Product Information
Full details
The Hudson Reed Cloudburst Fixed Shower Head is designed for homeowners seeking a modern and luxurious upgrade to their bathroom. Its unique Cloudburst design and chrome finish provide a spa-like experience, while solid brass construction ensures durability. A potential consideration is its requirement for a minimum water pressure of 0.5 bar, which might limit installation in some older plumbing systems. Key features include a spacious 230mm diameter for wide coverage, robust brass construction, and a sleek chrome finish, making it a stylish and functional addition to contemporary bathrooms.

FAQs
What is the minimum water pressure required for this shower head?
The Hudson Reed Cloudburst Fixed Shower Head requires a minimum water pressure of 0.5 bar to function effectively.
Is this shower head suitable for a low-pressure system?
It is not ideal for systems consistently below 0.5 bar, as performance may be significantly reduced. Consider a shower pump or a different shower head designed for low pressure if your system is weak.
How do I clean the chrome finish?
Wipe the chrome finish with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher spots or limescale, use a mild solution of water and white vinegar, then rinse and dry thoroughly. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
Can I use this with a ceiling-mounted shower arm?
Yes, this shower head is designed to be compatible with both wall-mounted and ceiling-mounted shower arms.
What material is the shower head made from?
The shower head is manufactured from solid brass for durability and longevity.
What is the warranty period?
Hudson Reed provides a 20-year guarantee against faulty workmanship or materials, provided the product is installed and maintained correctly.
Does the shower head have adjustable spray settings?
This is a fixed shower head and does not feature adjustable spray settings. It provides a consistent 'Cloudburst' spray pattern.
Troubleshooting
Low water flow or pressure
Verify that the water pressure meets the minimum 0.5 bar requirement. Check for blockages in the shower arm or any inline filters. Ensure the flow restrictor (if applicable and removable) is not impeding flow beyond desired levels. Clean any sediment from the connection point.
Uneven spray pattern
Check if any nozzles are blocked by limescale or debris. Gently clean the nozzles with a soft brush or by rubbing them with a cloth. Ensure the shower head is securely and evenly attached to the shower arm.
Dripping after shower use
This is often normal as residual water drains. If dripping is continuous and significant, check the seal between the shower head and the arm. Ensure it is properly seated and not damaged. Turn off the water supply to the shower and check the internal valve if the issue persists.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Ensure your water system provides a minimum pressure of 0.5 bar.
- Connect the shower head to your chosen shower arm (wall-mounted or ceiling) following the manufacturer's instructions.
- Hand-tighten the connection to avoid damaging the threads, then use a wrench for a final snug fit if necessary. Over-tightening can damage the seal.

- Suitable for systems with a minimum pressure of 0.5 bar.

Care:
- Clean regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the chrome finish.
- For limescale build-up, use a mild solution of vinegar and water, then rinse thoroughly. Some models may have easy-clean nozzles; gently rub them to dislodge deposits.
