The suction cups on my oil rubbed bronze soap dish are no longer tight enough to sick to the wall of my shower. it's been fine for over two years until now. can you buy new suction pieces or do i have toreplace the whole thing?

U don't remove the plastic u stick them hole shower head down in vinegar and let it sit for a while, that will clean it out

Sounds like the bearings might be binding up after they warm up. If this is like the one I have (and many others) there are sintered bronze bushings used for the bearings on the beam. These are a porous bronze material made by squeezing together tiny bronze particles. The idea is that you soak the bushings in oil once in a while, so there is a contiunously availble little bit of oil. They come with little plastic cups that you fill with oil and snap over the bushings and let sit for a day. You have to do this once every several years. You can do it without the cups buy flipping it on it's side, using a little masking tape or playdough to make a dam and putting a puddle of oil there, doing one side at a time. But you can first confirm if this is the problem by moving the beam up and down by hand when it's cold, and then once it starts to vibrate (when it's hot) turn it off and try it manually again - if the bushings are getting tight, you will feel the difference. Good luck.

It doesn't really make a lot of difference so long as the surface is waterproof and can be easily cleaned. It comes down to personal preference.

there are two screws, where you push to close the drain

take out those screws , you will find a chain or something similar, that is loose. tight it or conect it back

Remove the handle by loosening the screw near the bottom. You should see a plastic ring, probably green, that is the hot water safety. Adjust it so that the handle will turn further for more hot water. It most likely pulls out, then turn it left, reinsert and reattach the handle.

it should be threaded into the popup assembly.

I have a spare, if you're still looking for [email protected]

no there is not. it is designed the way it is.

Check the manual that came with the unit and it should tell you how to adjust the max temp inside the fixture. Hope this helps!

Make sure you clean and dry the wall that you are sticking the shower head to. It is OK for water to touch the exterior, but not the interior. Also, make sure there is no cracking or degradation of the suction cup. Also, this is posted in the wrong section.
