Which faucet is suitable for which shower?
You can conveniently control a single shower head with one single-hole shower faucet in either a concealed or an exposed installation design, depending on your design preferences. The lever handle is convenient for all users to operate. When renovating, exposed installation faucets can be simply fitted on existing connections. A shower thermostat offers added comfort, as it reliably protects you against fluctuations in the water pipe.
You can intuitively control a consumer (= a shower head) using an exposed installation thermostat. For two consumers, you could use a hansgrohe shower pipe (= an exposed installation shower system) that connects the two shower heads to a thermostat and is placed on existing connections. For two or more consumers, a concealed installation shower thermostat is a beautiful and beneficial solution.
What is the correct way to clean the shower faucet?
Gently clean the shower faucet using a soft cotton cloth. It’s best to remove limescale residue using a household cleaner containing citric acid. Do not use stainless steel scouring pads or microfiber cloths, as they can leave marks on the high-quality surface. Refer to our guide for more hansgrohe cleaning and care tips.
Are the connections for the shower faucets standardized?
Yes. Exposed installation shower faucets are fitted on standard connections in the bathroom wall. In other words, they are simply attached on top of the plaster. Concealed installation shower faucets are installed behind the wall and require the matching basic set for the installation to be concealed. To do this, hansgrohe supplies the iBox universal, which can be used with most hansgrohe and AXOR pre-fab sets (control unit on the wall).
