TAP9157 - Howdens Monobloc Tap Valve

[dclawson]

Hi, I have a TAP9157 - Lamona Chrome Professional Style Monobloc Tap which is dripping from the spout.

After looking into it further i have found that this may be due to one of the 1/4 turn valves needing replacing.

Looking online it seems that these are not standard and there are different numbers of sizes. I have checked Google and the Howdens site but cannot find the specific measurements I need for this tap.

As I wont be able to get back to measure for myself within the next couple of weeks does anybody have this tap or knows where I can find which 1/4 turn valves are needed?

Long shot but hopefully somebody will know.

Thanks

Welcome to the world of carp that is Lamona. I would try Howdens as your first port of call. They should have a spare parts programme for their products.

You may be able to repair the cartridge. Sometimes it is the thick seal at the bottom that has shrunk and needs to be replaced.

Otherwise bin the Lamona rubbish and fit a known brand like Bristan or Grohe..

As above, either Lunns or a new tap
