Troubleshooting
Low water pressure or flow rate.
Check that the bath shower mixer tap is fully open and that there are no kinks in the hose. Ensure any filters within the tap or shower head are clean and free from debris. Verify installation is correct and all connections are secure.
Riser rail feels loose or unstable.
Ensure all mounting screws and connections are tightened securely. If wall-mounted, check that the wall fixings are appropriate for the wall type and are firmly installed.
