Wall-mounted kitchen tap with flexible spray and single-lever mixer

A hose is chosen on its length and connectors. Threads are standardised — 15/21, i.e. half an inch — so almost every model fits almost every shower. The length depends on the height of the rail: 1.50 m for a standard shower, 1.75 m if the rail is high or the bath deep.

Between two hoses, the anti-twist protection and the sheath material decide it: a hose that twists kinks and ends up leaking at the connector.

• Stainless steel body
• Standard 15/21 thread, compatible with almost all showers
• Anti-twist sheath, so it does not kink in use
• Washers supplied, replacement by hand without tools
• Length suited to common shower rails

As for the shower head, Affordable shower head holder screws onto the standard connector.

It is replaced by hand, without tools: unscrew, check that the washer is properly in place, screw back. It is the cheapest part to change and the first to leak.

On a shower installation, maintenance comes down to limescale. A descaled hose and clear nozzles restore the original pressure — this is almost always where the impression of a weakening shower comes from.

In the same spirit, Bathroom Shower System completes the installation.
