{"product_id":"tap3654-victorian-brushed-nickel-swan-neck-bridge-kitchen-tap","title":"TAP3654 Victorian Brushed Nickel Swan Neck Bridge Kitchen Tap","description":"\u003cp\u003eA proper bridge tap: the body sits up above the worktop on two pillars, with a tall swan neck rising from the centre and a lever either side. It is the shape people picture when they think of a traditional kitchen tap, and at 402mm high it is the tallest thing in the Victorian range — designed to stand over a butler or farmhouse sink rather than tuck behind a modern inset bowl. Brushed nickel keeps it soft and warm-silver rather than the hard glint of chrome.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRead this before you order: it needs two tap holes.\u003c\/strong\u003e Unlike the single-hole Victorian mixers, this is deck mounted across two fixed inlets at 45mm each. If your sink or worktop has one tap hole, this tap will not fit it — the chrome or aged brass Victorian swan neck mixer is the single-hole equivalent.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBoth levers use ceramic disc cartridges and quarter-turn operation. Note that Howdens specify the flow as \u003cstrong\u003eSingle Flow\u003c\/strong\u003e: the two levers control hot and cold separately but the water is mixed and delivered through the one spout outlet, in the normal way. Their own page describes this as \"independent control\", which reads as though hot and cold arrive unmixed — they do not, and we would rather tell you that now than have the tap come back.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThis one works on low pressure.\u003c\/strong\u003e Rated from \u003cstrong\u003e0.3 bar\u003c\/strong\u003e and listed as suitable for low to high pressure systems, which is what makes it usable on a gravity-fed tank — rare in a tap this tall.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCollection:\u003c\/strong\u003e Victorian\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eModel Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e TAP3654\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColour Description:\u003c\/strong\u003e Nickel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Brushed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bridge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShape:\u003c\/strong\u003e Swan Neck\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHandle Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Dual Lever\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlow Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Single Flow\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpout Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Swivel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTap Turn Operation:\u003c\/strong\u003e ¼ Turn Lever\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTap Valve:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ceramic Disc Cartridge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAerator Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Replaceable Aerator\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWater Flow Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Neoperl Honeycomb\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e ½\" BSP Male Thread\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePressure Suitability:\u003c\/strong\u003e Suitable for Low to High Pressure Systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWater Pressure Range:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.3-5.5bar\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 402mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDepth:\u003c\/strong\u003e 257mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpout Reach:\u003c\/strong\u003e 192mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight (Without Packaging):\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.927kg\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSupplied With:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fixings, Instruction Manual\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eInstallation\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMount Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Deck Mounted\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Sink and Worktop Thickness:\u003c\/strong\u003e 50mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTap Footprint:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2 x 45mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTail Pipe Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fixed Inlets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eFixings and an instruction manual are supplied.
