# How do I install my ShowerStar on a flexible pipe?

Installing your ShowerStar on a flexible pipe is quick and easy. You won't need any tools or a plumber, just the zip ties included in your box.

If you'd like to watch a video instruction, please click[ShowerStar Installation (Flexible Pipe)](https://vimeo.com/1085674927?fl=pl&fe=sh).

## **Installation Steps**

**1. Prepare the mounting cradle** Select the correct cradle for your shower type. Hold the cradle so the rounded end points down and the flat end faces up.

**2. Insert the zip ties** Feed the first zip tie into the upper slot on the mounting cradle. Then, insert the second zip tie into the lower slot.

**3. Position and secure** Place the cradle against the flexible pipe. Wrap both zip ties around the pipe, then insert the pointed end of each tie into its head, one at a time.

**4. Tighten to fix in place** Pull (ratchet) both zip ties tight. This ensures the mounting cradle is properly fixed and will not slide along the pipe when the shower is running.

**Tip:** Ensure the fit is snug so the device doesn't move during use.
