Re: Rusty shower hose? 5Jan 10, 2013 10:53 am I never had a metal one rust. The cheaper ones rust. What brand is it? Fortunately replacements are cheap. Maybe get a metal look plastic one.

Re: Rusty shower hose? 7Jan 10, 2013 3:26 pm We are living with my parents at the moment, their house is 13 months old, and I've noticed that bar that the hand-held showerhead is on has rusted where it you clamp it. Not the hose itself though. When we chose our showerheads (not Dorf), the ones on the bar/rail had a much longer warranty than just the hand-held showerheads (which only had a year), so perhaps yours will still be covered? 1st build: viewtopic.php?f=31&t=59376 *New*-2nd build: viewtopic.php?f=31&t=70324&p=1154282#p1154282 Re: Rusty shower hose? 8Jan 10, 2013 3:31 pm I hope so - the supplier said they will contact Caroma and if it's still under warranty they will replace - fingers crossed!
