FAQs

What is the length of the shower hose?

The shower hose is 2 meters (approximately 79 inches) long.

What size are the connectors?

The connectors are a standard G1/2 inch size, designed to fit most common shower heads and shower arms.

Is the hose resistant to kinking?

Yes, the hose is designed with an anti-kink feature to prevent it from kinking and ensure a smooth water flow.

What materials is the hose made from?

The hose is constructed from stainless steel with chrome plating for durability and resistance to corrosion and tarnishing.

How do I install the shower hose?

Installation involves hand-tightening the G1/2 connectors to the shower head and shower arm, ensuring the silicone gasket is properly seated for a leak-proof seal. No special tools are typically required.

Can this hose be used for high-pressure water systems?

Yes, the hose is designed to withstand high water pressure.

How should I clean the shower hose?

To clean, simply wipe the hose with a damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaning agents that could damage the chrome finish.

Troubleshooting

Hose is leaking at the connection.

Ensure the silicone gasket is correctly seated and not damaged. Hand-tighten the connectors firmly, but do not overtighten, which can damage the gasket. Check if the shower head or arm has incompatible threads.

Water flow is weak or inconsistent.

Check that the hose is not kinked or twisted. Ensure the shower head itself is not clogged. Remove and re-check the installation and gasket for any obstructions.

Hose appears to be corroding or tarnishing.

While designed for resistance, ensure you are not using harsh chemical cleaners. Wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. If significant corrosion occurs, contact customer support.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Resists kinking for consistent water flow.
  • Durable stainless steel and chrome-plated construction.
  • Easy, leak-free installation with included gasket.
  • Extra length provides greater maneuverability.
  • Corrosion and tarnish resistant finish.

Cons

  • May require additional adapters for non-standard shower head fittings.
  • The flexibility might be slightly reduced in very cold temperatures.
  • While durable, extreme sharp bends should still be avoided.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure the shower head and the existing hose connection on the shower arm are clean.
  2. Hand-tighten the G1/2 connector of the new hose to the shower head.
  3. Hand-tighten the other G1/2 connector of the hose to the shower arm outlet.
  4. Use the included silicone gasket for a watertight seal at both ends. Ensure it is properly seated.
  5. Turn on the water gently and check for leaks. If minor leaks occur, tighten slightly (do not overtighten).

Compatibility:

This hose features a standard G1/2 inch connection size, which is compatible with the vast majority of standard shower heads and shower arms sold globally. If you have a non-standard fitting, you may need to purchase a specific adapter separately.

Care:

  • Wipe clean with a damp cloth as needed. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could scratch the chrome finish.
  • Periodically check connections for tightness to prevent leaks.
  • Avoid sharp kinks or twists when not in use to prolong the hose's lifespan.
