Your Heritage showerhead has rub-clean

showerhead once a week.To ensure
continued performance the showerhead
needs to be regularly descaled.

see the water type in your area.
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.
