General Cleaning
Your fitting has a high quality finish
and should be treated with care to
preserve the visible surfaces. All
finishes will wear if not cleaned
correctly. The only safe way to clean
your product is to wipe with a soft
damp cloth. Stains can be removed
using washing up liquid. All
bathroom cleaning products
(powders and liquids) will damage
the surface of your fitting, even the
non-scratch cleaners.
Note: Never use abrasive
detergents or disinfectants or those
containing alcohol, hydrochloric
acid or phosphoric acid.
We advise that your fitting is regularly
serviced in hard water areas to maintain
optimum performance.
Cleaning the Showerhead:
CAD BSM C
Your Bristan showerhead 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.
Maintenance
The hardness of the water in your area
will determine how often you should
clean your showerhead. Build up of scale
in particularly hard water areas
combined with constant use means you
may need to clean your showerhead
once a week. To ensure continued
performance the showerhead needs to
be regularly descaled.
Tip: If the showerhead is heavily scaled
or has not be maintained for a long
period of time a solution of hot water
and white vinegar may be needed to
clear the scale.
Mix a 50/50 solution and rub the
nozzles thoroughly with the solution
making sure the solution gets into all of
the nozzles.
Wash off the solution with clean water.
