Ariston 60000896 Cold Water Tap

The Ariston 60000896 is a cold water service tap that acts as an isolation valve on Ariston domestic boilers. It sits on the cold water inlet side of the appliance and lets the supply be shut off locally so the boiler can be drained, worked on or serviced without isolating the whole property. It is a direct replacement item for the tap fitted across the Cares One, Clas, Clas One, E-Combi, Egis, E-System, Genus, Alteas One and Genus One ranges.

• Water weeping from the spindle or body of the tap when the boiler is running
• The tap will not shut off fully, so the cold water supply cannot be isolated
• The handle is stiff, seized or turns without operating the valve
• Scale, corrosion or staining around the valve body or its connections
• Water continues to pass through during a service or drain-down

• Confirm your boiler model against the compatibility list, as the same tap body is used across several Ariston ranges
• Check the part number on the existing tap or in the appliance documentation matches 60000896
• Inspect the connection sealing washer or fibre washer at the same time and renew it if it is compressed or perished
• Have the system drained or the cold water inlet isolated before removing the old tap
