Low and Unequal Pressure:
Removal of the flow restrictor in the handset may be necessary to optimise flow performance in low or unequal pressure systems only.
Flow restrictor is lodged firmly in the end of the handset, and pliers may be required for removal.
Care and Cleaning:
Never use abrasives or abrasive cleaning agents to clean this product. Clean regularly with contamination free warm soapy water and a damp soft cloth.
Periodically the filter washer should be removed from the end of the shower hose and cleaned.
If shower performance is compromised by the build-up of lime-scale, soak in limescale remover for up to 10 minutes. Do not use products containing chlorine bleach or hydrochloric acid as these can damage the shower. Always rinse the shower thoroughly after cleaning to remove cleaning products that can damage the shower.
