4.2 Cleaning Anti-Clog Nozzles:

The shower head is equipped with anti-clog nozzles designed to prevent lime and hard water buildup. If you notice any mineral deposits or reduced water flow from specific nozzles, gently rub the rubber nozzles with your finger or a soft brush to dislodge any buildup.

5. Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues with your MakeFit Filtered Shower Head, please refer to the following common solutions:

• Low Water Pressure:
  • Check if the filter cartridge needs replacement. A clogged filter can restrict water flow.
  • Ensure the shower head is fully tightened and properly sealed to prevent pressure loss.
  • Clean any mineral buildup from the nozzles as described in the Maintenance section.
• Leaks at Connection Point:
  • Ensure the shower head is securely hand-tightened onto the shower arm.
  • Verify that enough Teflon tape was applied to the shower arm threads during installation. Reapply if necessary.
  • Check that the rubber washer is correctly seated inside the shower head connection. Use the extra rubber washer if the original is damaged.
• Water Quality Issues (e.g., odor, dry skin):
  • The filter cartridge may have reached the end of its lifespan. Replace the filter cartridge.
