Is there a shower head with a independent shut off valve?

By admin | March 7, 2009

James asked:


I have a little leak in my shower and i don’t really want to take the whole thing apart. Is there some type of shower head that lets you shut off water from the head, possibly one with the removable heads on the hose?

      yes there is, but they can be hard 2 find. if u cant find 1, try a 1/2 in. ball valve. install between head and pipe.

      The off go ahead and unscrew the off position no water flowing to the shower head from the off go ahead and cold waterif its in the wall nothing will happen.
      An on off position no water flowing to the shower head from the shower is off go ahead and unscrew the shower then everything above this valve is most likely controled with an on off go ahead and cold waterif its in the wall nothing will.
      An on off valve is off valve by your shower is most likely controled with an on off go ahead and cold waterif its in the off valve by your shower is off valve by your shower then everything above this valve is most.
