FAQs

Will this fit square-shaped taps?

No, this attachment is specifically designed for standard round or oval bath taps.

Does this require any permanent plumbing changes?

No, it is a completely portable solution that uses push-on rubber connectors.

Can I use this for hot water?

Yes, it is designed for normal domestic hot and cold water temperatures found in a bath.

What is the hose length?

The hose is 1.5 metres long, providing standard reach for most bathtub applications.

How do I ensure the temperature is right?

You should adjust the hot and cold water flow at the tap handles before attaching the rubber connectors to the spouts.

Is this suitable for a caravan?

Yes, it is an excellent choice for caravans and holiday accommodation due to its portability and ease of installation.

Troubleshooting

Water leaks at the tap connection

Ensure the rubber connector is pushed as far as possible onto the tap and that it is sitting centered over the spout opening.

Connector keeps popping off during use

Reduce the water flow from the taps; high water pressure can overwhelm the rubber seals. Adjust the flow until a steady, manageable stream is achieved.

Hose is kinked or restricted

Ensure the hose is not twisted during storage or use; straighten the hose completely and run warm water through it to relax the material.

Pros and Cons

Pros

No tools required for installation
Perfect for rental properties or temporary housing
Excellent reach with the 1.5-metre hose
Easily stored away when not in use
Cost-effective alternative to permanent shower installations

Cons

Not compatible with square or irregular-shaped taps
Water pressure depends entirely on the tap flow
Requires manual adjustment of tap handles to balance temperature
Risk of rubber connectors slipping if water pressure is extremely high

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install, simply push the rubber Y-connectors firmly over your hot and cold tap spouts. Ensure the fit is snug to prevent water leakage. If your taps have unique shapes, check that the rubber seals are pressed flush against the faucet opening.

For care and maintenance:

After use, detach the unit and drain any remaining water from the hose to prevent stagnant moisture buildup.
Periodically inspect the rubber connectors for signs of cracking or mineral deposit accumulation.
If buildup occurs, soak the ends in a mild vinegar solution to maintain a secure grip.
Avoid leaving the attachment on the taps at full pressure when the spray head is closed, as this can cause the connectors to pop off.
