Hello,
We bought a house last winter. It is 13 years old.
The shower was modernized a few years ago. Probably about 8 years old judging by the silicone. It has been tinkered with twice instead of being completely redone, but whatever...
My concern is about the side nozzles installed in the shower. Only water comes out of the inner holes now. The "ring" seems to be completely calcified.
The nozzles are only attached with an Allen screw and I was able to soak each of them fully for 24 hours in vinegar with ultrasonic support.
Unfortunately, there was no improvement.
Do the nozzles have to be completely disassembled before cleaning? If yes, how?
Can you still get new nozzles that fit on the brass flange in/on the wall?
What is the model or manufacturer called? Unfortunately, my Google searches were unsuccessful.
Knocking open the wall for a new system is not an option for now.
Thanks and regards
Sebastian
