FAQs

What material is the Suregraft shower hose made from?

The outer part of the hose is made from durable stainless steel, with a reinforced inner lining for smooth water flow.

Is this shower hose easy to install?

Yes, it features universal fittings designed for straightforward replacement of most standard shower hoses.

Can this hose be used with a bath filler?

While primarily designed for showers, if your bath filler has a compatible outlet fitting, it can be used. However, its main design is for standard shower valve connections.

How long is the Suregraft shower hose?

The hose is 2 meters (approximately 6.5 feet) in length.

Will this hose kink easily?

No, it is designed with an anti-kink feature to prevent twisting and maintain consistent water flow.

What is the warranty period for this product?

Please refer to the product packaging or Xcel Home's official warranty information for details on the warranty period.

Can I cut the hose to a shorter length?

It is not recommended to cut the hose, as this may compromise the integrity of the fittings and potentially lead to leaks.

Troubleshooting

Hose is leaking from the connection point.

Ensure the hose is tightened securely to both the shower valve and shower head. Check if plumber's tape was used on the threads and apply or reapply if necessary. Verify that the rubber washers are present and correctly seated inside the fittings.

Water flow is restricted.

Check for kinks or twists in the hose. Ensure the anti-kink design is not compromised. Inspect the shower head and valve for blockages that might be contributing to reduced flow.

Hose makes a noise during use.

This can sometimes occur with new hoses due to air in the system or specific water pressures. Ensure all connections are tight. If the noise persists and is concerning, check for any internal debris or obstructions.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable construction with stainless steel exterior.
  • Resistant to kinking and twisting, ensuring consistent water flow.
  • Universal fittings allow for easy installation and compatibility.
  • 2-meter length provides ample reach and flexibility.
  • Corrosion-resistant materials for longevity in bathroom environments.

Cons

  • May require additional sealing tape for a perfect seal in some installations.
  • While durable, excessive force could potentially damage the fittings.
  • The 2-meter length might be excessive for very small shower cubicles.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure both the shower valve outlet and the shower head inlet are clean and free of debris.
  2. Unscrew the old shower hose from both the shower valve and the shower head.
  3. Screw the new Suregraft shower hose onto the shower valve outlet, hand-tightening first, then use pliers for a quarter-turn if needed. A small amount of plumber's tape may be used on the threads for a more secure seal, if required.
  4. Screw the other end of the hose onto the shower head inlet, hand-tightening securely.

Compatibility:

This hose features standard universal fittings, making it compatible with the vast majority of shower valves and shower heads available in the market. However, always check the threading size of your existing connections before purchase if you are unsure.

Care:

To maintain its appearance and performance, clean the hose periodically with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the stainless steel finish. Periodically check the connections for any signs of leakage and tighten if necessary.
