FAQs

What type of water system is required for this shower?

This shower is designed for high-pressure systems and combi boiler systems. It is not suitable for low-pressure gravity-fed systems.

How do I adjust the height of the shower head?

The shower head height is adjusted via the telescopic column, which can extend from 930mm to 1260mm, and the shower head slider on the column.

How often should I clean the shower head nozzles?

It is recommended to clean the nozzles regularly, for example, once a month, or more often if you live in a hard water area, to prevent limescale buildup.

What is the maximum temperature override feature?

This feature provides a secure button that must be pressed to access higher temperatures, acting as a safety measure to prevent accidental scalding, particularly for children or the elderly.

Is this shower easy to install?

The shower is designed for exposed installation and comes with a dedicated fixing kit, making it relatively straightforward to install, especially onto existing copper pipework. However, professional installation is recommended for optimal results and safety.

What is the warranty period for this shower?

The Aqualisa Deco shower comes with a 5-year guarantee.

Can I use standard household cleaning products on the finish?

It is best to use a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid abrasive cleaners, bleach, or scouring pads, as these can damage the matt black finish.

Troubleshooting

No water or low water flow

Check that the water supply is on. Ensure the water pressure is within the recommended range for high-pressure systems. Clean any blockages in the shower head nozzles or the valve's internal filters.

Water temperature is not stable

Verify that the system is a high-pressure or combi boiler system. Ensure the thermostatic valve is not faulty. Check for any competing water usage in the home (e.g., flushing toilets, running taps) that might affect pressure.

Diverter not switching between heads

Check for any obstructions in the diverter mechanism. Ensure that water pressure is sufficient for the diverter to operate effectively.

Shower head drips after use

This can sometimes occur due to residual water. Ensure the controls are fully in the 'off' position. If dripping persists, check for valve seal issues.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

This shower is designed for exposed installation and is compatible with high pressure and combi boiler systems. It requires rear wall-fed water supply and can be fitted onto existing copper pipework using the provided fixing kit. Ensure your water system can maintain adequate pressure for optimal performance.

Care Instructions:

To maintain the shower's appearance and performance:

  1. Cleaning the Valves: Wipe the bar valve with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, which can damage the finish.
  2. Cleaning the Shower Heads: The nozzles are designed to be easy-clean. Periodically rub the rubber nozzles gently to dislodge any limescale.
  3. Limescale Removal: For stubborn limescale, use a mild descaler solution specifically designed for bathroom fittings. Apply according to the product instructions and rinse thoroughly. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.
  4. Annual Check: Periodically check all connections for leaks and ensure the thermostatic controls are functioning correctly.
