Step-by-Step Guide
Before starting the process of changing your shower head, ensure that you have the tools required, including an adjustable wrench or pliers, plumbers’ tape, a new shower head and a towel. Next, turn off the water supply to the shower and remove the old shower head by unscrewing it. Prepare the new shower head by wrapping plumbers tape around the threads to create an airtight seal, then insert it into the shower arm and tighten it with the wrench. Be sure not to over-tighten as this can cause leaks.
Top tips include cleaning the shower arm threads with a toothbrush or rag to prevent leaks and using safety goggles to protect your eyes as water may come out during the process.
