Questions and Answers
Bossini hand held shower has a leak and cord is broken?
I installed a new barrier free shower. It had a Bossini handled shower factory installed. It leaks around the vacuum valve and now the cord is unraveling. Shower has been used only twice! Can this be fixed? Or does the entire hand held shower need to be replaced. Can the vacuum valve leak be fixed? Is this common?
Use plumbers tape to seal around the vacuum valve after you have tightened the vacuum valve. If this assembly is under warranty and the patch does not work, you will want to contact the warranty provider. Sometimes though in transport of the one unit barrier free showers, the valves can come loose and just need to be tightened or your "O" ring may need to be replaced. You can see in this Youtube Video how to fix and replace the "O" ring.
I only want to replace the o ring where the hand-held shower meets the hose. What tool can I use so I don't damage the shower handle?
See above. Never mind, I'll keep searching, thank you.

Want to change my shower hose but worried bout flooding?
Do I need to turn water off or just go ahead and take off old hose and replace. Been told no need to turn off water. Unless I missed it it didn't mention if water was turned off
