Tools Required

Step-by-Step Installation
- Ensure the water supply to your shower is turned off.
- Remove your existing shower head holder from the shower arm.
- Apply the included thread seal tape (Teflon tape) clockwise around the threads of your shower arm.
- Screw the HammerHead Showers holder onto the shower arm. Hand-tighten firmly. If necessary, use an adjustable wrench with a soft cloth to avoid scratching the chrome finish.

Care and Maintenance
To ensure the longevity and appearance of your HammerHead Showers holder, follow these simple care instructions:
- Clean regularly with a soft cloth and mild soap.
- Avoid abrasive cleaners, harsh chemicals, or scouring pads, as these can damage the chrome finish.
- Rinse thoroughly after cleaning to remove any soap residue.
- The solid brass construction is highly corrosion-resistant, ensuring lasting performance.
Troubleshooting
Issue: Water Leakage
If you experience leaks around the connections:
- Ensure sufficient thread seal tape was applied to all threaded connections.
- Verify that all connections are hand-tightened securely. If using a wrench, use a soft cloth to prevent damage.
- Check that the rubber washer is properly seated within the holder's connection point.
Issue: Shower Head Does Not Fit or Adjust Properly
If your handheld shower head does not fit into the holder or the pivot ball is too stiff/loose:
- Hose Connection: Ensure the correct end of your shower hose is connected to the holder. Typically, the hex nut side of the hose connects to the holder, and the smooth nut side connects to the handheld shower head.
- Tension Adjustment: The pivoting ball's tension can be adjusted. If it's too stiff, gently rotate the large outer ring counter-clockwise to loosen. If it's too loose, rotate clockwise to tighten.
- Compatibility: While designed for universal fit, some older or non-standard shower heads may have unique dimensions. If your shower head still doesn't fit, consider replacing your shower hose with a standard 1/2" NPT compatible hose.
