Shower Hoses

Dear All

Thank you for your help on other matters here is my latest question.

The shower hose casings aboard Nakesa are breaking and as the connections are much smaller than domestic items I wondered whether anyone has found a source of spares.

 

I am not sure whether these are original fittings but if anyone can help I would much appreciate it..as I am beginning to smell bad!!

 

Thank you

Yes, indeed they are smaller than standard bathroom hoses but they can be found. In my case, when I needed to change them, I had to do some search but at the end I found them in a store that sells caravan supplies. Of course some chandlers have them too.
In conclusion: do not give up, it is a bit harder but they can be still found.
As a last resort if you do not live close, you may order them from the Swedish Hallberg-Rassy internet chandler:

I would suggest the supplier was Grohe, but do not know if they still have the same parts.

Kind regards

Graham,

I replaced one of ours last year, so they do exists. 

Could it be one of these: http://www.norfolkmarine.co.uk/shop-online/plumbing-general-plumbing-fittings-c-1041_1268_1269.html?osCsid=d21fbde74004c1760dedf74c73b45bff

Alternatively the bottom of this page. http://www.penguineng.com/tapsshowers.html

If you figure out which size they are, please let me know as I need to replace the other this year and it took my two goes to get the right one last time!

All the best

Adrian
