Mixer Tap, Single Lever, U-Spout, Abode Althia

Product Details

Is the Abode AT1269 Brushed Graphite mixer tap suitable for UK plumbing systems

Yes. This model is WRAS approved, making it suitable for use with typical UK potable water installations. It is also designed to operate within a normal range of 0.75 to 5.5 bar water pressure, so it should work well in most homes.

Will the spout reach and height work for my sink setup

The tap has a spout exit reach of 196 mm and a spout exit height of 247 mm. Combined with its overall height of 321 mm, these measurements are helpful when checking clearance around bowls and between the tap and sink drainer areas.

How much can the tap rotate for easier use and cleaning

The mixer tap includes a 360 degree swivelling range. This allows the outlet to move for rinsing different parts of the sink and can make everyday cleaning more convenient.

What control style does it use and is it smooth to operate

The AT1269 uses quarter turn ceramic disc control. Ceramic disc technology is commonly chosen for reliable operation, with a smooth feel and precise on off control.

What is included in the box when I install this tap

It is supplied with the essential fitting items, including flexible hoses and tails. Having these included helps you complete installation without needing to source compatible pipework separately.

What colour finish is the Abode AT1269 and how does it look in the kitchen

AT1269 is finished in Brushed Graphite. This is a modern, muted tone that pairs well with many kitchen styles and is an attractive choice when you want a darker, contemporary look.
