The kitchen sink mixer tap is leaking at the joint between the base and the swivel head body.
It is 15 years old, is it easy to repair with a new seal/O ring?
If a replacement is required, the house plumbing is a vented HWC and an AGA which uses gravity to heat the water (no pump), so the hot water pressure is low.
Mixer taps are sold mostly as high pressure but some as low pressure.
What are the parameters to consider when selecting a new mixer tap?
