VELACASCADE™ CRYSTAL SERIES
Fontana VelaCascade Matte Black FAQs
Matte black three-hole deck-mounted basin faucet with 304 stainless-steel body,
brass valve core, dual crystal handles, and independent hot/cold control.
✥
What Is The Faucet Body Material?
+
The FS20020MB specification identifies a 304 stainless-steel
faucet body. This construction provides corrosion resistance,
structural durability and resistance to moisture and repeated
daily use.
◇
What Valve Core Material Is Used?
+
The VelaCascade uses a brass valve core for flow and
temperature control. Flush both hot and cold supply branches
before final connection to reduce construction debris entering
the internal valve assembly.
◯
What Installation Layout Is Required?
+
The faucet uses a three-hole deck-mounted configuration with
a center spout and two independent crystal-handle controls.
Confirm deck drilling, basin position and below-counter
clearance before final fastening.
↻
What Is The Cartridge Cycle Rating?
+
The published cartridge lifetime is 500,000 open-and-close
cycles. Proper supply flushing, secure installation and
periodic inspection help maintain reliable valve operation
over long-term service.
⌁
What Water-Pressure Test Is Specified?
+
The product specification lists water-pressure testing at
1.6 MPa. This is the published product test value and should
not be interpreted as the required normal operating pressure
of the installed plumbing system.
⌂
What Air-Pressure Test Is Specified?
+
The VelaCascade specification lists air-pressure testing at
0.6 MPa. Final site commissioning should still include
inspection of accessible supply joints, valve interfaces
and below-deck fittings for leakage.
⚙
How Should The Crystal Handles Be Commissioned?
+
The two colour-crystal handles independently regulate hot
and cold water. Verify correct supply orientation, consistent
handle alignment, smooth movement and positive shutoff on
both control assemblies.
⌕
Matte Black Finish Maintenance?
+
Clean the matte black surface and crystal handles using a
soft non-abrasive cloth. Avoid aggressive chemical cleaners
and periodically inspect the outlet, mounting hardware and
accessible supply connections.
