How can you “fix” a shower head that’s too low?

SoCalLizzie asked:
I just moved into a new apartment. I brought the wonderful shower head from my last place with me - one of those rainfall ones. The problem is that the shower arm comes out of the wall at about my head level (and I’m 5′ 2″). Since I’m renting, I really don’t want to replace the pipe that goes into the wall for fear of totally jacking it up. The shower head came with one of those S pipes, but all that really does is make the head come out further from the wall - it doesn’t make it any taller. Any suggestions? Are there special pipes you can buy to bring the ding dang head up higher? I practically ripped the stupid shower pipe out of the wall last night in frustration.

The chrome pipe is tapered pipe then screw on an elbow to come back straight up at the wall and attach the chrome pipe to come back straight out of galvanized black or brass pipe thats coming out and another piece of pipe thread so you can unscrew the top use another piece of pipe is short piece of pipe.

Before you get any further into this, you should install it where it is now just to see if you are happy with the pressure. If you have 1/2 inch supply line or 3/8″ the pressure from that big shower head will probably be very poor. The water may not even come out of all the holes. Good luck.

All you have to do is to by a shower extension arm, like this one:=@@@@0192051869.1166724593@@@@&BV_EngineID=ccgcaddjjjmhekhcgelceffdfgidgll.0&CNTTYPE=PROD_META&CNTKEY=misc/searchResults.jsp&MID=9876&N=2984+8992&pos=n08
This particular one will add 9″ without changing pressure. Pretty easy to install, and uses standard shower heads.
