Use white vinegar in a large freezer bag with the head attached. Use a sturdy rubber band to secure it on the pipe. Worked perfectly and environmental friendly

I’ll have to try this. My friend has a rain showerhead, which I hate! I once tried putting vinegar in a garbage bag to hang on the showerhead. But I’m too short (even with a stepladder) and not strong enough to tie the bag around the showerhead. I’ll try a freezer bag. Thank you!

I have to say you had me at the nipple joke and I was a tiny bit heartbroken upon seeing the wedding ring. Thanks for the fun and informative video

All good except...instead of buying expensive limescale remover, just put the shower head in a small skillet (just bigger than the shower head) and pour some vinegar down the shower head inlet until the shower head is covered. Let it sit for 12-14 hours and rinse.

Thanks for this - on the variable head flow heads there must be a way to take out the disc with the holes in it to clean it? Is there a way? We have Trevi heads and there must surely be a way to take them apart?

The black rubber seal has wire mesh. It is ok to have just the black rubber seal Without the wire mesh? Reason for better water flow rate. Tks

@lesterbathrooms3948 Жыл бұрын

It really depends on your type of shower head. If possible you should check with the manufacturer if it’s still under warranty or if they sell any spare parts online. Thanks 🙏🏻

For best results found that a dental tepe is good for cleaning inside the nipple. Time consuming depending on how big your rain showerhead is!!! Good video, not sure about the end demo result though, water shooting off in all directions 😁

@HeronCoyote1234 4 ай бұрын

For those who’ve never heard of “dental tepe”, it’s a company that sells dental supplies for those of us who have, among other things, implants. Their prices are amazing, btw.

@lesterbathrooms3948 Жыл бұрын

Well if there’s no above (loft/attic) access it must have been installed from below so in theory should be able to be uninstalled from below. The trouble is there are so many different versions on the market all with different installation methods and it may take a lot of effort to take it down. Some have retaining screws, some have springs that you pull down and release, I can’t possibly cover each product. I really hope that you are able to sort out your problem. 🙏🏻

kay, I call foul! If the shower head is sitting doing nothing, your not gonna have all the junk around the sink, its still gonna be in the head. There was no little fairy in the sink with a brush scrubbing the inside of the shower head with enough force to get junk to the outside.
