2 DESIGNED FOR YOU Good kitchen tap design is not just about problem solving. It is about creating a beautiful and practical object that can stand out in your home but also integrate invisibly within your kitchen. It needs to deliver the right mixture of simplicity, elegance and innovation in equal measure. Despite knowing this, I cannot resist adding something personal to all my designs Paul Illingworth Abode Designer 3

3 Designed for LIFE The Abode ranges of kitchen mixertaps are created for people who want the perfect blend of design, performance and sheer quality in their homes without an enormous price tag. All Abode taps are lovingly hand finished, assembled and tested in our European factories prior to the journey to the centre of your kitchen and your daily life. 5

4 Distinctly detailed Each and every detail on an Abode kitchen tap serves a purpose. Every form performs a function, beautifully. And at the heart of the design, precise engineering and manufacturing quality ensure smooth, almost effortless control. 7

5 FUNKTIONALITY assured All Abode products use the finest components, from silky smooth valve cartridges to our anti splash aerators at the end of the spout all are designed to improve the experience of using our taps. These small things might not be immediately noticeable but add up, collectively to make a good design, great. WATER AERATION All mixers use spout aerators or flow straighteners to add bubbles to the water leaving your tap. These innovations in fluid technology keep your water flow in a controlled and distinctive pattern and eliminates splash back. Simple ideas, refreshing benefits. VALVE CARTRIDGES All Abode cartridge designs are tested for over 200,000 cycles before we will pass them for use within our taps. Why? Well this means that under normal use conditions your tap valves have proven that they will work for many years to come. The kitchen tap is the most used appliance in the kitchen, so valve quality assurance is essential. FINISHING QUALITY We use traditional artisan hand polishing techniques which ensure perfect blemish free surfaces and crisp edges. Our hand treatment does not end there we use hand plating for Chrome, Nickel and Bronze plating. Yes we know it is more expensive to do it this way, but it means that the finish is richer, the plating deeper and ultimately more durable. LUXURY PACKAGING After taking all this care with the product, we want to ensure they reach you in perfect condition with all the parts that you will need for a seamless and straightforward installation. Fixing kits and tail pipes (with non return valves where necessary) are provided and designed to seat neatly within a standard 35mm tap hole. If the tap is heavy or tall, we also provide you with a tap stabilisation bracket in the box. We try and think of everything so you don t have to. Making simple objects complicated is commonplace; making complicated functionality simple, incredibly simple, that s creativity COMPREHENSIVE WARRANTY Such is our dedication and reputation for quality, we offer a Comprehensive 5 Year Warranty on all our mixertap products, from our least to most expensive designs. We cover the materials used and valves for 5 years from the date of installation. For more details refer to page 126. Wa t y r r a n r r a n Wa t y t y Wa r a n r r a n t y Wa r 9

61 SWICH AQUIFIER A Minor Revolution in filtered water technology The Swich is easy to install and use. Simply turn the handle control to indicate the type of water supply that you wish to channel through the tap giving you immediate access to both the domestic supply and then to water filtered through the Abode Aquifier filter cartridge, delivering clear refreshing results. The flow of cold or filtered water from the tap is adjusted and managed in exactly the same way as you would normally use the tap. When the Swich is turned to the filter setting, you will experience a lower flow of water. This is designed to ensure that the water coming into the filter has sufficient contact time with the activated carbon inside the filter cartridge, housed discreetly under the sink. Installation is quick and simple. Abode has pioneered the use of push-fit pipe technology for the simple DIY installation of our Swich filtered water diverter system. Normal domestic water passing over the 5 Micron activated carbon filter reduces chlorine levels and reduces sediment, dirt, dissolved metals and rust resulting in a substantially improved water taste.
