Transom shower head and hose

(1/1)

Anthony:
I have a 2001 Bavaria 40 here in Brisbane Australia.
Probably because of the impact of UV, the transom-mounted handheld shower head and the connecting hose have become brittle and inflexible.
Does anyone know who supplies these?
Thanks in anticipation
Anthony

Sweet As:

Found 3 solutions at Whitworths... for A$170 the complete Shurflo unit ( taps, shower head etc) in a 'box' that rebates into the transom; for A$55 a showerhead and hose... bit of chrome and only 1.5m of non reinforced hose! and thirdly a plastic, no chrome showerhead and 2.1m of reinforced hose for A$25.
Yes folks the last option selected... and it works fine.

BTW, discovered that the originally fitted Shurflo showerhead can be dismantled to replace the O rings when it become dribbly. Using a fine hooked pin, simply pull out the centre part of the spray nozzle. This reveals a small stainless nut and washer which can be undone with an appropriately small tube spanner. The rotatable head is then withdrawn revealing 2 O rings.

Bertybuoy:
go to www.force4.co.uk  They have a very affordable replacement.
