Wall Mount Rain Shower Head – How to Save Time & Money
Do you want a rainfall combo shower system – without having to drill any holes in your bathroom walls? This easy-to-install wall mount rain shower head connects to your existing plumbing, and you can even use your current on/off temperature valve!
Easy Retrofit Install Can Save You Time and Money:
Consequently, you can install this elegant shower system in record time. In fact, you may even be able to complete this bathroom retrofit project yourself.
Due to the strategic design of this slide bar shower, you can simply attach the new shower hardware to your current showerhead water supply pipe. And since the glide rail only extends 25 inches, it typically won’t interfere with any wall valves you have.
In many cases, you won’t need any tools for the job except a wrench and screwdriver. The shower kit comes with the screws and adhesive tape to secure the appliance to the wall.
These Rainshower Kits are Multi-Functional:
Besides the fact that these single wall mount units are so simple to put in, they offer more functionality than a standard rainshower head. I actually like them better.
First of all, the kit includes a 4-function handheld sprayer with a 69-inch long hose. This comes in handy for reaching all body parts, washing pets or quickly rinsing down shower walls.
Second, you can adjust the height of the sprayer on the slide bar. Therefore, you can position it as a lower shower head for kids or rinsing off feet.
Note: You can use the rainshower and handheld wand separately or in combination together.
You can still enjoy a luxurious spa shower in your bathroom without having to go through a complicated, time consuming and costly overhead ceiling mount shower.
Plus, with a retrofit installation, you don’t need to wonder about where a rain shower head should be placed. The head face sits about even with the supply line, and the height cannot be adjusted.
Therefore, for new installations you want the supply line at the height you want the showerhead face. This typically would be slightly above the tallest family member’s head.
Will This Wall-Mounted Rain Showerhead Fit in Your Shower?
Note:This unit may not work with your particular shower set up if you have a low water supply outlet. For instance, if you have tall people in your family the shower head may sit too low.
Alternatively, Moen makes a rainshower-handshower combination that doesn’t include the glide rail. This model doesn’t feature the adjustable-height rail, but you can still enjoy a spa shower experience.
Grohe also makes a retrofit shower system. You can adjust the rain spray as well as pivot the head. However, this unit costs a lot more. Plus, you don’t have the option of a lower water flow rate, os it’s not as water efficient as the Spectra.
