Full details
This Plumb Warehouse Shower Outlet with Hose and Head is designed for homeowners seeking a quick and stylish upgrade to their existing shower system. Its key benefit is the easy installation and integrated handset holder, allowing you to get your shower back in working order swiftly. A potential caveat is the maximum pressure limit of 5.0 Bar, which might affect performance in high-pressure water systems. The set includes a shower outlet with a built-in holder, a shower head, and a 1500mm hose, all finished in a modern Matt Black.

Troubleshooting
No water or low water flow.
Check that the main water supply is turned on. Ensure the inlet connection is secure and not kinked. Verify that the system pressure does not exceed the 5.0 Bar maximum. Clean any debris from the shower head nozzles.
Leaking from connections.
Ensure all connections are tightened correctly. Check that any required seals or washers are in place and are not damaged. Turn off the water supply before attempting to tighten connections.
Hose is too short.
The included hose is 1500mm. If a longer hose is required, a standard 1/2 BSP compatible hose of a different length can be purchased separately.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: This unit is designed for wall mounting. Ensure you have access to the existing water supply pipework. The inlet connection size is 1/2 BSP, and the outlet connection size is also 1/2 BSP, which are standard fittings for most UK showers. Turn off the water supply before commencing installation. Securely mount the outlet to the wall, connect the hose to the outlet and the shower head, and then turn the water supply back on to test for leaks.
Compatibility: Compatible with standard 1/2 BSP shower hoses and heads. It is suitable for systems operating up to a maximum pressure of 5.0 Bar. Not recommended for gravity-fed systems that may fall below typical operating pressures without potential adjustments.
Care: To maintain the Matt Black finish, clean regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as these can damage the finish. For stubborn marks, a mild soap solution can be used, followed by rinsing and drying with a soft cloth.
