FAQs
What is the maximum length of the SuperStretch shower hose?
The hose extends from a base length of 150cm up to a maximum of 200cm.
Is this hose compatible with all shower types?
Yes, it is designed with standard fittings to be compatible with most common shower heads and wall outlets.
How do I clean the chrome finish?
Wipe clean with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners to prevent scratching.
What is the bore size of the hose?
The hose features an 8mm bore for water flow.
Do I need any tools to install this hose?
In most cases, no tools are required. The hose can typically be installed by hand-tightening the fittings.
Can the hose be permanently fixed at a certain length?
No, the hose is designed to stretch and retract freely between its 150cm and 200cm range. It does not lock into a specific length.
Troubleshooting
Hose is leaking at the connection point.
Ensure the hose is screwed on tightly to both the shower head and the wall outlet. Check that any rubber washers are present and correctly seated within the fittings.
Water flow seems reduced.
Verify that the hose is not kinked or twisted. Check the shower head itself for blockages, as this can affect perceived flow.
Hose does not stretch as expected.
Ensure there are no obstructions or kinks preventing the hose from extending. Check that the hose is correctly installed and not under excessive tension from the ends.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Provides excellent flexibility and reach with its stretching capability.
- Durable stainless steel construction ensures a long lifespan.
- Quick and easy installation due to standard fittings.
- Sleek chrome finish enhances bathroom aesthetics.
- Suitable for a wide range of users and shower setups.
Cons
- May require careful handling to avoid kinking when fully extended.
- Compatibility is limited to standard shower fittings.
- The 8mm bore might offer a different flow rate compared to wider bore hoses.
- While durable, the chrome finish can potentially scratch if abrasive cleaners are used.
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Ensure the water supply to the shower is turned off.
- Unscrew the old shower hose from both the shower head and the wall outlet (or shower valve).
- Screw the new SuperStretch hose onto the shower head, ensuring a tight fit. Hand-tightening is usually sufficient.
- Screw the other end of the hose onto the wall outlet/shower valve, again ensuring a secure fit.
- Turn the water supply back on and check for any leaks at both connection points.
Compatibility:
This hose is designed with standard hose connections, making it compatible with the vast majority of shower heads and wall outlets/shower valves available on the market. It is recommended to check the threading on your existing fittings if you encounter issues, but widespread compatibility is expected.
Care:
To maintain the appearance and longevity of your SuperStretch hose:
- Clean regularly with a soft, damp cloth.
- Avoid using abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the chrome finish.
- Periodically check the connections for tightness to prevent leaks.
- When not in use, avoid leaving the hose sharply kinked.
