IN ORDER TO MAINTAIN THE
PERFORMANCE OF YOUR
SHOWER YOU MUST CLEAN
THE SHOWERHEAD.
NOTE: After use it is normal for some water to drip from the shower head for a few moments.
HOW TO MAINTAIN YOUR 'REDRING' POWER SHOWER
All water contains particles of lime which build up in the showerhead and unit reducing the performance. It is therefore important to clean the showerhead by dipping it in a suitable descaling solution. The frequency of this will vary depending on site water conditions.
Cleaning
WARNING: Switch off the electricity at the isolating switch to avoid the shower accidentally switching on during cleaning.
It is recommended that the shower unit and accessories are cleaned using a soft cloth.
DO NOT use powerful abrasive or solvent cleaning fluids.
