FAQs

What is Katalyst air-induction technology?

Katalyst air-induction technology mixes air and water to create larger, more voluminous water droplets, resulting in a more powerful and immersive shower experience that simulates warm rain.

How do I clean the MasterClean™ sprayface?

The MasterClean™ sprayface can be easily cleaned by rubbing the surface with your finger or a soft cloth to remove any mineral deposits.

What is the flow rate of this rainhead?

This rainhead has a maximum flow rate of 9.5 liters per minute (lpm).

Does this rainhead come with a shower arm?

No, the shower arm is not included with this rainhead. It features a standard 1/2" connection for compatibility with most existing shower arms.

Can I adjust the spray intensity?

This is a single-function rainhead designed to provide a consistent, powerful overhead spray. The intensity is primarily determined by your home's water pressure and the air-induction technology.

What material is the rainhead made of?

The rainhead is constructed with quality brass and features a Polished Chrome finish.

Is this rainhead suitable for low water pressure systems?

While Katalyst technology enhances the feel of the spray, optimal performance is achieved with adequate water pressure. It may not provide the intended drenching experience in very low-pressure systems.

Troubleshooting

Weak or inconsistent spray

Check for mineral buildup on the MasterClean™ sprayface and clean it by rubbing with your finger. Ensure the shower arm is not blocked and that your home's water pressure is sufficient. Verify the 1/2" connection is secure and not leaking.

Water dripping after shower is turned off

A small amount of dripping is normal as residual water drains. If dripping is excessive, check that the rainhead is securely attached and that there are no internal component issues. If the problem persists, contact customer support.

Visible leaks at the connection point

Ensure the rainhead is properly threaded onto the shower arm. If a leak persists, try re-applying plumber's tape to the shower arm threads and retightening the connection. Do not overtighten.
