First, make sure that your shower has completely stopped running and the shower area is completely dry. This will help to prevent any slipping, which can lead to serious injury, and will also help you to get a better grip on the parts you're working with. While you're at it, check your washer's dial settings—if it's set too low, that could also be contributing to the problem.

Gather the tools you'll need


You will need to have the following tools on hand before you can begin your task: the shower hose holder, an adjustable wrench, the old shower hose, and your new shower hose. You may also want to have some duschslang nearby or a bathmat that won't get stained by water on the floor. 
You will begin by using the adjustable wrench to remove the old shower hose from its connection point. Be sure not to use too much force here since this could result in it breaking. Once removed, check for any clogs and make sure there are no kinks before moving on with replacing it with your new one.

How to Shut Off the Water to a Fixture or Your House

Turn off the water in the shower


1. Unscrew the hose from the shower head and detach it from the valve by unscrewing. 2. Take your new replacement hose and screw it onto the shower head, then tighten it with pliers. 3. Attach the hose back onto the valve, making sure you have a tight grip while tightening with pliers so it doesn't come off again! 4. Turn on the water supply, check for duschslang 3 meter and test out your shower head! 5. When finished testing, turn off the water supply 6. Make sure that all parts are dry before removing them from their places

Install the new hose


1. First, remove the old hose by unscrewing the nut at the end of the shower arm. 
2. Next, hold on to both ends of the new fitting shower hose and slide it over the arm until it's secure. 
3. Then screw on one side of the connector using a wrench or pliers then tighten it with your fingers. Repeat with another side. 
4. Turn on the water supply, watch for leaks and adjust if necessary before use!

Test for leaks


To test for leaks, you will need to fill the shower head with water. If the water sprays at all while filling, that means there is an issue with the valve and it will need to be replaced. It's also important to check your shower hose for any signs of leakage. A triton shower hose can help maintain your water pressure and last longer than other models on the market.
