Hand Showers

A hand-held shower gives you flexibility that a fixed shower head cannot. You can direct the water where you want it, which makes rinsing, washing hair and cleaning the shower itself much easier. 

Hand-held showers suit many people. They help children, pets and anyone who prefers to sit while showering. They are also handy for cleaning the shower and bath. Many sit on a rail, so you can adjust the height or use it as a fixed head. 

Check the details when you choose. Look at the spray patterns, the hose length and the rail height. A longer hose gives more reach, and a rail lets you share the shower between people of different heights. 

Installation is straightforward in many cases, but check your water supply and fittings. A plumber can confirm that the shower suits your water pressure and that the connections are fitted correctly. Match the finish to your tapware for a consistent look. 

Spray settings add choice. A gentle setting suits washing children, while a stronger setting helps rinse shampoo, so look at how many patterns the shower head offers. 

Browse the range to compare styles and finishes, and find a hand-held shower that suits your bathroom.
