What water pressure does it need?

The DUSC Core Side Lever Basin Mixer Tap operates from a minimum of just 0.5 bar, so it suits the majority of UK homes — including combi-boiler and mains-pressure systems, plus most gravity-fed setups. Maximum operating pressure is 5 bar. If your gravity system runs below 0.5 bar, a shower/whole-house pump will give the best performance.

Is the DUSC Core Side Lever Basin Mixer Tap WRAS approved?

Yes. This DUSC Core tap is WRAS-approved, meaning it meets the UK Water Regulations Advisory Scheme standards for material safety and performance with drinking water — your assurance it is safe to install on a UK mains supply.

Styling with Chrome

Chrome is the most versatile finish in any bathroom. Its bright, reflective surface suits everything from classic and traditional schemes to sleek modern spaces, and it coordinates effortlessly with white sanitaryware, chrome accessories and virtually any tile. A safe, enduring choice that never dates.

Installation

Fits a standard tap hole and connects via the supplied flexible tails to your hot and cold supplies. Straightforward for a competent DIYer, though we always recommend a qualified plumber for a clean, leak-free installation.

✔ Genuine DUSC Core Brassware — supplied direct by PlumbXtra. This is the authentic DUSC Core range, finished in premium PVD/electroplated coatings and covered by a lifetime manufacturer's guarantee. Expert UK support and fast delivery as standard.
