Types of Showerheads
Many homeowners are not aware of it, but there are many, many showerhead options and types on the market. Here are some of the types of showerheads available on the market:
- Fixed Showerheads
Fixed, or wall-mounted, showerheads are the standard showerhead commonly seen in many homes. These are attached to the wall, and some don’t have options for spray patterns. However, these are the most affordable type and easiest to install.
- Handheld Showerheads
Handheld showerheads are more versatile compared to wall-mounted ones. This type commonly has spray pattern options and can be removed from the wall, making it more reliable for homeowners with children and pets. However, this can be more pricey compared to fixed showerheads.
- Rain Showerheads
Rain, or ceiling, showerheads are the most in-trend showerhead option on the market. This is known for covering a large surface of your body, like taking a shower in the rain. However, this type is notorious for having low water pressure.
- Dual Showerheads
If you can’t seem to decide between handheld and rain or fixed showerheads, then dual may be for you. This is a shower system with multiple showerheads, operated with a turn of a lever. Allowing you to have a combination of stream types and different angles. However, this is typically not recommended for small shower areas, and is more expensive than your commonly known showerheads.
If you still can’t decide on what you want for your bathroom, we suggest that you bring your old showerhead to the store and ask for a similar o different one!
