Found this video to be helpful. I know it's supposed to be easy, but for someone who isn't handy at all, I was nervous changing my own showerhead. This video gives me the confidence that I can do it myself. Thank you!

Thank you sooo much for this…plumber’s tape, yes! ☺️👍🏽

This is the best thing I’ve watched today .

What can you do if the plumber's tape won't let you take off the shower head? I could not get my shower head off, even tried spray lubricant to get the shower head loose. Would love to see how to change all the fixtures in a shower: knobs, faucet, etc. What should I look for in a new set?

I’m going to try this because I have to pay for everything I get done around my house. I needed this thank you!

Seems pretty easy. I’ve been wanting my husband to change ours, but he work a lot. I may surprise him by changing ours out myself.

If i changed the shower head and it's leaking between the pipe and the shower head does that mean I need to tighten it more?

Wow! Great video. I’ve always hired a handyman to replace my shower heads but now I’m thinking maybe I can just do it myself(?)

Do we need to shut off the main water first ???

[stephenmurphy]

Anybody can do that, but what if you have a different pipe coming out of the wall I guess I’m gonna have to cut and tap it.

[joeysimply]

So you don’t have to turn off the water first ?

Просто купите нормальную душевую систему в китайских маркет плейсах. Зачем держаться за эту устаревшую систему?

A towel to cover the drain? Really? Just use a plastic Tote.
