Maintenance
General Cleaning
Bristan products are made from premium materials, with hand polishing and
electroplated finishes.
Your product should be regularly cleaned with warm water, a mild pH-neutral
liquid soap, and polished with a soft cloth. Any residues from soap,
toothpaste, shampoos and shower gels can cause blemishes if not rinsed off
straight after use.
Household bleaches and cleaners contain harsh chemicals and may damage the
surface finish. Avoid using abrasive cloths, scouring pads, scrub sponges,
steel wool or anything similar.
Some surfaces such as nickel and pewter may be affected by the dye found in
some cloths, so it is also important to avoid hanging cloths on spouts.
Your Bristan shower head has rub-clean nozzles for easy cleaning. Simply rub
your fingers across the rubber spray jets regularly and before you turn the
shower on to remove any scale or debris.
Cleaning the Shower Head
The hardness of the water in your area will determine how often you should
clean your shower head. Build up of scale in particularly hard water areas
combined with constant use means you may need to clean your shower head once a
week. To ensure continued performance the shower head needs to be regularly
de-scaled.
Troubleshooting
| Symptom | Cause | Remedy |
|---|

low.| Increase water flow rate or pressure through system.

valve’s instruction booklet for minimum distance required.
