Hot water flow is poor want to improve it

[ShaunCorbs]

Yes the end pulls out, not that i have ever used it

does the spout go below the counter top?

Got my glasses on and i can just read "clearwater" on the bottom ring

Pull out nozzle types I think are all only rated for high pressure. They are very restrictive.
Ordinary modern 1/4 turn kitchen mixers are generally poor enough poor, although some strangely are okay.
The flexi hose tails are small bore, then the body of tap is same and the ceramic works have only a small max opening. Then the spout really adds to the restriction - particularily due to the hot having to go through a small bore pipe in middle of spout, - which on pull out type is a flexi. Add to that an airator at end which can be only for high pressure. Check the airator isn't partially blocked by unscrewing it

Emporia Clearwater Spray Tap, Chrome Sale Twin Levers, Swan Neck "C" Spout 0.5 Bar

no mate .5 bar so high pressure normally low pressure are a .1bar min

and if the hose goes below the top of the worktop its classed as cat 5 and we cant have that

Just measured cold flow. its 12Lpm. When i pull out the hose it almost reaches the bottom of the sink

or change the tap also change it to a non flexi spout so your ok with water regs then

your flow would triple with this tap with copper tails , ideal for gravity systems

 

[ShaunCorbs]

Or any gravity rated tap
