FAQs
Is the shower head included with the Bristan 1901 Fixed Riser Rail?
No, the shower head and swivel are not included with this product and must be purchased separately.
Do I need to cut the riser rail myself?
The rail is supplied pre-cut for bath shower mixers. If you are installing it with a shower valve, you will need to cut it to the correct size.
What tools are needed for installation?
Basic plumbing tools and a means to cut the rail (if necessary) are required. You will also need wall fixings (screws and wall plugs), which are not supplied.
How long is the Bristan 1901 Fixed Riser Rail?
The exact length will depend on whether it's the pre-cut version or if you have cut it for your specific installation. Please refer to product dimensions if available, or measure your requirement before cutting.
Can I adjust the height of the riser rail?
No, this is a fixed riser rail, meaning its position on the wall is permanent once installed and cannot be adjusted for height or angle.
How do I clean the chrome finish?
Clean regularly with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher grime, use a mild detergent and rinse thoroughly, then dry with a soft cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
What is the guarantee period for this product?
The product description mentions a guarantee, but specific terms and duration are not provided here. Please refer to the product packaging or manufacturer's website for details.
Troubleshooting
Riser rail feels loose on the wall
Ensure that the wall fixings (screws and wall plugs) are securely tightened. If the existing holes are damaged, you may need to use larger wall plugs or relocate the fixing points.
Shower hose does not fit securely
Confirm that you are using a standard shower hose connection. Check the lower end of the riser rail for any damage or obstructions. Ensure any separate swivel mechanism is correctly attached.
Chrome finish appears dull or discolored
Clean the rail with a soft, damp cloth and mild detergent. Avoid abrasive cleaners. Ensure the rail is thoroughly dried after cleaning to prevent water spots.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The Bristan 1901 Fixed Riser Rail is supplied pre-cut for bath shower mixers. For shower valve installations, it will need to be cut to the appropriate size using suitable tools. Ensure you have the necessary fixings (screws and wall plugs, not supplied) for secure wall mounting. Follow standard plumbing practices for connecting to your existing shower hose. The shower head and swivel mechanism need to be purchased separately and attached to the lower end of the rail.
Compatibility: This riser rail is designed to work with most standard shower hoses and shower heads. It is specifically supplied cut for bath shower mixers but can be adapted for use with various shower valves. Please check measurements carefully if adapting for non-standard configurations.
Care: To maintain the chrome finish, regularly clean the riser rail with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as these can scratch the surface. For stubborn marks, a mild detergent can be used, followed by rinsing and drying with a soft cloth. Periodically check that the rail is securely fixed to the wall.
