About this deal

Pass the rail through the replacement handset holder whilst keeping the gripping mechanism released from the rail. Replace the soap dish / gel hanger if fitted. Pressure (the force, rather than volume of water) is governed by the Bar pressure of your water system. This includes the output Bar pressure of a booster pump / integrally pumped shower in gravity installations. Reducing flow via an "Eco" will not lower pressure. Dependent on the installation, a pressure reducing valve (PRV) may be compatible - please see below... Replacement for broken Aqualisa shower head holder. Previous model discontinued so this was a direct substitute. Fits perfectly and does what it is intended to do. If you start water flow by pushing a button and the shower has flashing lights, this will be one of our Digital / Smart range. Unless like for like, electric showers are not considered direct replacements. Recommendations for an alternative is based on cold water inlet connection type / location, electrical wiring location and current KW rating. Shower footprints differ along with fixing points so new holes will likely be required or may leave old fixing points on visible. The wall will need to be fully tiled beneath the existing shower for the installation to be completed.

Due to connection type, pipe size, and fixing points, alterations may be required to install a wall outlet supplied with a new product. Even during the Global Pandemic of 2000/2021 and the added difficulty to get items when the industry seemed to stand still due to Brexit, this company had no problems soaring above it all with genuine parts, at competitive prices and superb delivery to Northern Ireland. Highly recommend them..Exposed control (rail through ceiling) / pre 2007 concealed models - Push the control upwards, and the retaining ring will move to release the control from its lower securing lugs. Bath control (horizontal orientation) On the right of the control you will see the clip – press in to release the control. Concealed control - On the underside of the control, you will see a single self-retaining screw with a cross-head – loosen the screw to release the securing end cap. You may need to repeat this process a few times to clear the air entirely but afterwards the hot and cold flow should be the same.

Bath control (horizontal orientation) On the right of the control you will see a single self-retaining screw with a cross-head – to release the control. Shower control (vertical orientation) On the underside of the control you will see the clip – press in to release the control. If not due to the above, the issue will be related to the micro switches which may need to be replaced... Hello, the angle adjusts via a rather tight ratchet, you need to use the leverage of the head in place to help with adjustment. I'm sure this part will be fine, but the fitting of it is not straightforward (for us, although for most people it is straightforward I'm sure). I am currently waiting for a plumber to come and fit it for me.

Thermostatic Products (including Aquastream)

If the model being replaced is the Classic, the inlets will need to be reduced from 164mm to 150mm and the outlet reduced from 22mm to 15mm. If at any point the shower begins to spit or splutter then stop turning the dial and wait for the air to clear before continuing towards the hot. To ensure the process is as effective as possible, the cold to hot motion should take a minute or so. With the spray plate facing away from you, at the base of the handle, you will see a horseshoe shaped clip. Remove the clip from the base of the handle by gently pulling each end out and sliding the clip free from its seating. Once the clip has been removed, this should allow the handset to be pulled away from the hose, leaving the adapter still in place which can now be unscrewed from the end of the hose. Please note: If you are changing from a single adjustable head and wish to now include a fixed head, this will not be compatible with exposed pipework. Carefully remove the wall plate which will be secured using silicone sealant. This will expose the PCB which connect to the control knobs.

nice action and feel. Although slightly more expensive the aqualisa gear has a up market feel and gives good service Slide the old handset holder off the rail (dependent on the type of handset holder, you will need to use the pinch mechanism, button, or twist lever to release the grip on the rail)

Smart / Digital Products

How do you fit the replacement holder? Mine has broken and the only way to replace it is to slide it onto the pipe, but how? What needs to happen? Dismantled from top or does controller at bottom of pipe come off? Please note: our Thermostatic and Digital products are not designed to work on mixed supplies (e.g. mains cold / gravity hot) or combination cylinders due to inadequate cold water capacity and working head distance. Due to the differences in main control mounting plates, new fixing holes would be required and may leave old holes on display. Some wall repair may be needed to ensure the new fixing holes can be drilled. Dependent on the new model, the data cable would need to be exchanged for different type. On concealed models, data cables should have been installed in a suitable conduit or trunking to allow for easy removal and replacement. Please see below for details on rail kits, wall outlets and fixed arms. Very helpful staff assisted me in identifying the part I needed. Product arrived as and when promised A1 service
