Product Information

Full details

The Hansgrohe Vernis Blend Shower System is designed for users seeking an elegant, convenient, and water-efficient showering experience that also integrates a bath filler. Its key benefit is combining a luxurious overhead shower and a versatile hand shower with the practicality of a thermostatic bath mixer, all while saving up to 40% on water usage. A potential caveat is its suitability only for high-pressure systems (over 1.0 bar). This system offers a harmonious design with soft curves, available in chrome, and features Hansgrohe's quality craftsmanship.

FAQs

What is EcoSmart technology?

EcoSmart technology is Hansgrohe's system for reducing water consumption. The Vernis Blend shower system uses this technology to consume up to 40% less water than standard versions, without compromising on showering experience.

Is this shower system suitable for all types of water pressure?

No, this system is designed for high-pressure water systems only, requiring a minimum of over 1.0 bar. It is not suitable for low-pressure installations.

How do I switch between the bath filler and the shower?

The system features a user-friendly diverter. Simply operate the diverter (usually integrated with the controls) to switch the water flow between the bath spout and the shower head.

How do I clean the shower head to prevent limescale buildup?

The shower heads are equipped with QuickClean technology. You can easily remove limescale deposits by simply wiping the flexible silicon nubs on the spray disc with a soft cloth.

What is the safety feature on the thermostatic mixer?

The thermostatic mixer prevents sudden temperature fluctuations. It also includes a 40°C safety lock, which requires manual override for hotter temperatures, protecting users from scalding.

What are the different spray modes on the hand shower?

The Vernis Blend Vario hand shower offers two spray modes: Rain and IntenseRain. You can switch between these by simply rotating the spray disc on the front of the hand shower.

What does 'exposed valve installation' mean?

Exposed valve installation means the shower valve is mounted on the surface of the wall, rather than being hidden behind it. This can make installation simpler and is often useful for solid wall constructions.

What is the warranty period for this shower system?

Hansgrohe provides a 5-year guarantee on this product for the original purchaser and installation. They also guarantee the availability of spare parts for 15 years.

Troubleshooting

Water temperature is not consistent.

Ensure the thermostatic mixer is functioning correctly. Check for any blockages in the hot or cold water supply lines. If the issue persists, the thermostatic cartridge may need replacement.

Low water flow from shower heads.

Verify that your water pressure meets the minimum requirement of 1.0 bar. Check for any kinks or blockages in the shower hose or internal components. Clean the shower head spray discs using the QuickClean feature.

Diverter not switching between bath and shower.

Inspect the diverter mechanism for debris or obstruction. Ensure it is being operated with a firm, decisive movement. If the diverter is stiff or unresponsive, professional inspection may be required.

Device won't turn on / no water flow.

Confirm that the main water supply is on and that no other fixtures are drawing excessive water. Check if there are any shut-off valves that may have been accidentally closed. Ensure the system is installed correctly according to manufacturer instructions.

Poor performance from hand shower.

Rotate the spray disc to ensure it is not stuck between settings. Clean the spray nozzles with a soft cloth or brush. Check the shower hose for any internal damage or blockages.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Water-saving EcoSmart technology reduces consumption by up to 40%.
  • Thermostatic mixer provides consistent temperature and safety features.
  • Combines overhead shower, hand shower, and bath filler for versatile use.
  • Elegant design with soft curves complements modern bathrooms.

Cons

  • Requires high-pressure water systems (minimum 1.0 bar).

  • Maximum operating pressure is limited to 10.0 bar.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup:

This system features an exposed valve installation, meaning the shower valve is mounted on the surface of the wall rather than concealed within it. This can simplify installation, particularly in solid wall constructions, and potentially reduce labor costs. Ensure your plumbing provides the necessary hot and cold water feeds to the valve.

Compatibility:

  • Pressure Requirements: This shower system is suitable for high-pressure systems only. A minimum operating pressure of over 1.0 bar is required for optimal performance. It is not recommended for low-pressure systems.
  • Maximum Operating Pressure: The system should not exceed 10.0 bar.

Care and Maintenance:

  • Cleaning: To clean the shower heads and maintain their performance, use a soft, damp cloth. For limescale removal, simply wipe the silicon nubs (QuickClean feature) on the spray discs. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that could damage the finish or internal components.
  • Regular Checks: Periodically check all connections for leaks and ensure the diverter mechanism operates smoothly. The thermostatic cartridge may require servicing over time, and spare parts are available for 15 years from Hansgrohe.
