FAQs
What material is the shower head made of?
The shower head is constructed from durable stainless steel with a chrome finish.
What is the diameter of the shower head?
The shower head has a diameter of 20cm (approximately 8 inches).
Can I adjust the angle of the spray?
This is a fixed shower head, so it does not offer adjustable spray angles. It is designed for a consistent overhead spray.
Do I need to buy a shower arm separately?
Yes, a compatible wall or ceiling shower arm is required for installation and is sold separately.
What type of water systems is this shower head compatible with?
It is compatible with most standard water systems, including gravity-fed, pumped, unvented, and combi-boiler systems, provided they meet minimum pressure requirements.
How do I clean mineral deposits from the shower head?
Regular cleaning with a soft cloth and mild detergent is recommended. For limescale, try soaking a cloth in white vinegar and applying it to the affected areas, then gently scrubbing.
Is this shower head suitable for a low-pressure system?
While compatible with low-pressure systems, performance may be limited. Optimal results are achieved with adequate water pressure.
Troubleshooting
Low water flow or weak spray
Check for blockages in the shower arm or the shower head itself. Ensure adequate water pressure from your system. Clean any visible limescale buildup.
Leaking at the connection point
Ensure the shower arm threads are clean and that PTFE tape has been applied correctly. Tighten the connection slightly, but avoid overtightening, which can damage threads.
Chrome finish appears dull or spotted
Clean the surface with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. Dry thoroughly to prevent water spots. Avoid abrasive cleaners that can scratch the chrome.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
Ensure you have a compatible wall or ceiling shower arm (sold separately).
Screw the shower head onto the threaded end of the shower arm. Hand-tighten initially.
Use PTFE tape (plumber's tape) on the threads of the shower arm before attaching the head for a watertight seal. Do not overtighten.
Connect the shower arm to your existing water supply.
Compatibility:
This shower head is compatible with standard G1/2 inch BSP thread connections commonly found in plumbing systems.
It is suitable for use with gravity-fed, pumped, unvented, and combi-boiler water systems.
Ensure your water pressure is adequate to achieve optimal performance; low pressure may result in a less powerful spray.
Care:
Clean the shower head regularly to prevent limescale buildup. Use a soft cloth dampened with water or a mild, non-abrasive cleaner.
For stubborn limescale, soak a cloth in white vinegar and wrap it around the shower head for a few hours before gently scrubbing with a soft brush or cloth.
Wipe dry with a clean cloth after cleaning to maintain the shine of the chrome finish.
