Maintenance Features
Regular maintenance is crucial for the longevity and optimal performance of the Gessi Inciso bath mixers. The manual outlines several key maintenance procedures:
- Pre-Installation Flushing: Before installation, the water supply pipes must be thoroughly flushed to remove any debris (shavings, welding residue, hemp, or other impurities) that could damage the mixer's seals. The aerator should also be unscrewed and rinsed well before the mixer is put into operation.
- Filter Installation: It is recommended to install filters on the general water system to prevent foreign bodies from entering the mixer.
- Component Replacement: If any components need to be replaced, users should contact an authorized retailer or visit the Gessi website. Product maintenance should only be performed by qualified staff.
- Headvalve Replacement: The manual provides detailed instructions for replacing the headvalve, which involves removing the handle, decorative cap, and then unscrewing the headvalve itself. Specific tools (e.g., 2.5 mm Allen key, 20 mm wrench, 17 mm wrench) are required.
- Diverter Replacement: Instructions are also provided for replacing the diverter, which involves similar steps of disassembling the mixer body to access and replace the diverter cartridge.
- Aerator Cleaning/Replacement: The aerator, located at the end of the spout, can be unscrewed for cleaning or replacement. This helps maintain optimal water flow and prevents mineral buildup.
The manual emphasizes the importance of proper installation and regular maintenance to ensure the mixer functions correctly and to prevent potential damage.
