Description
Bring traditional character to your countertop basin with the Abode Kite tall basin mixer tap. Its elevated design suits above-counter installations, while Chesterfield-inspired detailing gives the Kite collection its distinctive heritage look. Choose chrome for a bright, classic finish or antique brass for a warmer accent, then coordinate with matching Kite bathroom fittings.
Designed in Britain and crafted in Italy, this single-hole, deck-mounted mixer requires a minimum operating pressure of 1.0 bar. Check the tap's spout reach and outlet height against your basin before ordering, so water falls comfortably into the bowl.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a tall basin mixer tap?
A tall basin mixer has an elevated body and spout for use alongside a basin that sits above the countertop. This creates clearance over the basin rim without mounting the tap on the basin itself.
Will this fit my countertop basin?
Check the basin's height, rim position and bowl dimensions against the tap's outlet height and reach before installation. Not every countertop basin needs the same tap height. For help choosing, contact customerservice@bubblegumbathrooms.co.uk.
What water pressure does it need?
The minimum operating pressure is 1.0 bar. Ask your installer to confirm the available pressure at the tap. Do not choose it for an installation that cannot meet this requirement.
Is it suitable for a combi boiler?
It can be used with a combi boiler or mains-pressure installation where the supply meets the tap's operating requirements. Your installer should check suitability before fitting.
Which finishes are available?
Choose chrome, product code AB2742, or antique brass, product code AB2745. Each option is a separate finish of the same tall basin mixer.
How does the extended guarantee work?
The standard guarantee is 2 years and can be extended to 15 years by registering the product with Abode, subject to the manufacturer's registration requirements and guarantee terms.
