FAQs

What is Satinjet® technology?

Satinjet® is Methven's award-winning technology that uses twin-jet spray technology to create precisely sized water droplets and optimal pressure. This results in a denser spray and an immersive, full-body shower sensation.

How much water does this shower head use?

The Methven Kiri shower head is designed to use 5.5 litres of water per minute, which is a 60% reduction compared to standard shower heads.

Will this shower head save me money?

Yes, by significantly reducing water consumption (60% less), it helps lower water usage costs and reduces the energy required to heat that water, potentially saving typical families up to £500 annually on energy bills.

Is this shower head suitable for all water systems?

No, this shower head is designed for high-pressure systems, with an optimal working pressure range of 1.0 - 5.0 bar. It may not perform effectively on low-pressure systems.

What is the warranty on this product?

The Methven Kiri shower head comes with a LIFETIME WARRANTY for peace of mind.

How do I clean the shower head?

Gently wipe the shower head with a soft, damp cloth. For limescale, soak a cloth in white vinegar, wrap it around the head, and then wipe clean. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

What are the dimensions of the shower head?

The dimensions are approximately H:30.0 x W:18.5 x D:7.0 cm.

Troubleshooting

Low water pressure or weak spray

Ensure the water system pressure is within the 1.0 - 5.0 bar range. Check for any kinks or blockages in the shower hose. Clean any accumulated limescale from the shower head nozzles.

Water leaking from the connection point

Check that the shower head is securely tightened onto the hose. Ensure the rubber washer is present and properly seated inside the hose connection. If the leak persists, consider replacing the hose washer.

Inconsistent spray pattern

This can be caused by debris in the nozzles. Refer to the 'Care' section for instructions on cleaning the shower head, particularly how to address limescale buildup.
