Can I use taps from the US?

I'm not sure of the exact wells requirements ( I just know that if you buy here in aus it meet the standards)

But the showers are no more than 9 lt / minute
I think taps are 5 or 6 lt/ minute.

I think taps are 5 or 6 lt/ minute.

I don't know if the standard has changed in the past few years, but the taps I have put out way more than "5 or 6 lt/minute". I'd guess it would only take a few seconds to get 5 litres out of most taps.

I think taps are 5 or 6 lt/ minute.

If that was the standard I would gladly break the law.

Wells came in 2 years ago with an amnesty type period of a little over 18 months ( so suppliers and plumbers could come to grips with it.)

Besides wells requirements the taps you install must have the australian water mark - this says that they are approved here for installation.

As i said earlier the metals american taps are made out of may not, and in my opinion will not, be able to cope with the harshness of our water in australia.

Short answer- no you can't install any overseas sourced taps here.
