1. Firstly, carefully read the installation manual for the showerhead;
2. Measure the dimensions left, right, up, and down to determine position for installing the showerhead;
3. Based on the specific height, mark the appropriate height for installing the showerhead on the wall;
4. Drill holes on the wall according to the marked positions;
5. Tighten the circular bottom cover of the accessory to the wall with screws to ensure proper tightening to prevent the showerhead from falling off during future use;
6. Install the showerhead pole onto the wall, first stabilize the fixing point on top, and then fix the position below;
7. After ensuring that all the internal angle screws of the fixed points are tightened, make detailed adjustments;
8. Tighten the hose of the showerhead and install the handheld showerhead.

Precautions for installation of showerhead:
(1) Determine the installation height of the showerhead. Showers are mainly divided into concealed showerheads and exposed showerheads. The installation height of the concealed showerhead should be 2.1 meters from the center of the buried water outlet on the wall to the ground, and the center of the shower switch should be as close to 1.1 meters from the ground as possible. Surface mounted showerheads are generally defined by the water outlet surface of the showerhead, and the installation height of the showerhead should be as high as 2 meters from the ground. It can be adjusted according to the height of family members during actual installation.
(2) Protect hardware such as faucets. When tightening the faucet, you can wrap a thick cloth or plastic film around the screw cap of the faucet to prevent it from being scratched by a wrench.
(3) Pay attention to the internal structure of the wall. Before installation, the location of waterways and circuits can be marked on the wall to avoid breaking the water pipes during drilling.
(4) Determine the hole spacing and height of hot and cold water. The center hole distance for hot and cold water in shower faucets on the general market is 15 centimeters, and there are two S-joints inside. The distance can be adjusted appropriately, with an error of no more than 1 centimeter.
Precautions for concealed showerheads:
(1) It is necessary to embed the showerhead during the water and electricity renovation, that is, to purchase the showerhead and deliver it to the decoration site before the water and electricity renovation construction.
(2) Concealed installation should be carried out according to the instructions, and some concealed showerheads may have special requirements.
(3) Because the valve core of the faucet needs to be buried in the wall, attention should be paid to the thickness of the bathroom wall. It is not advisable to choose a place where the wall is too thin to embed the valve core, as it cannot be well pre embedded. When burying the valve core, be careful not to remove the protective cover of the valve core to protect the faucet valve core. When pre embedding, also pay attention to the direction of the valve core up, down, left, and right to avoid misplacement.
(4) It is necessary to waterproof the bottom of the slotted part to prevent leakage or condensation of water in the pre embedded part of the showerhead, which may affect the wall.
