The Bristan In Line Divertor is designed for users looking to add shower handset functionality to an existing rigid riser or shower valve setup. Its key benefit is the simple, single-handle operation that easily diverts water between the main shower head and a handset, enhancing shower flexibility. A potential caveat is that it requires support from existing rigid pipework or a shower valve, meaning it's not a standalone fixture and needs a compatible system.

An in-line diverter is a plumbing component installed within the water supply line that allows you to switch the flow of water between two different outlets, such as a fixed shower head and a separate shower handset.
While basic plumbing tasks can be DIY, installing an in-line diverter requires integration with existing pipework and ensuring proper support. Professional installation by a qualified plumber is recommended for optimal safety and performance.
It means that the diverter needs to be physically secured and integrated into the existing solid plumbing lines or attached directly to a robust shower valve. It cannot simply be hung or attached to flexible hoses.
Clean regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners. For tougher spots, use a mild, non-abrasive bathroom cleaner and rinse thoroughly, then buff dry.
The product description states a guarantee is included, but the specific duration is not detailed here. Please refer to the product packaging or manufacturer's documentation for exact guarantee terms.
This diverter is specifically designed for shower systems, allowing water to divert to a shower handset. It is not intended for use with bath spouts.
This diverter has two outlets, typically for a fixed shower head and a shower handset.
Check for any obstructions or debris around the handle mechanism. Ensure the diverter is correctly aligned with the pipework. If the issue persists, it may require professional inspection.
Turn off the water supply. Check and tighten all connections. Ensure appropriate plumbing tape or sealant has been used correctly on threaded connections. If leaks continue, the internal seals may need replacement.
Ensure the diverter handle is in the fully engaged position for the desired outlet. Check for blockages within the shower head or handset. Low water pressure can also affect diverter performance.
This indicates an installation issue. The diverter must be securely fastened or integrated with rigid pipework or a shower valve. Re-installation by a qualified plumber may be necessary.
Setup:
This diverter must be installed inline with your existing rigid riser or shower valve. It requires direct support from the rigid pipework or the shower valve itself. Ensure all connections are secure and leak-free. Professional installation is recommended to guarantee correct integration and support.
Compatibility:
Compatible with rigid riser shower systems and shower valves that can provide adequate support. It is designed to work with standard plumbing systems. Check your existing shower setup to ensure it can accommodate an in-line diverter.
Care:
To maintain the chrome finish, regularly clean the diverter with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as these can scratch the surface. For stubborn marks, a mild, non-abrasive bathroom cleaner can be used, followed by a thorough rinse and buff dry.
