Understanding Ceramic Disc Cartridge Technology
The Cheviot Lever Handles Bathtub Filler relies on ceramic disc cartridges within its dual-handle design to regulate water flow. Think of these internal ceramic discs like two tightly polished sliding plates that create a watertight seal when aligned or blocked. Because ceramic is exceptionally hard and resistant to mineral buildup, these discs eliminate the friction and rubber washer degradation common in older faucet styles, ensuring smooth handle rotation and consistent drip-free performance over years of daily use.
Installation Guide
Ensure your bathtub rim features the required 7-inch faucet hole drillings prior to beginning installation.
Securely mount the deck installation base to the tub rim using appropriate plumbing sealants and connections.
Connect hot and off water supply lines to the designated inlets, checking for proper alignment and tightness.
Test the ceramic disc lever handles and integrated diverter to verify smooth water flow and hand shower operation.
Care & Maintenance
Wipe Down Regularly Clean the exterior brass surfaces with a soft, damp cloth after each use to prevent water spot buildup.
Avoid Harsh Cleaners Never use abrasive scouring powders, steel wool, or harsh chemical solvents that can damage the finish.
Protect Porcelain Accents Clean porcelain handle inserts gently with mild soap and water to preserve their glossy appearance.
Clear Mineral Deposits Soak the hand shower nozzle periodically in a mild vinegar solution if mineral scaling affects the spray pattern.
Inspect Connections Check under the tub rim periodically to ensure supply line connections remain secure and leak-free.
