FAQs

Does this mixer come with a shower handset and hose?

No, the shower handset and hose are not included with this bath and shower mixer and must be purchased separately.

What type of water pressure system is required?

This mixer is suitable for high-pressure systems only, requiring a minimum of 1.0 bar.

How do I set the temperature limitation?

The ultra-safe temperature limitation feature can be set during the installation process. Consult the installation manual for specific instructions on how to adjust this setting.

How often should I clean the mixer?

Regular cleaning with a soft, damp cloth is recommended to maintain the chrome finish. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.

What is the flow rate for the bath filler?

The flow rate for the bath spout is up to 20 liters per minute at 3 bar pressure.

Are spare parts available?

Yes, Hansgrohe guarantees spare parts availability for up to 15 years after the product range is discontinued.

What is the warranty period?

The product comes with a 5-year guarantee for the original purchaser and installation.

Troubleshooting

Water flow is weak or inconsistent.

Ensure your system meets the high-pressure requirement (over 1.0 bar). Check for any blockages in the faucet aerator or connecting hoses. Verify that the diverter is functioning correctly.

Temperature control is inaccurate.

The ceramic cartridge may require adjustment or cleaning. If the temperature limitation was set, ensure it aligns with your desired range. Persistent issues may indicate a faulty cartridge.

Diverter is stiff or not switching properly.

Check for any obstructions around the diverter mechanism. Mineral buildup can sometimes cause stiffness; a gentle cleaning with a mild descaling solution might help. Ensure the showerhead and hose are not causing back pressure.

Leaking from the handle or spout.

This usually indicates worn internal seals or a faulty ceramic cartridge. Contact customer support or a qualified plumber for inspection and potential replacement parts.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

Installation requires connecting the G ½" flexible hoses to your existing water supply. Ensure the wall connections are secure and leak-free. The temperature limitation feature should be adjusted during installation according to your household's needs and safety preferences. Professional installation is recommended if you are not experienced with plumbing.

Compatibility:

This mixer is designed for high-pressure systems only, requiring a minimum pressure of 1.0 bar. It is compatible with continuous flow water heaters.

Care:

To maintain the brilliant chrome finish, clean the mixer regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaning agents or scouring pads, as these can scratch the surface. For stubborn spots, a mild soap solution can be used, followed by rinsing and drying with a soft cloth.
