Cleaning a Removable Shower Head:
- Remove and Rinse:
- Take the shower head off the mount.
- Hold it upside down under running water so that the water jets through the holes, dislodging surface deposits.
- Soak in Vinegar:
- Submerge the shower head in a container filled with vinegar.
- Let it soak overnight to break down stubborn limescale.
- Scrub and Rinse Again:
- After soaking, scrub the shower head with a toothbrush to remove any remaining buildup.
- Rinse thoroughly under running water.
Final Steps:
After cleaning, reinstall the shower head if it’s removable. Turn on the water and check the pressure. You should notice improved water flow now that the holes are clear.
Why Vinegar Works:
Vinegar is effective because its acidity breaks down mineral deposits, such as limescale, which are the primary cause of clogged shower head holes. Regular maintenance using vinegar helps prevent buildup and maintains consistent water pressure.
By following these simple steps, you can easily unclog your shower head and restore the enjoyable experience of a strong, steady water flow during showers.
