Before Ordering

Check the tap model and compare the existing cartridge, including its joystick connection and base layout. The 25mm diameter alone does not establish fitment. Simply U wall-mounted basin mixers A4482AA, A4483AA, A4489AA and A4490AA use A962105NU instead.

Installation Note

Isolate the hot and cold water supplies before dismantling the tap. Check the handle, retaining screw and glide ring for damage while the control assembly is apart. Refit the cartridge in the correct orientation, then check that the tap operates correctly and inspect for leaks after restoring the water supplies.
