This avoids an abrupt change in the flow of the spray stream immediately below the spray head.

  • the suction duct is designed to be height-adjustable, wherein between the walls of the suction duct opening and the underside of the spray head in each case an air gap is formed. On the one hand, this limits the amount of secondary air flowing in, and on the other hand, the spray head can be accessed unhindered in the event of maintenance.
