How often should I clean the rubber nozzles?

Troubleshooting
Low water pressure from the shower head.
Check for blockages in the shower head nozzles. Clean the nozzles using the care instructions. Also, ensure the shower arm is not kinked and that the main water supply to the house is at adequate pressure.
Inconsistent spray pattern.
Mineral buildup or debris may be obstructing some nozzles. Gently clean the rubber nozzles with your fingers or a soft brush. Ensure the shower head is properly tightened onto the shower arm.
Shower head leaks at the connection point.
Check the seal or washer inside the shower head connection. If damaged or missing, replace it. Ensure the shower head is screwed on straight and not cross-threaded. Tighten gently if loose.
Chrome finish appears dull or scratched.
Clean the surface with a soft, damp cloth. For stubborn marks, use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner specifically designed for chrome finishes. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive pads.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
The GoodHome Kentia Shower Head is designed for straightforward installation. Typically, it screws directly onto a standard shower arm. Ensure the existing shower arm is clean and free from debris. Hand-tighten the shower head onto the arm, then use a wrench for a final quarter-turn if necessary. Avoid over-tightening, which can damage the threads.
Compatibility:
This shower head is compatible with all standard UK shower arms and hoses. Its design is intended to work with typical domestic water pressure systems. For optimal performance, ensure your home's water pressure meets the manufacturer's recommendations, if available.
Care:
To maintain the Kentia shower head's performance and appearance:
- Regular Cleaning: Periodically wipe the rubber nozzles with a soft, damp cloth to remove any soap scum or mineral deposits.
- Limescale Removal: For tougher buildup, soak the shower head (or just the faceplate if detachable) in a mild solution of white vinegar and water for a few hours. Rinse thoroughly afterward.
- Polishing: Use a soft, dry cloth to buff the chrome finish and maintain its shine. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, which can scratch the surface.
