FAQs

Is this shower kit suitable for low water pressure systems?

While the kit is compatible with most standard systems, performance with very low water pressure may vary. The multiple spray patterns might not all function optimally under such conditions. It's recommended to check your home's water pressure.

What is the length of the flexible shower hose?

The flexible shower hose included with this kit is 1500mm (1.5 meters) in length.

Can I replace the handset with a different model?

The handset connects via a standard thread. You may be able to attach a different compatible handset, but it is not guaranteed to match the aesthetic or functionality of the original.

How do I clean the black finish without damaging it?

Use a soft, damp cloth with mild soap. Rinse thoroughly and dry with a clean, soft cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, or harsh chemicals.

What does the 1-year manufacturer guarantee cover?

The guarantee typically covers manufacturing defects and faults under normal use. It does not usually cover accidental damage, misuse, or wear and tear from everyday use. Please refer to the specific warranty documentation for full details.

Do I need any special tools for installation?

Basic plumbing tools such as a screwdriver, adjustable wrench, and possibly a drill (if new fixing holes are needed) are generally sufficient. Always follow the included installation manual.

Troubleshooting

Shower head has low water pressure.

Check the shower head for limescale buildup and clean the nozzles. Ensure the flexible hose is not kinked and that water flow is not restricted at the valve. Verify compatibility with your shower system's pressure rating.

Water leaks from hose connections.

Ensure the hose is securely tightened at both the handset and the shower valve connection. Check that the rubber washer is correctly seated inside the connecting nut.

Riser rail is loose or unstable.

Verify that the mounting brackets are firmly attached to the wall. If the wall is not solid, appropriate wall anchors may be required. Ensure all fixings are tightened securely.

Handset spray patterns are not functioning correctly.

Rotate the spray selector on the handset. Check for any debris that might be obstructing the spray holes. Ensure water pressure is adequate for all spray functions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

This riser kit is designed for straightforward installation onto existing shower systems. Ensure your water supply is turned off before beginning. Typically, installation involves removing the old shower head and hose, then attaching the new riser rail, handset, and flexible hose according to the manufacturer's instructions. Secure all connections to prevent leaks.

Compatibility:

The Affine Round Black Shower Riser Kit is compatible with most standard UK and European shower systems. It is crucial to verify that your existing shower valve and pipework are compatible before purchase. The kit connects to standard shower hoses and typically mounts to existing wall fixings, though new holes may be required depending on your current setup.

Care:

To maintain the sleek black finish and optimal performance:

  • Clean the handset and riser rail regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, which can damage the finish.
  • For limescale buildup on the handset nozzles, gently rub the rubber nubs or use a mild descaler solution as per the product's specific care guidelines.
  • Periodically check hose connections for any signs of wear or leakage.
