5. Care and Maintenance
Regular cleaning and proper maintenance will ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your SunCleanse shower system.
5.1 Cleaning the Shower Heads
The rainfall shower head and handheld shower feature self-cleaning silicone nozzles. Mineral buildup (calcium and lime) can be easily removed by gently wiping the nozzles with your finger or a soft cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the finish.

5.2 Finish Care
To maintain the matte black finish, clean surfaces with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. Rinse thoroughly and dry immediately to prevent water spots. Do not use cleaners containing ammonia, bleach, or abrasive agents.
