can the shower hose be removed and replaced by a add-on shower rod?

Anything is possible, I don't recommend it though. I returned this product because you could tell the quality is cheap. If I were you, go to a high end plumbing place in or around your neighborhood and ask to see something similar to this. Then when you order this product that is a 1/4 of the price you will see the quality difference. But I don't recommend this product especially that you are going to reconfigure the copper in the walls for this product.

Yes. I have a nine foot hose on mine. Just have to make sure its the right thread size. Just look up shower hose replacement or extender.

Yes, it comes with the hose and hooks onto where it mounts (attaches to the showerhead)...

Not sure you"ll find a brass replacement for this fitting. It's looks pretty custom. And, on mine, the plastic tip of the hose which connects into the fitting is looking more worn than the fitting itself. Mine's still working fine, but I think it's a losing battle to try to make this unit more than it is -- a cheap shower hose extension -- lucky to get a year+ out of...

Nope. different hose adapter. look for the quick release type. Not the screw on.

Yes, this could be the only shower head. Take the existing shower head off and connect the hose.

This fits onto the pipe itself, then the fixed shower head and the handheld hose is attached to it.Hope this helps. Remeber to use any rubber washers enclosed, as well as teflon tape.I love mine.

I don't know. Sorry. It is attached to the area just above the shower head and that is permanent. Then when you want to give your dog a bath,the hose is plugged into that and then removed when you are done. Hopefully someone can give you a better answer.

No you do not have to remove the shower rod. The rings are split and they slip over the rod.

I don't know for a fact, but the shower head is removable, and it seems that a different head of your choice can be installed.I will say that i am very pleased with the shower head that is supplied.Hope this helps, Dan.

You can install it with the rod, or without the rod. The rod length is fixed; it's short.

You install the hose ( parts included )And there is a switch to change from hose to shower head. So yes the hose remains attached unless you want unassembled it every time you use the shower head, which is why they included the handy switch.

No, not easily anyway. The kit is designed to splice into the old hose. One would normally choose a spot a few inches from where the old hose comes out of the base, then cut the old hose at that point, and a small coupling device (supplied in the kit) is then slipped into each end (the cut end of the old hose and the open end of the new hose). Before I ordered the kit I tried to take the base unit apart and wasn't able to do it. I suspect that if you could take the base apart you could probably just slip the new hose onto the same fitting as the old hose uses. Hope this helps!

No special installation is required. Simply remove your existing shower head and screw on directly.

Yes, as long as you already have a threaded connector or existing shower head installed that you are replacing.

I would assume that you would do the same as if it was connected to the shower pipe. Anyway you attach the the shower head after you added Teflon tape to the ball joint assuming it has threads of course and all should be good

Yes, the hose and the hand shower holder are included. The hose is some sort of plastic material. It is reasonably flexible and seems like it will last for ever. I have used the same hose for about a year on another Grohe shower fixture and there is no sign of wear.
