FAQs
What is the warranty period for the Heritage Trinity Shower Riser Kit?

Can I use this shower kit with a combi boiler?
Yes, the Heritage Trinity Shower Riser Kit is generally compatible with combi boiler systems, provided your system meets the minimum water pressure requirements for a quality shower experience.
How do I switch between the drench head and the handset?
The shower valve or diverter (usually controlled by a separate knob or lever on your shower mixer) is used to switch the water flow between the fixed drench head and the handheld shower handset.
Is the handset height adjustable?
Yes, the riser rail allows you to adjust the height of the handset, making it suitable for users of different heights.
What type of finish is the chrome?
The finish is a high-quality, durable chrome plating, designed for longevity and ease of cleaning, providing a bright, reflective surface.
Can the shower heads be replaced individually?
While the entire riser kit is sold as a set, individual components like shower heads or handsets may be available for purchase separately from Heritage or specialized bathroom retailers if needed.
Troubleshooting
Low water flow from shower head
Check if the water supply valves are fully open. Inspect the shower head and handset for any blockages or limescale buildup and clean as per care instructions. Ensure water pressure meets the minimum recommended for the shower system.
Leaking connections
Ensure all connections are properly tightened. Check for any damage to seals or washers. If leaks persist, contact a qualified plumber.
Riser rail is loose
Re-tighten the mounting screws securing the rail to the wall. If the wall plugs are damaged or the wall surface is weak, you may need to use appropriate fixings for your wall type.
Handles are stiff to turn
Over time, internal components may require lubrication or cleaning. If the issue persists after gentle cleaning, contact customer support for advice.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
Installation: This kit requires installation by a qualified plumber, following the included manufacturer's instructions. Ensure all connections are secure to prevent leaks.
Water Pressure: The Trinity kit is designed to work with standard UK water pressures. For optimal performance, particularly with the drench head, ensure your home's water pressure meets the recommended minimum.
Mounting: The riser rail should be securely mounted to the wall, ensuring it can support the weight of the shower components.
Compatibility:
This riser kit is compatible with most standard UK plumbing systems. It is designed to be connected to a pre-existing shower valve or bath shower mixer.
Care:
Cleaning: Clean the chrome finish regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the finish.
Limescale: For areas with hard water, gently wipe down the shower heads periodically with a cloth soaked in white vinegar to prevent limescale buildup. Some shower heads may have rubber nozzles that can be gently squeezed to dislodge minor deposits.
