Maintenance
To maintain the appearance and performance of your Kohler Tellin Handshower:
- Cleaning: The MasterClean sprayface is designed to resist mineral buildup. Simply wipe the sprayface with your finger or a soft cloth to remove any deposits.
- Finish Care: The Brushed Nickel finish features ScratchShield technology for enhanced durability and Spot Repel to resist fingerprints, smudges, and water spots. Clean with a soft, damp cloth and avoid abrasive cleaners, solvents, or polishing agents, as these can damage the finish.
- Hose Inspection: Periodically check the 72-inch hose for any signs of wear or damage. Replace if necessary.
Troubleshooting
If you experience issues with your handshower, consider the following common solutions:
- Low Water Pressure: Ensure the main water supply is fully open. Check for any kinks in the hose. The handshower has a 1.75 gpm flow rate, which is standard for water efficiency.
- Leaking Connections: Tighten all connections by hand. If leaks persist, reapply sealant tape to the threads and reassemble.
- Mineral Buildup: If spray nozzles are clogged, gently rub the MasterClean sprayface with your finger or a soft brush to dislodge mineral deposits.
If problems persist, contact Kohler customer support for assistance.
