I installed a new mixer tap 1 month ago and all has been good up until this morning when i noticed it leaking from below the lever.

When you move the lever to the right it leaks even more and hisses (like a pressure hiss). It does this on the left a little but you have to put your ear up really close to hear it.

I took the whole tap off and checked it and it all seems good. When i put it back on i accidentally put the hoses back to front and it still hisses to the right so i know it's not a hot water pressure problem.

This is the 3rd tap we have had in 6 months as we have thought they were just crap mixers but it seems that there is more to it then just the tap.

Any ideas would be appreciated.

please email me!!!!
