How to Choose the Best Shower Head

• Fixed Shower Heads By Raigu

• Raigu fixed shower head is mounted directly to the shower wall or ceiling. You can mount some fixed shower heads on an arm or bar so you can adjust the height. Fixed shower heads are smaller in size and minimal in style making them an easy fit in most bathrooms. They are also easy to replace, even if you are renting, and an inexpensive upgrade if you don’t have a big makeover budget.

• Handheld Shower Heads By Raigu
  

• Raigu handheld shower head is connected to the wall with a flexible hose, allowing a range of motion. Handheld shower heads with a hose often have a fixed-mount bracket, but the long hose is useful for bathing children and pets and makes cleaning the shower and tub easier.

• Rain Shower Heads By Raigu
  

• Rainfall or waterfall shower heads are typically mounted on the ceiling but there are wall-mounted versions too. Rainfall shower heads are larger than other shower heads but offer more coverage and a calming, rainfall effect. Installing rain shower heads are an inexpensive way to create a spa-like experience every time you shower.
  

• 

• Dual Shower Heads By Raigu
  

• If you can’t decide whether a fixed or handheld shower head is best, consider a dual shower head, with one of each. A combo shower head or a two-in-one unit is where the handheld unit attaches to a fixed shower head. A dual shower head gives you the flexibility to personalize your shower experience by alternating between the fixed and handheld shower heads.

• Mounting Types
  

• There are two different ways to mount a shower head — via the wall or the ceiling. Wall mount shower heads are the most popular type. Depending on what you purchase, you can adjust some shower heads using an arm or a sliding bar. You can mount a rain shower head on the wall using a shower arm. If you have a ceiling-mounted shower head, consider upgrading to a rain shower for a luxurious experience.

• Spray Patterns
  

• For the most flexibility, look for a unit in with an adjustable spray pattern. Most shower heads offer three different spray patterns including:

  • A wide coverage angle that feels like rain and is ideal for kids and rinsing soap off your body.
  • A drenching spray pattern that's good for rinsing heavy suds.
  • A targeted pattern producing a sharp spray that's ideal for massaging sore muscles.

• Shower Heads with Water and Energy Saving Features

  For energy savings, look for shower heads with a WaterSense® label to save water and money. These low-flow shower heads use less water than a standard model. Some shower heads also come with a cut-off valve that allows you to stop the flow of water while bathing, which reduces the amount of water used in every shower.
  
  

• Shower Heads and Water Pressure

  If you're not getting the strong water pressure that you normally expect from your shower, the root of the problem could be a number of reasons. The problem could lie in a faulty water pressure regulator, a leak in the shower head, a build up of mineral deposits or heavy simultaneous water demand in the household.

  There are ways to deal with low water pressure. Probably one of the best shower heads for shower pressure may be the shower heads with high pressure that are designed to deliver pressurized water even if the normal flow is low pressure. Some rain shower heads are designed to provide a high-pressure experience, as well, while aerating shower heads, which have larger water droplets, give the feel of higher water pressure.
