Product Information

Full details

The Euroshowers double woven stainless steel shower hose is designed for homeowners seeking enhanced water flow and pressure in their shower system. Its key benefit is the 11mm central bore, maximizing water delivery. A potential caveat is the need for additional washers in some installations due to the standard 1/2" BSP connectors.

FAQs

What material is the Euroshowers shower hose made of?

The hose is constructed from double woven stainless steel with a polished chrome finish.

What size are the connectors on this shower hose?

The connectors are a standard 1/2" BSP size, designed for universal compatibility with most shower systems.

Will this hose improve my shower pressure?

Yes, the 11mm central bore is designed to maximize water flow and pressure, potentially improving your shower experience, especially if you have a low-pressure system.

Can I use this hose as a replacement for any shower hose?

This hose is ideal as a replacement for old or leaking hoses, provided your existing shower head and wall outlet use standard 1/2" BSP fittings.

What should I do if the hose leaks after installation?

Check that the connectors are tightly screwed on and that the washers are correctly seated. You may need to add an additional washer if the connection is recessed. Avoid overtightening.

How do I clean and maintain the stainless steel finish?

Wipe regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners to prevent scratching the polished chrome finish.

What is the benefit of the different outer widths on the conical nuts?

The slightly different outer widths allow for flexibility in fitting, enabling you to swap them if one provides a better or more secure fit for your specific shower unit.

Troubleshooting

Leaking at the connection points.

Ensure the conical nuts are securely tightened. Check that the pre-installed washers are correctly seated. If the connection point is deep, try adding an additional washer (ensure it's compatible with 1/2" BSP fittings). Do not overtighten, as this can damage the seals.

Reduced water flow or pressure after installation.

Verify that the hose is correctly attached to both the shower head and the wall outlet. Check for any kinks in the hose. Ensure the internal bore is clear of debris. If the issue persists, the problem may lie with the shower head or the main water supply.

Hose does not fit a specific shower valve or head.

While designed for universal compatibility with 1/2" BSP fittings, some niche or older fixtures may have non-standard threading. Try swapping the conical nuts, as they have slightly different outer widths, which may assist in achieving a fit. If it still doesn't fit, consider contacting the manufacturer of your shower valve or head for clarification on fitting types.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Maximizes water flow and pressure with its 11mm bore.
  • Durable and corrosion-resistant stainless steel construction.
  • Universal connectors for broad compatibility.
  • Flexible fitting options with swappable conical nuts.
  • Premium polished chrome finish.

Cons

  • May require additional washers for some specific shower unit depths.
  • Stainless steel can be prone to water spots if not regularly wiped down.
  • Limited to shower hose functionality; not suitable for other plumbing needs.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure the water supply to your shower is turned off.
  2. Unscrew the old shower hose from the shower head and the wall outlet (diverter or valve).
  3. Attach the new Euroshowers hose to the shower head and the wall outlet using the conical nuts. Hand-tighten first, then use a wrench for a snug fit, being careful not to overtighten.
  4. The hose comes with washers pre-installed; if a leak occurs, check if additional washers are needed for a tighter seal, especially if the connection point is recessed.
  5. Turn the water supply back on and check for leaks.

Compatibility:

The hose features universal 1/2" BSP standard size connectors, making it compatible with the vast majority of standard shower heads and shower valves/outlets available in the market.

Care:

To maintain its polished chrome finish, regularly wipe the hose with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as these can scratch the surface. For stubborn marks, a mild soap solution can be used, followed by rinsing and drying.
