Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
This system is designed for exposed installation, meaning all connections are visible on the wall surface. Ensure you have appropriate hot and cold water supply lines readily available at the desired height. The system typically connects directly to existing ½-inch supply points.
Compatibility:
- Water Pressure: Requires a minimum water pressure, typically around 1.0 - 6.0 bar, for optimal performance. Check your home's water pressure before installation.
- Connections: Standard ½-inch connections for water supply.
Care:
- Cleaning: Clean the surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. For stubborn residue, use a mild household cleaner and rinse thoroughly. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as they can damage the chrome finish.
- Maintenance: Periodically check for any visible leaks at the connections. The thermostatic cartridge may require professional servicing or replacement over time, depending on water quality and usage. Ensure the shower head nozzles are free from limescale; most hansgrohe shower heads have QuickClean technology for easy descaling by rubbing the nozzles.
