Parts and Finish

All parts and finishes of Bristan products purchased from authorised Bristan sellers are guaranteed to the original consumer purchaser to be free from defects in materials and workmanship for the duration of home ownership where the product was originally installed.

For commercial purchasers, the guarantee period is one year. Commercial settings include industrial, institutional, or business premises such as dormitories, hospitality locations (hotels, motels, or extended-stay facilities), airports, educational institutions, healthcare facilities (including hospitals, rehabilitation centres, nursing homes, assisted or staged-care living units), Landlords (including rented accommodation), public spaces, and common areas.

During the applicable guarantee period, Bristan will repair, replace free of charge, or refund any part(s), or finish this is found to be defective in material or workmanship under normal installation, use, and service.

Replace

Refund
If we're unable to repair or replace the product, we’ll refund the original purchase price as shown on your proof of receipt. In some cases, we may ask for the original product to be returned, and we will arrange this at no cost to you. If your product is within it's first year of guarantee, we'll arrange for an engineer to carry out the repair or replacement at no cost, the installation must allow ready access to all products for the purpose of inspection, maintenance, or replacement.

**Bristan products are made from premium materials, with hand polishing and electroplated finishes. Your taps or shower should be regularly cleaned with warm water, a mild pH-neutral liquid soap, and polished with a soft cloth. Any residues from soap, toiletries etc. should be rinsed off straight after use. Household bleaches and cleaners contain harsh chemicals and may damage the surface finish. Avoid using abrasive cloths, scouring pads, scrub sponges, steel wool or anything similar. Some surfaces such as nickel and pewter may be affected by the dye found in some cloths, so it is also important to avoid hanging cloths.
