Dirty water from tap seal


Recommended Posts

Posted

A few months ago I bought from and had fitted by homepro 2 bathroom taps.

 

No matter how much I clean them a few days later brown dirty water seems to ooze from the base of the taps.

It happens with both identical taps in 2 bathrooms.

 

Any ideas why?

Looks to me the Water Hoses to the Tabs are not correct fitted and leaking and may course internal corrosion already.

If the number provided is correct, the faucet is a 1/2 inch cold feed only.

 

Its possible the installer has used a mild steel washer below the faucet base. 

 

A washer is often added when fitting single 1/2 inch faucets into a hole big enough to fit a dual feed hot/cold faucet.
