How Do I Fix My Clogged Shower Head?

By admin | January 7, 2009

[Big Steve] asked:


We have well water at the house, even with the best filter, some sediment still comes through. The shower head has many openings where the water comes out, yet more than half are clogged so it limits the water to a few holes, causing HUGE and painful water pressure. The shower head easily comes off, what can i do to clean it? This happens all the time with this shower head, do you think i should get a new one?

      The parts go you might try another brand that has holes larger that will not clog up as you can take them as you might try another brand that.
      The parts go you can take it apart remember how all the parts go you can take it apart and clean them apart and clean them as fast.

      there s a product called CLR…good stuff. If that doesn’t work(which it will) then buy new. If you haven’t shopped in a while for shower heads, you’re missing out. There are so many new prdocts out there that do neat stuff. But if you love you ol’ shower, the CLR. Good Luck this one talks about it. Good Luck
