Shower Head Styles and What they do Best
A quick and easy way to update your bathroom.
You have a lot of choices when it comes to choosing a shower head for your bathroom and the one you choose can set the tone for the entire room. Different shower heads have different benefits and perks, and choosing the best one is a matter of preference.
Many of these shower heads you can install yourself, but some will require you to contact a plumber on Long Island for help adding them to your shower.
Traditional and Low Flow Shower Heads

Traditional shower heads are those models we’ve all seen and used. They create a normal flow of water and are attached to the wall or ceiling of your shower. There are also low-flow models that are good for the environment and can even help you decrease your water bills.
Handheld Shower Heads

Handheld shower heads are mounted on the wall, but include a long tube that connects between the wall and the shower head, so you can remove the head from its attachment and move it around the shower. This is a good fit if you are looking for something that gives you more flexibility than traditional shower heads.
Adjustable Height Shower Heads
This is the perfect solution for a shared bathroom where kids need to shower. These shower heads include a pole that is attached to the wall, which you can slide the head up and down on, adjusting its height.
Massage Shower Heads
Massage shower heads are a very popular choice and are a great way to add some luxury to your bathroom. Every model has different features, but they all have settings you can adjust so that the water is emitted in different flows and at different pressures to massage your back and shoulders.
Rainfall Shower Heads
Installing a rainfall shower head is another easy way to take your bathroom up a notch. These shower heads are attached to your shower wall or ceiling and provide a stream of water that is constant and comes from several holes in the shower head. When you use one of these, you’ll feel like you are standing in the rain and experience a calming shower.
Body Spray Shower Heads
Body spray shower heads are installed along your shower walls and add streams of water that cross over your body as you shower. These are used in conjunction with a shower head high on the wall or on the ceiling. This can be the ultimate shower set up that allows you to turn your bathroom into an at-home spa.
