plumbing issue Bambi 16'

Bambi 2005, 16' The pipe coming out of the bathroom wall connected to the hand shower turns freely, moves in and out slightly and does not seem to be threaded. It will leak slightly when turned on and off. Is this normal or how do I repair?

If it hasn’t done the leaking in the past, it likely isn’t correct. Can you get to the backside of this fixture via the outside or in the bath area. Check the owner manual. In the 22FB a removable panel by the main door allows access to the shower faucet. I think the 16 must have a similar access panel.

If you find a panel, you will likely find a loose connector that can be tightened. Just thinking through the problem based on your description. Since a leak like that could be leaking in the wall - make haste to repair it. Good luck.
