HOT

The boiler heats the water within the system to around 105 degrees so that the temperature of the water flowing from the tap is almost 100 degrees.

No, this is a high-pressure mixer tap.

The longevity of the future will depend on the location and hardness of the local water. The flowmeter in the filter of your mixer tap measures the actual amount of water that is flowing through it and shows the remaining capacity in litres on a display. This gives you an indication of when the filter will need to be changed. Once the capacity has gone down to zero, a ten-time signal sounds when the filter is used to warn you that it needs to be changed. Even if you do not use it very much, the filter will still need to be changed at least every 12 months.

No, only BLANCO filter cartridges can be used.

You can buy the filters from the BLANCO spare parts shop or via your local dealer.

We recommend making sure that your filter does not go unused for a long time. If the filter function goes unused for about 2–3 days, you should run at least 4 litres of water through it. If the filter in your hot water mixer tap is not used for 4 weeks or more, replace it with another.

As long as the packaging is unopened, filters do not have an expiry date.

No, the filter head is preset. A specific amount of water is run through the ion exchanged and thus softened. Water hardness is intentionally not completely filtered out of the water. Essentially, however, the entire amount of water also flows through the other filter steps, the particle filter and the activated carbon filter. Only one option can be set on the bypass setting.

You can replace the filter yourself. A specialist technician is not required. When replacing the filter, do not turn the angle valve, as the filter head is already fitted with a shut-off valve. The water flow will stop automatically if the filter is removed.

No, it is not possible to install or position the filter horizontally. It only works properly if installed vertically.

If all of the water has been used up and the boiler has to heat up the entire volume of water from scratch, the heating-up will take around 15 minutes.

No, not under normal circumstances. The internal structure of the spout is such that boiling water is surrounding by normal mixed (warm/cold) water, thus insulating the spout. If the spout becomes unpleasantly hot due to constant drawing of boiling water, you should run the cold water briefly. This will soon cool the spout down again.

The controls have been specially developed in such a way that the hot water function is operated separately from the mixed water. However, please supervise children when using the mixer tap.

Yes, BLANCO has a special waste management system specifically for this purpose, with smaller dimensions to fit in a 60-cm base cabinet. The BLANCO SELECT Compact 60/2 requires dimensions of 550 mm.
