What handheld set to replace fixed shower head?

Just moved in to a new apartment with the grossest shower ever - I want to replace it but have to order online because of my schedule! Any advise on what I should replace with would be appreciated!

Hi @alanaholdford,

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community, it is fabulous to have you join us.

You would have to look at a standalone showerhead with no rail and there doesn't seem to be much space between the pipe connection and the ceiling, so we'll have to factor that in.

I'd suggest one of the following options -

• Flexispray 5 Function Pulsar Hand Shower WELS 3 Star Rated 9L/min
   
• Brasshards Chrome All Directional Shower Rose WELS 3 Star 8L/min
   
• Estilo Chrome 1 Function Shower Ball Joint WELS 3 Star 9L/min
   
• Flexispray Bermuda 3 Function Hi Rise Shower WELS 3 Star 9L/min
   

Let me know what you think and if you have further questions, please don't hesitate to ask.

Thank you!! Do you think I will need to replace the connection to wall as it’s rusty? Or will I risk messing up more

Hi @alanaholdford,

The rusty part is a cover flange that came with the old shower head and should be removed when replacing the unit. Each of the products Eric suggested above comes with a new cover flange to suit them—no need to purchase separately.

Please let me know if you have any questions.
