Extended Product Information

FAQs

What is the bore size of this shower hose?

This Bristan shower hose has a standard bore size of 8mm.

Is this hose suitable for high-pressure systems?

The hose is designed for standard water flow. While it is durable, users seeking exceptionally high pressure might consider hoses with a wider bore or specific high-pressure ratings.

How long is the guarantee for this product?

Bristan typically offers a guarantee on their products, but specific terms should be checked at the point of purchase or on the manufacturer's website.

Can I use this hose with any shower head?

This hose is designed to fit shower handsets with a standard 1/2" conical connector. It's recommended to check your shower handset's fitting type.

Does the hose have an anti-twist feature?

This specific model (HOS200CN01C) does not explicitly mention an anti-twist feature in its description.

What material is the hose made from?

The hose itself is made of plastic, while the fittings (cone and nut) are made of brass.

Troubleshooting

Hose is leaking at the connection point

Ensure the rubber sealing washer is correctly seated in the hose fitting. Hand-tighten the connection, then use pliers to gently tighten a further quarter turn. Do not over-tighten.

Water flow seems restricted

Check the shower handset and valve outlet for blockages. Ensure the hose is not kinked. Confirm the bore size matches your desired flow rate.

Hose feels stiff or kinks easily

Ensure the hose is not over-tightened at the connections, which can restrict movement. Check for any external obstructions pressing on the hose.

Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure the water supply to the shower is turned off.
  2. Unscrew the old shower hose from both the shower handset and the shower valve outlet.
  3. Check that the rubber sealing washers are present and correctly seated in both ends of the new Bristan shower hose.
  4. Screw the cone end of the hose onto the shower handset.
  5. Screw the nut end of the hose onto the shower valve outlet.
  6. Hand-tighten both connections, then use pliers to gently tighten a further quarter turn to ensure a secure seal. Avoid over-tightening.
  7. Turn on the water supply and check for any leaks.

Compatibility:

  • Shower Handsets: Compatible with most shower handsets that have a standard 1/2" conical connector.
  • Shower Valves: Compatible with shower valves that have a standard 1/2" conical outlet.
  • Important: Verify that your existing fittings are indeed 'cone to nut' type before purchasing.

Care:

  • Clean the hose regularly with a soft, damp cloth.
  • Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these can damage the finish and the plastic material.
  • Periodically check the rubber washers for wear and tear and replace if necessary to prevent leaks.
