Product Information

Full details

This shower system is ideal for homeowners looking to upgrade their bathroom with a stylish and functional shower experience, particularly those with modern interior designs. Its key benefit is the indulgent showering with a large overhead shower and a versatile hand shower, all in a trendy matt black finish. A potential caveat is that it requires existing water connections for installation, as it's an exposed system.

FAQs

What is the warranty period for this shower system?

Hansgrohe offers a 5-year manufacturer's guarantee against manufacturing defects. This guarantee does not cover damage caused during fitting, improper use, or normal wear and tear. Working parts have a 6-month warranty unless stated longer.

Can I use this system with a combi boiler?

Yes, this system is generally compatible with combi boilers, provided your boiler provides adequate water pressure and temperature as per the shower system's requirements.

How do I switch between the hand shower's spray patterns?

You can switch between the Rain and IntenseRain spray patterns by simply turning the spray disc on the hand shower head.

What tools are needed for installation?

Basic plumbing tools are typically required, such as an adjustable wrench, pipe wrench, and possibly a screwdriver. It is recommended to consult the installation manual for a specific list and follow professional installation guidelines if unsure.

How large is the overhead shower?

The overhead shower has a diameter of 205 mm, providing a generous coverage area.

Can the height of the hand shower be adjusted?

Yes, the hand shower features a height-adjustable slider with a locking push-button for easy positioning.

What maintenance is required for the matt black finish?

Regular cleaning with a soft, damp cloth is recommended. Avoid abrasive cleaners to preserve the finish. For limescale, use a mild vinegar solution and wipe clean.

Troubleshooting

No water flow or low water pressure

Check that the water supply is turned on. Ensure all connections are tight and free of kinks. Verify water pressure from your home's main supply. Clean any potential debris from the shower head nozzles.

Hand shower spray modes not switching correctly

Ensure the spray disc on the hand shower is rotated firmly. Check for any obstructions in the mechanism. If the issue persists, the hand shower may require servicing.

Water leaks from connections

Verify that all hose connections are securely tightened. Check that seals or washers are properly seated and not damaged. If leaks continue, contact a qualified plumber.

Overhead shower angle adjustment is stiff

Gently try to adjust the angle. If very stiff, apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant to the pivot point. Avoid forcing the mechanism.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Elegant and modern matt black design suitable for contemporary bathrooms.
  • Offers two distinct showering experiences with the overhead and multi-spray hand shower.
  • Easy installation due to the exposed design, requiring no wall alteration.
  • The 1.60m hose provides ample flexibility during showering.
  • High-quality Hansgrohe brand ensures durability and performance.

Cons

  • Requires existing water connections; not a standalone unit.
  • The guarantee excludes damage from fitting, improper use, or normal wear and tear.
  • Matt black finish may show water spots or require more frequent cleaning depending on water hardness.
  • The system's performance may be dependent on existing water pressure.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

This shower system features an exposed design, meaning all functional components are mounted on the outside of the wall. This typically simplifies installation compared to concealed systems. Ensure you have appropriate hot and cold water supply lines readily accessible at the installation point. Connect the included Metaflex shower hoses (80cm for water connection, 160cm for hand shower) according to the included instructions.

Compatibility:

The system is designed to connect to existing water mixer or water connections. It is compatible with standard UK plumbing. The flexibility offered by the second hose connection allows it to be integrated with various existing setups.

Care:

To maintain the matt black finish, clean regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, or solvents, as these can damage the surface. For limescale removal, use a mild vinegar-based solution and wipe clean. Ensure all connections are secure to prevent leaks.
