Setup and Installation

Installation of this shower system requires plumbing knowledge and should ideally be performed by a qualified professional. Ensure all local plumbing codes are followed.

1. iBox Universal Plus Rough Installation

The iBox Universal Plus Rough (Model 01850181) is the core component for water distribution and temperature control. It features rotationally-symmetric installation for flexibility. Install the iBox according to the manufacturer's instructions, ensuring it is securely mounted and properly plumbed to hot and cold water lines.

2. Pressure Balance Valve Trim Installation

Once the iBox is installed, the Pressure Balance Valve Trim with Diverter (Model 04447000) can be mounted. This trim controls water flow and temperature, and directs water to either the main showerhead or the handshower.

Operating Instructions

Your Hansgrohe Raindance Shower Set is designed for intuitive operation.

Water Flow and Temperature Control

The main lever handle on the Pressure Balance Valve Trim controls the water flow and temperature. Rotate the handle to adjust the temperature from cold to hot. Pull the handle outwards to increase water flow and push inwards to decrease or shut off the flow.

Diverter Function

The smaller lever handle on the valve trim acts as a two-function diverter. Rotate this handle to switch water flow between the main Raindance Showerhead and the Handheld Shower.

Handheld Shower Spray Modes

The handheld shower offers three distinct spray modes. To change the spray mode, rotate the spray face of the handheld shower. The available modes are:

  • Rain AIR: A soft, voluminous rain spray enriched with air.
  • Balance AIR: A balanced, invigorating spray.
  • Whirl Air: A concentrated, massaging spray.

Maintenance and Cleaning

Regular cleaning and maintenance will ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your Hansgrohe shower set.

General Cleaning

Clean your shower components with a mild soap solution and a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the chrome finish.

QuickClean Technology

The Hansgrohe Raindance showerhead and handheld shower are equipped with QuickClean technology. This feature allows for easy removal of limescale deposits. Simply rub the silicone nozzles on the spray face with your finger to dislodge any mineral buildup. This should be done regularly, especially in areas with hard water, to maintain optimal spray performance.
