I bought a new kitchen mixer tap. Link below.


Every time I walk into the kitchen, I see a drip on the end of the tap. I remove the drip, to discover another drip on the end of it after about couple of hours. Now, is there a problem with the tap, or is it the design of the tap which is making it slightly drip? The tap has a long spout, it is the dripping a result of the tap emptying itself after use? Funnily enough, when I use the hot water only, the tap drips less after use. Any thoughts most welcome.
 
Best thing you can do is put a glass below and see how much it’s dripping one to five drips over a day is normal
