What are the dimensions of the hand shower head?

Can I replace the shower hose with a different length?
Yes, as long as the replacement hose uses standard shower fittings, you can connect hoses of different lengths or materials.
Is the chrome finish durable?
The chrome finish is applied to durable materials like ABS and brass, offering good longevity. However, regular cleaning with non-abrasive materials is recommended to maintain its shine and prevent damage.
Troubleshooting
Low water pressure from the hand shower.
Ensure the shower hose is not kinked. Check the silicone nozzles for limescale buildup and clean them by rubbing gently. Verify that the main shower valve is fully open and that there are no blockages in the plumbing system.
The hand shower head leaks at the connection point.
Ensure the thread on the shower hose and the hand shower head are clean. Hand-tighten the connection firmly, then use pliers or a wrench to give it an additional quarter-turn. Do not overtighten, as this can damage the threads.
The hose leaks at the connection point.
Check that the rubber washer is present and correctly seated inside the hose fitting. Ensure the connection to the outlet elbow is clean and tighten it securely. If the leak persists, the hose may need replacement.
Chrome finish appears dull or discolored.
Clean the surface with a soft cloth and mild soap, then rinse and dry thoroughly. Avoid using abrasive cleaning agents, as they can scratch or damage the chrome plating.
