Product Information

Full details

This Hansgrohe Metaflex shower hose is ideal for users seeking a compact and easy-to-clean shower solution for smaller bathrooms or specific installations. Its key benefit is the durable, easy-wipe plastic coating combined with a metal-effect coil for a tidy appearance. A potential consideration is its fixed 1.25m length, which may be too short for some users' preferences or shower setups.

FAQs

What is the exact length of this shower hose?

The Hansgrohe Metaflex shower hose is 1.25 meters long.

Is this hose easy to clean?

Yes, it features a plastic coating over a metal-effect coil wrap, making it easy to wipe clean with a damp cloth.

What size is the connection thread?

The hose has a standard 1/2" connection thread on both ends.

Does this hose have pivot joints?

No, this particular model does not have pivot joints. The connections at each end are fixed.

Can I use this hose with any shower head?

The 1/2" connection is standard and should fit most shower heads and shower arms. However, it's always best to confirm compatibility with your existing fixtures.

How do I prevent the hose from kinking?

While the hose has built-in kink protection, avoid sharp bends or leaving it tightly coiled for extended periods. Ensure it has enough slack during use.

Troubleshooting

Hose is leaking at the connection point.

Ensure the conical nuts are properly tightened onto the shower arm and shower head. Check if the rubber seal/washer is present and correctly seated inside the nut. If the washer is damaged, it may need replacement.

Water flow is restricted or weak.

Check if the hose is kinked. Straighten any kinks to restore full flow. Also, inspect the connection points for any debris that might be obstructing the water passage.

Hose appears damaged or cracked.

Visually inspect the entire length of the hose. If any cracks or significant damage are present, the hose should be replaced immediately to prevent potential bursts or leaks.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

This shower hose is designed for straightforward installation. It features standard 1/2" connection threads on both conical nuts at each end.

Ensure the power to your shower system is turned off (if applicable).
Unscrew the old shower hose from the shower arm and the shower head.
Screw one end of the new Hansgrohe Metaflex hose onto the shower arm thread. Hand-tighten is usually sufficient, followed by a gentle turn with a wrench if needed, being careful not to overtighten.
Screw the other end of the hose onto the shower head connection.
Turn on the water supply and check for leaks.

Compatibility:

The 1/2" connection thread is a standard size compatible with most Hansgrohe and many other manufacturers' shower arms and hand shower heads. It does not have pivot joints, meaning the ends are fixed connections.

Care:

To maintain the hose's appearance and function:

Wipe the hose regularly with a soft, damp cloth.
For tougher grime, use a mild soap solution and a soft cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, which can damage the plastic coating.
Ensure the hose is not excessively twisted or kinked during use to preserve its internal structure and kink protection.
Periodically check the connections for any signs of wear or leakage.
