Troubleshooting
Handset bracket is stiff to slide
Ensure the riser rail is clean and free of debris. Gently test the sliding motion; some initial stiffness may be normal and will loosen with use.
Shower hose leaking at connection
Check that the hose is securely tightened at both the handset and the shower valve. Ensure the rubber washer is correctly seated inside the connection.
Riser rail feels loose on the wall
The rail mounting screws may need tightening. If the wall anchors are failing, they may need to be replaced with appropriate fixings for your wall type.
Low water pressure from handset
Check the shower valve is fully open. Clean any debris from the showerhead face. Ensure the flexible hose is not kinked.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The riser rail is designed to be mounted vertically onto the shower wall. Ensure the mounting points are secure and level. The handset bracket slides onto the rail, and the shower hose connects to both the handset and the shower valve outlet.
Compatibility: This kit is compatible with standard shower valves and water pressure systems. The 1.5m hose has standard fittings.
Care: To maintain the appearance and functionality of your shower riser rail kit, regularly clean the rail and handset with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, which can scratch the surfaces. Periodically check the hose connections for any signs of wear or leakage. Descale the showerhead face if water flow becomes restricted due to mineral buildup.
