Installing the shower rack on a tiled concrete base
Place the shower rack on the planned installation location and mark the drilling holes with a marker.
Drill a hole in the wall using a drill. To prevent the drill from slipping on the smooth surface of the ceramic, you can use ordinary masking tape at the beginning of the drilling.
At the initial stage of drilling, set the drill to the minimum number of revolutions. The revolutions can be increased after the tool enters the tile at least a little.
When you have drilled through the tile, and the tool's cutting edge reaches the concrete or brick surface, replace the ceramic drill with a more suitable one.
Use a hammer drill when working on brick surfaces.
Insert the anchor into the holes using the hammer and attach the shower rack to the wall.
Do not forget to use sealing elements at the pipe joints. Use an adjustable wrench and pliers to tighten the connection securely.
Installing a shower hose
Mark out the hand shower holder so that the length of the hose from the mixer to the hand shower holder is sufficient.
Drill a hole in the wall.
Fasten the retainer.
Using the sealing elements, connect the shower hose to the mixer tap and showerhead.
Installing wall-mounted showerhead
Install the showerhead pipe into the water outlet in the wall. Use sealing materials.
