FAQs

What is Bristan's Wall Mount technology?

Bristan's Wall Mount technology refers to their system for securely fixing the outlet to the wall, often designed for ease of installation and robust support.

Can I use this with any shower hose?

This outlet is designed for standard shower hoses. However, for best performance and compatibility, using a Bristan-branded hose is recommended.

Does this product control the water temperature or flow?

No, this product is solely a wall outlet and handset cradle. Water flow and temperature control are managed by the concealed shower valve it connects to.

How do I clean the chrome finish?

Clean with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners. For stubborn marks, use mild detergent and rinse thoroughly, then dry with a soft cloth.

Is this suitable for a modern bathroom?

This product has a traditional, classical design and is best suited for bathrooms aiming for a vintage or period aesthetic.

What standards does the chrome plating meet?

The chrome plating meets BS EN 248:2002 standards.

Do I need a special tool to install this?

Basic plumbing tools are typically required for installation, along with following the specific instructions provided with the unit and the concealed shower valve.

Troubleshooting

Low water flow from the shower handset

Check that the shower hose is not kinked. Ensure the handset is properly seated in the cradle and not blocking the outlet. Clean any sediment from the showerhead and check for blockages within the hose or outlet connection.

Water leaking from the connection point

Ensure the shower hose is securely tightened to the wall outlet. Check that any seals or washers within the hose connection are present and in good condition. If the leak persists, the internal components of the concealed shower valve may require attention.

Handset does not sit securely in the cradle

Verify that you are using the correct shower handset and that it is compatible with this cradle. Ensure there is no debris obstructing the cradle where the handset rests. Gently adjust the handset position.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This wall outlet is designed to connect to a concealed shower valve. Ensure the appropriate pipework is in place behind the wall. The outlet itself mounts securely to the wall using the integrated Bristan Wall Mount technology. Follow the specific installation instructions provided with your concealed shower valve for optimal results. A basic understanding of plumbing is recommended for installation.

Compatibility: This product is designed to work with Bristan concealed shower valves and standard shower hoses. While it uses standard fittings, it is recommended to use it with Bristan shower systems for guaranteed compatibility and performance. Verify the connection type of your shower hose before purchase.

Care: To maintain the chrome finish, regularly clean the outlet with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as these can scratch the surface. For tougher marks, a mild detergent can be used, followed by rinsing with clean water and drying with a soft cloth. Periodically check the hose connection for any signs of wear or leakage.
