Full details

FAQs

Does this system include a thermostatic valve?

No, this system uses a standard manual mixer valve for temperature control.

What is the minimum water pressure required?

The system requires a minimum of 0.5 bar water pressure for optimal performance.

How do I maintain the chrome finish?

Clean with mild soap and water, then dry immediately with a soft cloth to avoid limescale buildup and spots.

Can I install this in a standard plasterboard ceiling?

Yes, but you will need to ensure there is adequate support and space within the ceiling cavity to house the recessed unit.

Is the shower head adjustable?

As this is a fixed ceiling-mounted rainfall head, the position is set during installation and is not adjustable.

Troubleshooting

Weak or uneven water flow

Check that your system meets the 0.5 bar minimum pressure requirement; ensure no kinks are in the supply lines.

Blocked or spitting nozzles

Gently rub the silicone anti-limescale nozzles with your finger to dislodge mineral deposits and clear the flow paths.

Leaking from the mixer handle

The internal cartridge may require tightening or cleaning; consult a plumber to check the seal integrity.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable solid brass valve construction
  • Easy-to-clean silicone anti-limescale nozzles
  • Luxurious wide rainfall coverage
  • Compatible with various plumbing systems

Cons

  • Requires professional installation
  • Installation necessitates ceiling modification
  • Manual mixer lacks thermostatic safety shut-off

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation: Given the recessed nature of the shower head, installation should be handled by a qualified plumber or contractor. Ensure the ceiling joists can accommodate the 400mm housing before finalizing your layout.

Compatibility: This system requires a minimum operating pressure of 0.5 bar. If your home has a gravity-fed system with low pressure, you may need a pump to ensure the 400mm head delivers the expected rainfall pressure.

Care: The chrome finish should be wiped down with a soft, damp cloth and dried with a microfiber towel to prevent water spots. Periodically run your hand over the silicone nozzles to break up any calcification that may accumulate over time, maintaining a clear and even spray pattern.
