There are good reasons for using mixer taps made of stainless steel that come into contact with drinking water: Stainless steel contains no harmful substances for our health, and stainless steel is an exceptionally strong material with a very long lifespan. Stainless steel is the best material on the market for taps. It is one of the most advanced production processes, using a material with a melting point of 1700 degrees Celsius. These mixer taps ensure that you use pure water daily. The production process of stainless steel taps is much more complicated than that of traditional brass mixer taps, requiring high technological knowledge to achieve this. The result is therefore astounding! Apart from their durability, environmentally conscious choice, and high quality, these mixer taps are simply BEAUTIFUL! Stainless steel is lead-free and helps protect health. Stainless steel is also fully recyclable... This line of mixer taps is made of AISI-304 Stainless Steel. This consists of 18% chromium and 8% nickel. This alloy is non-magnetic and non-hardenable in an annealed state, and weakly magnetic when cold-formed. Less susceptible to the precipitation of chromium carbides during welding.

Setting up a water softener:

Naturally, everyone wants their taps to stay beautifully new and clean.
Therefore, it is important to know how to best set up your water softener so that your tap remains beautiful for the longest time.

Most water softener models have a knob that allows you to quickly and easily set the residual hardness of the water. It is important not to set the water softener too high, as this can have harmful consequences, such as increasing the chance of limescale.
Also, do not set your water softener lower than 4 dH. If you set it lower, more salt will be released for flushing the water softener, and you increase the risk of damage.

Check the above points on your water softener in the meter cupboard and reduce the chance of damage.
