  5. Rotate bracket forward or back to adjust the spray angle.

Note: Several U.S. state and local municipal plumbing codes require the use of a backflow prevention device when installing a hand shower. This device is termed a vacuum breaker. If your hand shower includes a vacuum breaker it will be located in the hose, and the hose end with the vacuum breaker will include a sticker that reads “attach this vacuum breaker end to shower bracket.” If the hose is not installed in this manner, water will not flow. If your hand shower does not include a vacuum breaker, and you would like to obtain one free of charge, please contact us at 1-800-525-2774 (U.S. calls only) and request part number 20009558.

SPECIAL FEATURES FOR SELECT MODELS

Water Saving Trickle Setting (some models):

Push Button
Note: This pause button will not shut off water flow completely. A small amount of continuous water flow is necessary to meet plumbing code requirements. The ASME A112.18.1 standard is the official regulation used by the U.S. Dept. of Energy and plumbing code and states that a flow control device shall not completely shut off the flow of water downstream of the primary shut-off valve when fitted to, or integral with, a shower head or hand-held shower.

Hybrid Power Dial (some models):
Move dial left and right to customize any spray setting. Select from full power to an eco power to conserve water.

Extension Clip (some models):
If, following installation, the position of the shower head is too high, you may install the included extension clip.

Extension Clip

Slide the clip onto the shower head from the side. Rotate the clip 90 degrees so that it extends off the rear of the shower head. Slide the clip into the bracket.

WARNINGS:

  • To avoid hot water dangers and conserve even more energy, make sure your water heater is set at 120°F (48.9°C) or below.
  • Test the tub/shower water with your hand before bathing.
  • For additional safety for Ecoflow® or high efficiency shower heads, it is recommended that all homes have installed a pressure balance tub and shower valve with the rotational limit stops properly set by a plumber. If you are unsure of your valve type consult your plumber.
  • For external use only. The potentially deadly amoeba, Naegleria fowleri, may be present in some tap water or unchlorinated well water.
  • Always ensure the handheld shower head is properly placed in the bracket, so as to prevent the shower head from falling.
  • Do not pull on or tug the flexible hose. This may result in the shower head coming loose and falling.

CARE AND CLEANING

  • To maintain proper working conditions cleaning is required when mineral deposits appear on the spray orifices. To clean mineral deposits, gently rub the rubber nozzles on the face of the shower head to dislodge.
  • To clean heavier deposits, remove shower head and soak face down in 1-2 cups of white vinegar (use white vinegar only) for about 2-3 hours. Replace shower head and run in each mode to flush out vinegar. Repeat as necessary.
  • Do not clean or rinse any part with harsh chemicals, heavy duty cleaners, or abrasives; this may damage parts or finish and will void warranty.
  • Clean filter screen by unscrewing from the pivot ball and rinse by back flushing to remove particles. Follow steps 1-3 under installation to reinstall shower head, making sure washer is re-seated on top of filter screen.
