Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Ensure both the shower valve outlet and the shower head inlet are clean and free of debris.
- Unscrew the old shower hose from both ends.
- Using a wrench (gently to avoid overtightening), attach one end of the new 1.5m shower hose to the shower valve outlet. The conical connector should fit snugly.
- Attach the other end of the hose to the shower head inlet.
- Turn on the water supply slowly and check for any leaks at both connection points. Tighten slightly if necessary.
Compatibility:
This hose features a standard G1/2 inch (13mm) connection, making it compatible with the vast majority of British shower heads and shower valves. It is designed for standard domestic water pressure.
Care:
- Clean the hose regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, which can damage the PVC material.
- Periodically check the connections for any signs of wear or leakage.
- Do not bend the hose sharply at the connectors, as this can cause stress and potential damage over time.
