FAQs
What is the warranty period for the Vema Ultraslim Round Shower Head?
The shower head body and finish come with a 10-year guarantee. Cartridges have a 3-year warranty, and serviceable parts are covered for 1 year.
What size is the water inlet connection?
The shower head features a standard 1/2 inch inlet connection.
How do I clean the shower head to maintain its appearance?
Use a soft, damp cloth and mild soap if needed. For limescale, use a diluted vinegar solution, rinse thoroughly, and dry. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
Is this shower head suitable for low water pressure systems?
While designed for standard use, performance may vary with very low water pressure. Ensure your system meets the minimum pressure requirements for optimal results.
Do I need any special tools to install it?
Typically, only a wrench might be needed for final tightening. Most installations can be done by hand, with plumber's tape recommended for a secure seal.
Does it come with a shower arm?
This product is the shower head only. A separate compatible shower arm with a 1/2 inch thread is required for installation.
What are the dimensions of the shower head?
The shower head measures H 46 x W 250 x D 250mm.
Troubleshooting
No water or low water flow
Check that the shower arm connection is secure and not cross-threaded. Ensure the main water supply is fully open. Verify water pressure meets the minimum requirements. Clean any potential blockages in the shower arm or inlet.
Water leaks from the connection point
Ensure the 1/2 inch connection is properly tightened. Check if plumber's tape was used on the shower arm threads and reapply if necessary. Inspect the rubber washer inside the connector for damage.
Uneven spray pattern
Gently clean the spray nozzles. Mineral deposits can clog individual holes. Rub the nozzles with a damp cloth or a soft brush. If the issue persists, check for internal obstructions.
Shower head drips after use
This is often normal as residual water drains. If dripping is excessive or continuous, ensure the main water valve supplying the shower is fully closed and check for any internal valve issues within the shower system.
