Question 1

how to install it ? I bought the set try to fix it but it still leaking

Accepted Answer

For anybody reading this, there is a simple solution.  Some people suggest taping the taps 1st but that won't last if it does work.  The solution to this problem is to tighten the jubilee clips as much as you can and making sure the screws are in an easily and workeable position.  Run the shower for a minute or two then leave overnight.  The next day you will find that the rubber seals have settled and the jubilee clips have some more give in them.  Tighten the clips again and job done, no leaks.

Question 2

can you tell me how big it is from tap to tap

Accepted Answer

My bath is an old steel bath more than 30 years old, with round taps, which presumably was/is a standard width.  Measuring from the middle of each tap I make it a width of 7.25 ins (7 1/4).  There is some flexibility in fitting these because the rubber fittings are very thick and have some give in them.

Question 3

Would this fit on lever taps?

Accepted Answer

Dont buy this, its crap beyond belief, i went through 3 of them as the rubber seals kept bursting, i ended up just buying a mixer tap set and fitted them myself (which btw was a hell of allot easier to install) dont waste you're time and money buying this crap honestly

Question 4

How does the unit fix onto the taps must have something to hold it on or won't the pressure from the water push it off ?

Accepted Answer

The seals have "two" jubilee clips per each seal.  Many comments about this product regard leakage but that is really no p[roblem as the solution is simple enough.  Whilst tightening the jubilee clips make sure the screws are always in an easily accessable / working position.  After tightening as much as you can, run the shower for a minute or two.  The chances are that you will get some leakage.  Turn the shower off and leave overnight.  The next day you will find that the seals have now settled and the jubilee clips have some more give in them.  Tighten the jubilee clips again and the job is done, with no leaks.
