FAQs
What is the maximum flow rate (GPM) of this shower head?
The PowerMax Chrome 9-Spray Handheld Shower Head has a maximum flow rate of 2.0 gallons per minute (GPM), which meets federal standards for water efficiency.
How do I change the spray patterns?
Simply rotate the spray selector ring located on the face of the shower head to cycle through the 9 different spray patterns.
Is the hose length sufficient for cleaning or bathing pets?
Yes, the 72-inch stainless steel hose provides ample length and flexibility, making it convenient for tasks such as rinsing children, pets, or the shower walls.
What does 'non-stick internal parts' mean for me?
The non-stick internal parts are designed to prevent mineral deposits, clogging, and corrosion from building up inside the shower head. This ensures a consistent spray pattern and prolongs the life of the product.
Can I adjust the water pressure directly from the shower head?
Yes, the comfort control lever on the handle allows you to quickly and easily adjust the shower pressure without needing to adjust the faucet controls.
What material is the hose made of?
The included hose is made of durable stainless steel, measuring 72 inches in length.
Does this shower head come with plumber's tape?
Plumber's tape is typically not included. It is recommended to use plumber's tape on the threads of the shower arm for a leak-free installation.
Troubleshooting
Low water pressure from shower head
Ensure the comfort control lever is set to a higher pressure setting. Check for any kinks in the hose. Unscrew the shower head and check the flow restrictor (if present and removable according to local regulations) and internal parts for any debris. Ensure the shower arm is not obstructed.
Water leaking from connection points
Check that all connections are hand-tight. Apply plumber's tape to the threads of the shower arm and ensure the shower head is tightened sufficiently. Verify that any rubber washers are properly seated in their connections.
Spray patterns not working correctly
Rotate the spray selector ring firmly. If debris is suspected, remove the shower head and soak it in a vinegar solution, then rinse thoroughly. Ensure the internal parts are clean and free from blockages.
Shower head making unusual noise
This can sometimes indicate mineral buildup. Try cleaning the shower head as described in the care section. Ensure all connections are secure, as a loose connection can sometimes cause whistling sounds.
