FAQs

What is EcoSmart technology?

EcoSmart technology limits the water flow rate, in this case to 6.5 liters per minute at 3 bar pressure. This helps conserve water and reduce energy consumption for heating water, leading to lower utility bills.

How do I clean the shower head?

You can easily clean the shower head by rubbing the QuickClean nozzles to remove limescale. For a more thorough clean, you can remove the shower head and soak it in a mild vinegar solution.

Is this shower head adjustable?

The shower head has a fixed position but offers a 15-degree angle adjustment to help you direct the spray. It is not a multi-angle or swivel head.

What is the spray pattern?

The shower head features an invigorating and energizing Rain spray pattern, designed to mimic natural rainfall for a comprehensive and refreshing shower experience.

What is the size of the shower head?

The shower head has an XXL size, measuring 230 x 170mm, providing a large spray surface for full body coverage.

What is the thread size for installation?

The shower head uses a standard G1/2 connection, which is compatible with most standard shower arms.

Does this shower head require a special shower arm?

No, it uses a standard G1/2 connection and is designed to work with most standard shower arms. However, ensure your shower arm is securely mounted.

Troubleshooting

Low water pressure or weak spray

Check if the flow rate is restricted by EcoSmart technology. Ensure the shower arm threads are not blocked. Clean the QuickClean nozzles for any limescale buildup. Verify that your home's water pressure is adequate for shower head operation.

Leaking at the connection point

Ensure the G1/2 connection is properly tightened. Reapply plumber's tape to the shower arm threads and retighten the shower head. Check the seal or washer inside the connection.

Water spraying unevenly

Limescale or debris may be blocking the nozzles. Use the QuickClean feature by rubbing the nozzles. If the issue persists, remove the shower head and clean the nozzles more thoroughly.
