Description
Keep a busy washroom practical with the Aquasense non-concussive basin taps. These chrome pillar taps combine easy-to-identify hot and cold controls with self-closing operation, helping prevent taps being left running after use. Supplied as a pair, they suit a compatible basin with two tap holes and offer a straightforward alternative to conventional manually closed taps.

Check Before Ordering
Confirm that your basin has two suitable tap holes. Ask your installer to check the fitting dimensions, connection sizes, required operating pressure and any temperature-control requirements before purchase. These are separate hot and cold taps, not a thermostatic mixer. Exact dimensions, operating pressure and shut-off timing have not been confirmed for this listing; please contact us if your installation requires these details.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does non-concussive mean?
These taps use a self-closing mechanism, so water flow shuts off automatically following activation. The precise run time has not been confirmed.
Are these push-button or lever taps?
They have top-mounted push-button controls, with red and blue identification markers for hot and cold.
Are both taps included?
Yes. The pair includes one hot tap and one cold tap.
Will these fit a single tap-hole basin?
No. Each pillar tap needs its own tap hole, so a compatible two tap-hole basin is required.
Can I use these at home?
They can be considered for domestic installations where self-closing controls are wanted. Have your installer confirm compatibility with your basin, water supplies and temperature-control arrangements before ordering.
What guarantee is included?
Please contact us for the current Aquasense guarantee terms before ordering. A guarantee advertised for a different branded version should not be assumed to apply to this product.

Yes. You can order even when stock shows zero, and we will fulfil your order when stock is available. For an availability estimate or technical questions, email customerservice@bubblegumbathrooms.co.uk or call 01603 381095.
