KITCHEN MIXER TAP ISSUE..... One of THE WORST designed TAPS I've worked on

[@sunkat76]

Very helpful video. 3 years ago I actually chose a Pegler Jeroni swan neck single lever. Well Friday night the whole swan neck has completely come off. We had to wind it back on several times a week for the last 3months. Now the spout doesn;t even screw back on - it's too loose when I try and put it back on to the base of the tap. Do i need to poke an O ring inside the thread of the spout? Any ideas how to fix this please? Just until this Bank Holiday is over and I can get a plumber out. We are kitchen sink tapless! I really though Pegler were the Rolls Royce of taps??? Is nothing made to last anymore? Thanks for the video.

As said in the video, this is going in for a few months as the whole lot is coming out. I wouldn’t fit another easyfit for one of my customers I would advice a more safe fitting tap as these are renown for blowing off and flooding houses. As for being the best brand……. I wish you well👍🏼👍🏼

I honestly highly rate Bristan taps along with the ease fit. Ive been doing site work for the last 3 years probably fitted close to 200+ only had an issue with one, and that was a split in in the double check iso. But Guess it what you get used to. Also the tapex kit is amazing great tool.

[@julianphelps3852]

Have to agree Tom Walker; once you get use to the design & the way it works with how to fix tap top onto base, you'll never want to fit those fiddley tiny nut types again or the really bad large nut types with hoses through OR the spin type that then have 2 small screws to tighten up!! Only reason Easifit come away is fitter doesnt understand how the allen key grubs work.

With you mate. Can't beat the gear for the money. Fitted tons of their bar mixers, even got three in my own house for the last thirteen years.

Has anyone found that the latest Bristan easy fit taps come away from the grub screw fixings? I have seen a couple of you tube clips of Hamish of Exeter. But guessing the tap issues have been ironed out since 2016, when he made the video warning others about the flaw! I have just fitted a Bristan echo for a friend on Friday, then seen the 2016 video clip afterwards! I have tightened the 2 grub screws so hope it will hold on the easy fit housing properly. Any ideas from you lot? Cheers

You poor man, Bristan has really upset you!!! I have used Easy fit and rate the product, no problems fitting and straight swap with any other Easy if tap. Not had any issues with warranty claims, next day delivery, what more could you ask. I agree with you regarding Aqualisa comments, excellent service. Stay cool, keep up with the channel, great job mate.

[@MJTiffPlumbing]

Indeed they are easy fit to replace…. IF the customer knows they have an easyfit tap and tells you this when you get the call for the job. If not you will purchase a tap to swap and then end up removing the easy fit system all together, same applies if the customer supplies there own tap and does not know they have an easyfit installed….. and 2 tiny grub screws to secure a mains fed tap!!!…. No thanks. Each to there own but they are not a product I would want to put my name to. However Aqualisa as you know are great…👍🏼👍🏼 Glad you like the channel and thanks for the comment, love hearing others views etc 👌🏼

Only easy fits I’ve seen pop off are from people I know didn’t locate the grub screws correctly. Fitted loads never had an issue They’re a decent price and everything in the box 2 grub screws off and new taps on with 2 grub screws easiest swap you’ll ever have

[@MJTiffPlumbing]

So you have seen them pop off as…. seems it happens a lot. Problem you have is when someone rings up to change there kitchen tap so you get another one off the shelf or the home owner supplies a new one, chances are they don’t know they have an easyfit one so but a normal tap…. Then they have paid there money for a new tap and want it swapping.

I've checked all the ones I fitted after one blew off. The earliest designs had come loose while the better later 2 designs were still tight. I still wouldn't use them again though, as I could see on the blown off one, how the grub screw had torn right through the brass. Maybe Customer had swung on the tap. As we all know, you've got to make stuff idiot proof........ Like top-cleaning shower/bath traps..... there's always somebody will manage to unscrew it if you don't silicone it in........

I've fitted a lot of Aqualisa digital showers: I have one in my bathroom. I've been to their factory and I'm a registered installer. Their customer service is good 👍🏻. But I do sometimes question the quality of their digital range. I've had control units misfuntion or parts breaking off very shortly after completion. I've also fitted Mira digital showers and their gravity pumped unit is a lot quiter than Aqualisa.

[@MJTiffPlumbing]

Yer Aqualisa service is spot on… great company

[@actorlyric]

Bristan have an issue with that model ( echo) I've fitted 3 sets of cartridges to it within 2 years of fitting it. Bristan admitted the company which supplies the carts ti them were inferior, so now they have totally different carts & heads . Like you I went to town on them about the so called easi fit ! & the customer service agent agreed. Especially when i commented about having to fit the white thrust plate as well on them, as it then doesn't become an easi fit!! I have fitted loads of these taps & have not had any issues in fitting them or blowing off . Bristan now offer 10years parts warranty on all thier products thats pretty good. Cooke & Lewis what you fitted from my understanding is 12 months on the carts but 5yrs on yhe finish !! What I tend to fit now are Franke taps great customer care & straightforward install with the 1 post install. Check out the Franke Athena as it gives good flow on LP & comes with M12 tails as opposed to M10 which are rubbish on LP so I always ask the customer what their plumbing system is so I know im not going to get poor flow. As for Roca donut seals they're quite difficult to get hold of off the shelf as they're a specific design and you can't use any other donut on them. I try to carry a couple on the truck for situations such as what you had to do. You don't have to fit Roca fill valve & flush valve as ling as you have a new Roca donut seal , any 2" flushvalve such siamp viva etc will work a treat. Roca flush valves aren't cheap close to 40 quid & 20 quid for the button. Viva are about 15quid !! Worth baring in mind for the future 👌

[@MJTiffPlumbing]

Don’t believe any warranty that Bristan “say” they have….. I’ve done a video on this exact thing… The “2 year parts and Labour warranty” advertised on the from of the showers is not a “2 year parts and Labour warranty” As said in the video, this tap set I’ve fitted is a quick fix as it’s all coming out soon

Worst taps ever, Bristan have changed the original grubscrew design twice because they well know theres a problem, but you'll never get them to admit it. The 1st design is apparently the worst, I have had one blow the tap off, fortunately customer could turn water off immediately. The grub screw had literally tore through the brass, maybe customer had been swinging on the tap but even so that shouldnt happen. I ended up going back to every Easifit I'd ever fitted and checking the grub screws. They had come slightly loose on the 1st designs, I threadlocked them back in. Will never use Bristan again. Their showers are also sh1t, and dont even get me started on the bath shower mixer diverters. Great video Tiffybobs.

Na I think I’d side with Tiff. What rhymes with fit? I’ve put a few in as well. It’s far from easy, unless of course you’ve got two elbows on one arm and it happens to be 6 ft long. You usually have to ask the customer to hold it in place. Try putting one of those on a butler sink and you’ll know all about it. However BS offer a generous 10 year guarantee and if you can be bothered to supply an image of the laser etching on the back of the tap they usually have no issue suppling spares. I also see a lot of Bristan taps dripping. Is that because they are popular. Or s@@t. I wouldn’t touch their electric showers with a barge pole. Bristan Joy. What a joy.

Bud, you need to sort the volume out on your channel. One minute I can’t hear you and the next my ears are nearly bleeding😮.

[@MJTiffPlumbing]

Over 7million views in 2 1/2 years and that’s the 1st time someone’s said that……… sounds like it’s your end mate

[@DylanCracknell]

Would you not disconnect the bottom connections first on a regular kitchen tap? Lol

[@MJTiffPlumbing]

Yes you would…. Lol Your missing the point, the Bristan “easyfit” is supposed to be easy to switch by turning the water off and swapping the tap unit, but this clearly shows you can’t just shut it off and remove it, you have to disconnect and drain the Pipework…. So it’s not as easy as they make out….. hence the whole point of what I’ve shown in the video

[@manchesterreds7853]

People moaning in the comments about these taps. Try get a replacement cartridge for a Franke or blanco They’re not a British standard size. Every thing else is ware and tear it keeps us in a job. Stop moaning

[@MJTiffPlumbing]
