INSTALLATION
We recommend that the installation, commissioning and repair of fittings (taps) should be
carried out by a professional!
For information on the installation of fittings (taps), please refer to the installation instruc
-
tions and diagrams on the website (www.mofem.hu)!
The operation of the mixer – two handle mixer
With the turn of the right handle cold water with the left handle warm water can be taped.
With the simultaneous opening of both handles the desired water temperature is mixable.
The operation of the mixer – one handle mixer
Pressing the handle all the way down closes the mixer. By lifting the handle the the flow
rate, while by turning it the water temperature can be adjusted. By turning the handle
clockwise the temperature can be increased while turning it counterclockwise
the water temperature can be lowered.
TECHNICAL DATA
Conventional faucet:
-
Operation pressure: 1 – 10 bar (kg/cm2)
-
Recommended operation pressure: 2 – 5 bar (kg/cm2)
-
Hot water recommended temperature: 45°C – 65°C
-
The pressure of hot water should be similar to the pressure of cold water.
-
Any water remaining in the spout or shower head may escape after the tap has been
turned off. If the dripping stops within a short time and you do not experience any
further dripping until the next use, the product is working properly. In the event of
persistent dripping over a longer period, please contact our customer service.
Low pressure faucet (Niederdruck):
-
Operation pressure: Max 10 bar (kg/cm2)
-
Recommended operation pressure: 5 bar
During the heating of the boiler, some drops can fall from the spout, due to the expansion
of the water inside
the boiler. Don’t prevent it. Dropping of the faucet is not a defect of the product but a
combination of the
characteristics of the faucet and the boiler. On the spout it’s not possible to assembly any
other aerator or
dispositive different from the one that is assembled on the faucet. Never cork the spout.
When the faucet is turned off immediately (pressure equalization, gravity), a slight water
flow may occur.
MAINTENANCE
-
The temperature of water intended for human consumption in contact with the
product should not exceed 65°C for public health reasons.
-
Application: drinking water supply, domestic hot water supply
-
After installation, rinsing of the product is always recommended before use or, in the
case of regular use, before consumption. After installation, the tap must be flushed
and a minimum of 10-10 minutes of hot and cold water rinsing is recommended.
After a prolonged stagnation (at least overnight), at least 1-2 litres of water should be
flushed. It is not recommended to use the water obtained from the flushing process
for drinking or cooking purposes.
-
Given the higher leaching of products expected with hot water, it is recommended to
use cold water for both cooking and drinking and to consume it heated.
-
Flexible hoses used to connect products should only be registered products.
-
To protect the structure of the taps, it is recommended to install a drinking water filter
in the drinking water system (filter fineness: 60-90 microns)
Cleaning:
We wish for the final user to enjoy Mofém products for the longest time. In order to do so,
we would like for you to carefully consider the following instructions when cleaning our
products so as to preserve their outstanding surface finishing quality.
The chemicals used for cleaning/disinfecting the products are those described in
Government Decree 201/2001 (X.25.) and Joint Decree 38/2003 (VII.7) of the Ministry
of Agriculture, Food, Agriculture and Forestry, and the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry,
Environment and Water Management.
We recommend the use of Mofém detergent or other detergents based on citric acid.
-
Clean the product with a non-aggressive soapy solution.
-
Limestone stains can be avoided drying the surface after using or washing it.
-
After the complete cleaning process, it is suggested to rinse the product using wáter,
in order to eliminate any detergent.
-
To avoid lime obstructions or blockages on the tap’s aerator, we recommend disas
-
sembling it periodically, and submerging it into a solution of diluted vinegar.
-
You can use cloths, towels, wipers and non abrasive sponges that will not scratch
the surface.
-
Do not use anti lime detergents that contain hydrochloric, formic or acetic acid. They
could eliminate the shine
-
and even the superficial chrome surface.
-
Do not use detergents based on chlorine, bleach or bleaching agents. They can cause
superficial stains.
-
We recommend not using abrasive detergents (for example floor or dishwasher deter
-
gents), abrasive utensils or micro fibered cloths that can scratch the surfaces.
-
The use of detergents with a phosphoric acid base cannot be used routinely.
-
Never spray detergent (whatever its nature may be) on the tap itself but on textiles.
Detergent could enter inside the tap causing mechanical damages. Residues from
personal cleaning products can cause superficial damages as well. Therefore, we
recommend rinsing your Mofém product using water abundantly. On surfaces already
damaged, caused by previous cleaning actions, the use of detergents will accelerate
the deterioration process. Try to use detergents that do not harm the environment.
Aerator
-
It is recommended to descale and disinfect the faucet aerators on a monthly basis.
When cleaning and disinfecting taps, only chemicals that comply with the require
-
ments of Government Decree 201/2001 (X.25.) and Joint Decree 38/2003 (VII.7) of the
Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry, Environment and Water Management.
-
Due to the way in which the aerator operators, it forms a significant aerosol and
therefore poses an increased risk of exposure to Legionella. Therefore, its use is not
recommended in in-patient care rooms in healthcare institutions or in any place where
the Legionella count in cold and/or hot water is above the action level defined in EMMI
Decree 49/2015 (XI. 6.).
Flexible connection pipes:
-
The temperature of water intended for human consumption in contact with the
product should not exceed 80°C in case of TAQ flexible connection pipes, and 65°C in
case of „SOFTPEX” flexible conncection pipes for public health reasons.
-
Application: drinking water supply, domestic hot water supply
-
The section of the water network containing the product must be filled for at least 1
day with drinking water or domestic hot water. The flushing water shall be discharged
into the sewer and it may not be used as drinking water and or as domestic hot water.
Only then should the the water system section containing the product be used for its
intended purpose.
-
In the first weeks after application of the product in case of TAQ flexible connection
pipes metal and organic leaching, in case of „SOFTPEX” flexible conncection pipes
organic leaching may occur, which may cause taste and odour problems, excessive
bacterial growth and increased chlorine demand. This phenomenon is temporary, and
it can be reduced with more frequent water changes and flushing.
-
The chemicals used for cleaning/disinfecting the products are those described in
Government Decree 201/2001 (X.25.) and Joint Decree 38/2003 (VII.7) of the Ministry
of Agriculture, Food, Agriculture and Forestry, and the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry,
Environment and Water Management.
