need a tall tap. If your basin is a standard inset basin, see the Abode Kite Traditional Basin Mixer. Call us on 01603 381095 if you're unsure.
What is the minimum water pressure required?
Minimum 1.0 bar. Not suitable for gravity-fed or low-pressure systems. Call us on 01603 381095 if you're unsure about your water pressure.
Is this tap suitable for a combi boiler?
Yes — compatible with combination boilers and mains pressure systems at 1.0 bar minimum.
Can I order if the item shows as out of stock?
Yes — we can fulfil this product even when stock shows as zero. Place your order as normal and we'll confirm lead time, or call us on 01603 381095 or email customerservice@bubblegumbathrooms.co.uk.
