GROHE Relexaflex Metal Long-Life 79″ Shower Hose 28145001

Description

The GROHE Relexaflex shower hose 28145001 sets a new benchmark for durability in Canadian hand shower installations. GROHE Relexaflex Metal Long-Life Universal Shower Hose 28145001  distinguishes itself with a fully metal casing and GROHE’s proprietary StarLight chrome finish — a multi-layer coating that resists scratches, tarnish, and limescale buildup across the lifespan of the product. At 79 inches (2,000 mm), this is one of the longest standard hoses in the GROHE catalogue, making it an ideal choice for barrier-free showers, walk-in configurations, and taller users who need a full, unrestricted range of movement. The 28145001 is engineered in Germany to exacting GROHE tolerances and carries certifications valid for Canadian plumbing codes.

The GROHE Relexaflex shower hose achieves a tensile strength of 750 N — roughly fifteen times the 50 N rating typical of polymer-wrapped or hybrid hoses — so it withstands the daily pulling, twisting, and extending that hand shower use demands. Pressure resistance is rated to 16 bar (232 psi), which comfortably covers the full operating range of Canadian residential water supply systems, including high-pressure well systems. Heat resistance reaches 75°C (167°F), keeping the hose stable and flexible even when paired with thermostatic shower valves set to maximum output temperatures. The AntiFold construction reinforces both connection ends to prevent kinking — a common failure point on standard hoses — while the flexible metal body coils naturally after use without creasing or deforming. StarLight chrome wipes clean with a damp cloth: soap scum, hard-water mineral deposits, and bathroom cleaning agents wipe away without abrasive scrubbing. GROHE’s long-life rating for the 28145001 is based on cycle testing well above typical residential replacement intervals, meaning most users will not need to replace this hose for the life of their shower system.

GROHE Relexaflex Shower Hose 28145001 — Installation & Compatibility

<p>Both ends of the 28145001 are fitted with G 1/2″ female threads — the universal standard used across the GROHE hand shower and slide bar lineup and compatible with virtually all third-party hand showers sold in Canada. The GROHE Relexaflex shower hose connects directly to GROHE Euphoria, Tempesta, Rainshower, Vitalio, and Trigger Spray hand shower series without adapters. It also pairs with GROHE Rainshower Stick, Euphoria Cube, and Tempesta slide bar systems. Net weight is 0.5 kg (1.1 lb), light enough that no additional load is placed on wall-mounted slide bar brackets or wall unions. The hose ships ready to install with no additional hardware, no thread sealant tape required for standard connections, and no special tools beyond a wrench for snugging the end fittings. The 2,000 mm length gives plumbers and DIY installers enough slack to mount the slide bar at any height on a standard 2,400 mm shower wall while maintaining a clean drape. Canadian plumbing code compliance is confirmed through cUPC listing, and the hose meets NSF/ANSI 61 requirements for drinking-water contact surfaces — an important detail in showers where hose materials can leach into the water stream.
