Cool Shower Head

About Cool Shower Head Android App

Enjoying a relaxing, comfortable shower is a guiltless pleasure. And with a growing family, it can be your few precious private moments alone before a busy day.

1. Choose a handheld shower head.

While fixed shower heads that are mounted to the wall may give a sleek designer look to a shower, they can be much more difficult to repair than handheld models and also lack many advantages. A handheld shower head can be mounted in a cradle to operate like a fixed shower head or removed for more convenience for children and seniors. Additionally, cleaning the tub, cleaning items in the tub, or washing pets is much easier with a handheld shower head. Be sure to pick one with a durable, high-quality hose that can stand up to water pressure without blowing out and will endure daily use without kinking or wearing down.

2. Find a shower head with flow options that fit your preference.

Shower heads are available to fit any partiality in regards to water flow and pressure.

If saving water is your top priority, low flow shower heads are available that can save a half gallon of water every minute- or about ten gallons of water during a 20-minute shower. Cut-off valves can turn the water off while you're soaping up to save even more water.

If you live in a home where you risk being scalded by hot water if a toilet is flushed or a faucet turns on, be sure to install an anti scald adapter or pressure balance valve.

3. Pick a shower head that's built to last.

Brass shower heads are generally considered the best for a remodeled but they're also much more expensive than other models. Whether you choose a shower head made of brass or of some other metal, check to ensure that it's easy to upkeep and will not tarnish.

If you pick a plastic model, be sure to purchase one that's resistant to lime buildup so it will not easily clog your shower head. No matter which shower head you choose, however, it will eventually develop lime accumulation.

4. Add a shower head water filter to your bathroom shower.

Your shower water comes from the same source as your tap water. During a typical shower, you take in about one cup of unfiltered water and immerse every surface of your body in heated tap water. Any dirt, lime, chemicals, or impurities found in your well water will also be present in your shower. If there's chlorine in the water, it will both dry out and change the color of your nails, skin and hair. Chlorine will also strip the natural oils from your skin and will possibly cause mild skin and eye irritation. Heavy minerals will weigh down hair, and a variety of other health and beauty related effects can occur. Installing a proper shower filter can remove up to 98% of these materials, and because they only need replacement every 6 months or 10,000 gallons, they require minimal personal maintenance.
