The Altered:Nozzle may not be used for faucets connected to pressureless boilers. We recommend a minimum pressure of 3 BAR to fulfill the functionality of Dual Flow. For Single Flow Dome we recommend a minimum pressure of 1.5 BAR. Installing check valves at the hot and cold supply is recommended to prevent cross-over flow.

The products are not suitable with pressure less water systems. We recommend a minimum pressure of 3 BAR to fulfill the functionality of Dual Flow. For Single Flow Dome we recommend a minimum pressure of 1.5 BAR.
My faucet has a consealed/cache aerator. Will the product be suitable with that?
Unfortunately not. The product will only work on taps that has a detachable socket for removable aerators.
We have low water quality in our country. How will that effect the product?
The product is equiped with a particle filter comparable to standard aerators. It will therefor not be either better or worse than your current aerator. The product can easily be taken apart and cleaned.
Our country is suffering from hard water/limescale. How will that effect the product and its functionality?
Just like any aerator lime scale buildup will eventually effect the product. But not more than in your current aerator. For limescale we recommend to put the Nozzle in vinegar over night. This will remove and clean the Nozzle.
Start with uninstalling the Nozzle from the tap and then clean the separate parts. You can use both water and vinegar.
WHY DOES MY NOZZLE LOOK green or corroded?
Most metallic materials react when they get in contact with oxygen/water. In some cases, like for iron, the oxidation results in an, often, unwanted degradation/corrosion of the material (e.g. iron turns into rust). In other cases, like for aluminum and copper/brass, the oxidation creates a thin metal oxide layer protecting the metal from further oxidation. For copper and copper alloys like brass, this layer is called verdigris and is colored. The verdigris does not have a negative functional affect on the device but is only an esthetical thing. Copper/brass is the most common material used in drinking water applications like pipes, faucets etc.
Make sure you have placed part C in the instruction (metal/Rubber gasket) with the rubber side down.
Do not forget to reuse your original rubber gasket. Check part H in instruction manual.
Try to tighten your socket. Use a plier if necessary.
Check if you need to use part E in the instruction manual, a brass adaptor ring.
Also check if you need to use the extra gasket F together with your original gasket H.
My nozzle is stuck in mist mode. What do I do?
If you have issues with the Nozzle being stuck in Mist Mode it does not mean that your product is defected in any way. Just uninstall and use a wrench/pliers to hold the top and turn the nozzle. If it's still stuck use another wrench/pliers instead of your hand. Be gentle.
The handle keeps faling off the Nozzle. How do I make it stay on?
1. Screwing the screw through the handle without fitting it to see that the screw goes all the way through the hole.
2. If the screw gets stuck on the way use the hex key to tighten the screw until the it goes through the hole. This clears any potential metal residue.
3. Once you have done that you can fit the handle to the Nozzle.
i would like even more water in spray mode. is that possible?
Yes, it is. To increase the water flow in spray mode you remove the plug on top off the Nozzle. Please see further instructions in the instructions manual.
When I turn off my tap it continues to drop water. How can I fix it?
Water continuing to run after you turn the tap off means air is trapped in the faucet. It is compressed when water is flowing, and then expands as the pressure goes down after you turn off your tap. Certain types of faucets with a high curved neck can contain trapped air, which can make the tap drip after it is closed. Put the Nozzle to spray mode and flush for a little while to get it out.
Make sure that you have placed the handle right. See pictures in the installation folder. The little ”knob” needs to be entered in the right cut.
Check so you don’t have the screw on the backside of the Nozzle to far in so it won't slide on. You can also wet the Nozzles black o-ring. Use a little push to slide the handle on.
