2. Instructions d'installation
This shower head is designed for straightforward installation, typically requiring no special tools and taking less than 20 minutes. Ensure the water supply to your shower is turned off before beginning installation. While the product is specified for ceiling mounting, the general steps for connecting a shower head to a threaded pipe are similar.
2.1 Outils nécessaires (non inclus)
- Clé à molette
- Plumber's tape (thread seal tape)
- Chiffon doux
2.2 Installation étape par étape
- Préparer le bras de douche : Remove your existing shower head by turning it counter-clockwise. Clean any old plumber's tape or residue from the shower arm threads.
- Appliquer du ruban téflonné : Enroulez du ruban d'étanchéité pour plombier dans le sens des aiguilles d'une montre autour du filetage du bras de douche, 3 à 4 fois. Cela permet de créer un joint étanche.
- Fixez le nouveau pommeau de douche : Thread the new Delta shower head onto the shower arm by turning it clockwise. Hand-tighten until snug.
- Serrage final : Use an adjustable wrench to tighten the shower head an additional quarter to half turn. Do not overtighten, as this can damage the threads. Use a soft cloth between the wrench and the shower head to protect the finish.
- Vérifiez les fuites : Ouvrez l'arrivée d'eau et vérifiez l'étanchéité du raccord. En cas de fuite, resserrez légèrement le raccord ou appliquez à nouveau du ruban d'étanchéité.
