IMEX Arco basin mixer in Chrome with universal waste

The Arco basin mixer in Chrome with universal waste (XCBAS) is a quality basin tap from IMEX's Arco collection, complete with a universal waste fitting - everything you need in one box.

About Basin Mixer Taps

A mono basin mixer combines hot and cold supply through a single spout, controlled by one lever. Modern IMEX mixers use ceramic disc cartridges that don't drip after years of use - far better than the rubber washers in older twin-handle taps. Check your basin has 1 tap hole, and confirm your water pressure (low-pressure systems may need taps suitable for 0.1bar+).

Installation Notes

Mono basin mixers fit through a single tap hole in the basin (most IMEX basins are pre-drilled for this). Connect hot and cold via the supplied flexi tails to 15mm or 22mm pipework. Universal waste fitting included in the box - everything needed for a single-tap install.

Care & Maintenance

Clean your tap with a damp soft cloth and a mild detergent - no scouring pads, no bleach, no acidic cleaners (these can pit the finish). Hard-water areas may see limescale build-up; a 1:5 vinegar-water solution dissolves it without damaging plated finishes. Wipe dry after cleaning to prevent watermarks.
