Combination Tap Assemblies

Section Code 0460 : Single hole, metal single outlet, hose outlet. Taps used in high risk installations, such as kitchen sinks, are considered to be a fluid category 5 risk. Backflow protection is usually provided in the form of an AUK3 tap gap. Where an AUK3 tap gap cannot be maintained, for example where the tap gap is compromised as a result of:- • the tap being lowered in any way; • adjustment to the spout which reduces the distance between the tap outlet and spillover level of the sink; • or the operation of a pull out hose attachment; alternative fluid category 5 backflow protection is required.
