If it isn’t a micro switch tap you can use anythingThis might be a daft question, but do I need a special “Motorhome” mixer tap, or will any monobloc household kitchen tap do the job?
Excuse my ignorance, but what is a micro switch tap, and how do I tell if I’ve got one?If it isn’t a micro switch tap you can use anything
Thanks.If you can look under the tap you may see 2 wires coming off it. If there are no wires or the wires aren’t connected it’s NOT a micro switch tap.
Non micro switch taps have a pressurised water system. Micro switch taps stop and start the pump as you turn them on and off
At least one of mine has micro switches but the wires are coiled up as I don’t use them. The taps are chromed plastic and stupidly expensive for what they are. I almost changed my kitchen mixer tap to a domestic one but the original fits under the glass lid.I've only had the push pump cold water only ones befor .
What do the mirco things do ? The tap are smaller I think and look plasticy. Is it just weight saving or an I missing a good deign thing here !.

I know the pump kicks in as soon as I turn a tap, on so I’m guessing it probably has a micro switch?
It’s more does the pump switch off as soon as the tap is turned off. If it runs for a short time after the tap is closed it’s building the pressure back upThanks.

The van is in storage at the moment but I will go and check for wires before I order a new tap.
