Great video mate, helped me out. I just got a new shower head but it didn't come with any instructions at all. Not too complicated really I just wasn't clear on if I needed that tape or not or if I should remove the washers. When I installed it with the tape I got leaks, watched this and based on what you said removed the tape as mine had the washer and it worked flawlessly.

Great video! I am just having an issue with installing a filter to my Aquasana hand-held version and the wall pipe keeps moving around. I will use that end of the tool like you did to tighten it up. Meanwhile, I still have water leaking from the joint...OMG...will it ever end? I haven tightened it too much and now have to find someone stronger than me to help unwind everything. I found a yellow washer in the wall pipe, which I probably had stuck in there with all the filters that I have changed throughout the years. I guess I should get a new one?

Ironically we got the same exact handheld shower head lol but I’m having some issues, I’ve tried applying the main bracket with and without Teflon tape. And in both cases it still leaks, it leaks less with the Teflon tape though. It only drips a few slow drops, am I doing something wrong? Or should I just leave it? Also your dog is so precious!💚

Our master bathroom has a standing shower with handheld shower head. We started to see some rust spots in the hose not to mention heavy mineral built ups in the shower head because our house has very hard water despite water softener we have. My wife picked out this handheld shower head to replace our old one because she loves the brush nickel finish to match our bathroom decors but this turned out to be very impressive handheld shower head. Although I have replaced shower heads many times in the past, it came with nice instruction on how to replace it for those who's not familiar with it. My only advise would be to use wrench to hold the base spout when removing and installing the holding adapter so you don't accidently twist and damage the base pipe when you over tighten it. I really appreciate that it came with plenty of plumber's tape because you really want to put that on before connecting different parts so that there's no water leak in between threads. This is one of most common mistakes and reasons why there's leak after installing it. Very happy to see that they have provided plumber's tape to remind you to use it! It also had rubber rings/washers in each connector but it also came with extra one, which is nice. They also included a shower drain cover to prevent hair from going in to the drainage, which is a nice bonus. I really love the brush nickel finish, which makes it look elegant and expensive. The 7 different water spray setting is nice to have so you can change it for different purpose. We will most likely leave it on one setting for most of the times but it's nice to have option to change it when needed, such as jet spray for cleaning the shower wall, etc. After replacing the shower head, I didn't see any leak and the stainless steel hose feels sturdy. I also like that I can rotate and tilt the shower head holder and it stays in place. Overall, very happy with this shower head! amzn.to/3gVZIrH

Curious? Will it do any harm to add the teflon tape to the ends that use the rubber gaskets already? Just to be safe. Great video by the way. A to Z instructions. NEVERMIND. LOL You made it clear at the end by saying it's okay to use the teflon if there is a leak so it kind of answered that question too.
