Due to the wide usage conditions, we do not specify a fixed lifespan for our products.
We request that all products are used exclusively with municipal tap water.
Therefore, please be aware that using well water or rainwater may cause product malfunctions.
*Please note that use with water sources other than municipal tap water will void the product warranty.
When our products are used with well water or groundwater, algae or moss may form inside the product or hose, which can lead to malfunctions. For this reason, we recommend to use tap water.
*Please note that the usage with any water source other than municipal tap water will void our warranty.
While our products are not designed to leach harmful substances into the water they dispense, they are not certified to food hygiene standards. We do not recommend to drink water.
Nozzle
If you have a nozzle with a connector (one-touch connection), and if you have a connector that matches the hose diameter, it is possible to connect a nozzle with a different compatible hose size.
*The nozzle and hose are directly attached to each other so that some types of nozzles are required a connector (sole separately) depending on the type of nozzle.
When water is shut off with a nozzle instead of a faucet, the hose is subjected to water pressure when the water is shut off. This may cause the hose to swell or burst due to the water pressure.
The nozzle screens have different spray widths depending on their sizes.
Please refer it before purchasing.
■Large Screen
→The splay shapes of this screen is wilder than the one of the Small Screen and it makes the spray force softer.
■Small Screen
→The spray shapes of this screen is more narrow than the Large Screen and it makes the spray force stronger.
«Note»
It is affected by the usage environment and hose inner diameter.
Nozzles and high-pressure washers have different product structures.
Therefore, the Straight water shape from the nozzles cannot provide the same water pressure as a high-pressure washers.
*It depends on the environment of use.
■When water flow is poor for “Shower” or “Joro” water shapes
≪Screen Cleaning Method≫
① Remove the rubber ring (black) at the tip of the spray nozzle and the screen nut (gray).
② Brush the back side of the removed screen with a brush (such as a toothbrush).
*Do not insert objects like needles into the screen holes.
■When water flow is poor for “Straight or Mist” water shape
≪Backflush Cleaning Method≫
① Set the nozzle spray pattern to Straight and ensure the grip is in the water-flow position.
② Directly place the hose over the center of the shower screen and run water to remove any debris inside.
*Some products have different specifications for the nozzle.
The lever part of the nozzle cannot be repaired so that it is not designed to be disassembled.
To prevent freezing damage in winter and protect the product, be sure to turn off the faucet and drain the water from the inside of the product after use.
≪How to drain water≫
After turning off the faucet, set the nozzle to the straight water shape, hold the lever (water flowing through the nozzle), and gently shake the nozzle up and down to drain the water inside the product.
Disconnect the nozzle from the hose to which it is connected to drain the water more firmly.
≪Caution≫
Please note that draining the water does not completely remove the water and does not prevent freezing damage.
Water leakage from the rubber ring (black) at the tip of the nozzle may indicate a loose or detached screen.
If it occurs this symptom, please follow the steps below.
▼Procedure
① Loosen the screen nut on the inside of the rubber ring (black) and remove the screen (the part with holes).
*Some models have an integrated screen nut and screen.
② Align the screen with the tabs on the main body and tighten it clockwise to install.
③ Insert the tip rubber ring (black).
*Installing the screen and rubber ring together may cause them to come loose during water flow.
Even though it is inconvenient, please install each part individually.
*There are different specifications on some nozzle models.
The nozzle body part cannot be disassembled.
Only the screen and connector can be removed.
*There are different specifications on some products.
Parts
The tap adaptor you select depends on the type of faucet, the shape of the spout, and the size.
Please refer to the image below when making your selection.
【 Reference 】
How to choose a tap adaptor?
Our tap adaptors (protruding: male-shaped parts) and connectors (recessed: female-shaped parts) are designed to be compatible with each other.
However, they are not compatible with products from other manufacturers, so there is a risk of issues such as water leakage occurring at the connection points.
Nominal diameter is not the actual diameter size. Please note that it refers to the thread size specification.
For thread size specifications, please refer to the following.
【 Reference 】
-Nominal diameter 13 = G1/2
-Nominal diameter 20 = G3/4
Compared to plastic products, metal products offer superior durability in terms of material properties.
However, metal products, like plastic products, can still suffer freeze damage.
Therefore, for both plastic and metal products, please drain them completely before use and store them in a location where freezing is not a risk during the winter season.
We regret to inform you that we do not carry the splitter parts required to connect two fully automatic laundry machines.
Foreign matter such as sand or soil may have entered the Slide Ring.
If this occurs, please try cleaning it using the procedure below.
▼Cleaning Procedure
Fill a bucket or similar container with water, place the connector inside, and slide the Slide Ring back and forth about 20 times.
The O-ring conforms to the ‘P-12’ specification.
Additionally, we offer the following replacement part.
[Item Code] G097FJ
[Item Name] O-ring P-12 (5-pack) (FJ)
If water leaks from the junction between the hose lock nut and the hose on the connector, check the following connection conditions.
▼Checklist
① Is the hose Lock Nut loose?
② Is the hose inserted fully?
③ Is the direction of the Claw Ring reversed? (Insert the hose into the Claw Ring from the narrow end.)
*Some products feature an integrated hose Lock Nut and Claw Ring.
The connector may not be fully inserted.
When connecting, ensure the connector is fully seated without any wobble.
If water leaks from the top of the tap adaptor despite proper installation on a compatible faucet, insufficient insertion into the faucet spout may be the cause.
≪Installation Method≫
- Ensure the tap adaptor is inserted approximately 1 cm deep into the rubber gasket hole.
- Although the gasket hole is small, wetting it with water and inserting the faucet spout deeply makes it slippery and easier to insert.
Alternatively, warming the tap adaptor in water around 40°C (104°F) will soften the rubber, making insertion easier.
If water leakage persists even after following the above steps, the faucet spout’s outlet pipe may be damaged or deformed.
Particularly for faucet spouts that originally came with a nipple (secured by three screws), deformation is possible, so please check carefully.
Before installation, please verify that the faucet is compatible.
≪Installation Method≫
Please insert the faucet’s water outlet pipe into the tap adaptor approximately 1 cm deep.
With the pipe fully inserted, tighten the three screws evenly.
*Warming the rubber gasket inside the tap adaptor with lukewarm water (around 40°C) will make insertion easier.
*Overtightening the included screws may cause scratches or deformation to the water outlet pipe. Please be careful.
Please select the connector based on the inner and outer diameters of the hose you will be using.
