Low Pressure Shower Head Fix

On sale Shower System

If you find yourself having low water pressure in the shower, there are a number of simple solutions to bring back strong and consistent flow. A very common cause is when the shower head becomes clogged from mineral deposits from hard water. Soaking the shower head in a vinegar solution for several hours will dissolve deposits and enhance flow. Another potential issue is a partly closed shut-off valve or obstructed water supply line. Testing and complete opening of the main and shower valves will typically correct pressure problems. Restrictive older or flow restrictors in the shower head can also reduce pressure. They can be taken out or substituted with a high-flow type without sacrificing water efficiency standards. In case the problem persists, inspection of plumbing lines for clogs or leaks may be necessary. In other instances, replacing with a specially made low-pressure shower head can maximize water distribution even in naturally low-flowing homes. Proper maintenance and the right shower head can make a big difference in pressure, providing a refreshing and enjoyable shower experience.
