1. Choose a suitable installation location
Consider the height: The height of the overhead shower mixing valve from the ground should generally be controlled at about 90~100cm, but the specific height can be fine-tuned according to personal height and usage habits.
Consider the angle: Make sure that the angle of the shower installation allows the water flow to evenly cover all parts of the body.
2. Prepare tools and materials
Tools: electric drill, screwdriver, wrench, level ruler, plumb line, etc.
Materials: waterproof tape, screws, brackets, installation accessories, etc.
3. Preparatory work before installation
Check the water pipe: Make sure the water pipe is intact and matches the caliber of the shower.
Clean the area: Clean the installation area to ensure that the wall is flat, clean and free of debris.
4. Installation steps
Mark the installation point: Use a level ruler and plumb line to mark the installation point of the shower on the wall.
Drilling and fixing: Use an electric drill and adapter to drill holes at the marked location. Fix the bracket or mounting base to the wall to ensure it is firm.
Connect the water pipe: Connect the water pipe of the shower head to the water pipe in the wall to ensure a tight connection. Use waterproof tape to wrap the connection to prevent water leakage.
Install the shower head: Connect the shower head to the water pipe to ensure a firm connection. Adjust the angle and height of the shower head as needed.
Test: Turn on the water source and check the working status and water flow of the shower to ensure normal operation without water leakage.
5. Precautions
Safety: During the installation process, always make sure that the power is turned off to avoid the risk of electric shock.
Waterproof: Use waterproof materials such as waterproof tape to ensure that the connection does not leak.
Maintenance: After the installation is completed, regularly check the shower head and the connection for leaks or looseness, and repair or replace them in time.
6. Additional suggestions
Reserve a location: When laying the pipe, reserve the installation location of the shower head to ensure a smooth installation.
Consider the aesthetics: The installation location of the shower head should consider the aesthetics of the overall bathroom and try to make it coordinated with the decoration style of the bathroom.
