This manual provides detailed instructions for the installation, operation, and maintenance of your DELTA FAUCET 52487-SS-PR Universal Showerhead with Lumicoat Stainless finish.

1. Introduction

The DELTA FAUCET 52487-SS-PR Universal Showerhead is designed to enhance your showering experience with innovative features. It incorporates H2Okinetic Technology, which sculpts water into a unique wave pattern, providing the sensation of more water and increased pressure. The UltraSoak Spray mimics dense natural rainfall for a saturating shower, while the Lumicoat Finishes ensure easy cleaning and resistance to mineral buildup and hard water stains.

2. Setup and Installation

Installing your new DELTA showerhead is a straightforward process that typically does not require special tools. You will need standard plumber's tape for a secure, leak-free connection. Ensure the water supply is turned off before beginning installation.

Installation Steps:

  1. Remove your existing showerhead by turning it counter-clockwise.
  2. Clean any debris from the shower arm threads.
  3. Wrap plumber's tape clockwise around the threads of the shower arm.
  4. Thread the new DELTA showerhead onto the shower arm by turning it clockwise until hand-tight.
  5. Use a wrench to tighten an additional quarter turn, being careful not to overtighten.
  6. Turn on the water supply and check for leaks.

  • H2Okinetic PowerDrench Spray: Creates powerful water patterns for an energizing experience, designed to provide more coverage and intensity.
  • H2Okinetic UltraSoak Spray: Mimics the sensation of dense natural rainfall, offering an intensely saturating and soothing shower.
  • Additional settings provide variations in spray intensity and coverage to suit individual preferences.

4. Maintenance

To maintain the appearance and performance of your DELTA showerhead, regular cleaning is recommended. The Lumicoat Finishes are designed for easy maintenance.

Cleaning Instructions:

  • The Lumicoat Finishes allow for easy wiping clean and are guaranteed to resist mineral buildup and hard water stains on the product’s most commonly touched areas.
  • For general cleaning, use a soft cloth and mild soap and water. Avoid abrasive cleaners, harsh chemicals, or scouring pads, as these can damage the finish.
  • Periodically inspect the spray nozzles for any mineral deposits. The Touch-Clean nozzles can often be cleared by gently rubbing them with your finger.

5. Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues with your DELTA showerhead, consider the following common troubleshooting steps:

  • Low Water Pressure: Check if the showerhead nozzles are clogged with mineral deposits. Clean them as described in the Maintenance section. Ensure your home's main water supply valve is fully open.
  • Leaking: Verify that the showerhead is securely tightened to the shower arm and that plumber's tape was applied correctly. If leaking persists, the washer inside the connection may need replacement.
  • Difficulty Changing Spray Settings: Ensure the spray selector dial is free of debris. Gently rotate the dial to cycle through settings.

For persistent issues, please refer to the Warranty and Support section for further assistance.
