Setup and Installation
The Culligan WSH-C125 shower head is designed for easy installation on any standard 1/2-inch threaded shower arm. No specialized tools are required for the basic installation process.
- Prepare the Shower Arm: Remove your existing shower head. Clean any old plumber's tape or residue from the shower arm threads.
- Apply Teflon Tape: Wrap the included Teflon tape (or standard plumber's tape) around the threads of your shower arm 2-3 times in a clockwise direction. This helps create a watertight seal.
- Attach the Shower Head: Carefully screw the Culligan WSH-C125 shower head onto the threaded shower arm. Hand-tighten until snug. If necessary, use a wrench, but avoid overtightening to prevent damage to the threads.
- Check for Leaks: Turn on the water and check for any leaks around the connection point. If leaks occur, tighten slightly or reapply Teflon tape and re-install.

Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and longevity of your Culligan WSH-C125 shower head. The primary maintenance task is replacing the filter cartridge.
Filter Cartridge Replacement:
The WHR-140 filter cartridge should be replaced approximately every 6 months or after 10,000 gallons of use, whichever comes first. A filter-change reminder sticker is included to help you track this.
- Turn off Water Supply: Ensure the water supply to the shower is completely turned off before proceeding.
- Unscrew Shower Head: Carefully unscrew the shower head from the shower arm.
- Remove Old Cartridge: Separate the two halves of the shower head to access the old filter cartridge. Remove and discard the used cartridge.
- Insert New Cartridge: Place a new Culligan WHR-140 filter cartridge into the designated compartment, ensuring it is seated correctly.
- Reassemble Shower Head: Rejoin the two halves of the shower head and screw it back onto the shower arm, following the installation steps.
- Flush New Filter: Turn on the water and allow it to run for a few minutes to flush the new filter cartridge before use.

Troubleshooting
- Leaking at Connection: If water leaks from where the shower head connects to the shower arm, ensure sufficient Teflon tape is applied (2-3 wraps) and the connection is tightened securely. Avoid overtightening with excessive force.
- Low Water Pressure: Check if the flow restrictor is properly installed or if it needs cleaning. Ensure the filter cartridge is not clogged; if it's nearing the end of its life, replace it.
- Shower Head Drooping: If the shower head does not stay in position, the internal rubber gasket in the ball joint may need adjustment or reseating. This typically involves unscrewing the collar behind the shower head's main body, accessing the gasket, and ensuring it is correctly positioned for friction.
- Difficulty Changing Spray Settings: Ensure the outer ring is clean and free of mineral buildup. Gently rotate the ring to select desired spray patterns.
