5. Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and longevity of your Veken shower system.
Cleaning the Shower Heads
- To prevent mineral buildup and maintain water flow, regularly wipe the silicone nozzles on both shower heads.
- For stubborn mineral deposits, use a soft cloth dampened with a solution of white vinegar and water. Avoid abrasive cleaners or brushes, which can damage the finish.
- The shower heads feature innovative anti-clog nozzles designed to resist mineral buildup and ensure consistent water pressure.
