Types of shower heads for every bathroom

A good shower head largely determines your showering experience. Whether you're looking for relaxation, luxury, or sustainability, there are various types of shower heads to suit your needs.

Ceiling mounted shower heads

Ceiling-mounted showerheads provide an even water distribution, as if you were standing under a natural rain shower. They are mounted directly on or to the ceiling and give the bathroom a luxurious and modern look.

Advantages:

• Spa-like experience

• Sleek and minimalist design

• Even distribution of the water

Wall mounted shower heads

These shower heads are wall-mounted and are often adjustable in height and angle. This makes them practical and suitable for virtually any shower space.

Pros:

• Flexible in use

• Broad spray pattern

• Suitable for both small and large showers

Water-saving shower heads

With a water-saving shower head, you can enjoy a powerful jet while using less water. Thanks to innovative technologies like air inlets and flow restrictors, this doesn't come at the expense of comfort.

Why choose a water-saving shower head:

• Lower water and energy bills

• Sustainable and environmentally friendly

• Available as a rain shower or hand shower

Multifunctional shower heads

For those who love variety, a multifunctional shower head is ideal. It combines different modes, such as rainfall, massage jets, or a powerful spray. This way, you can create the shower experience you desire every day.

Double shower head

A double showerhead offers ultimate comfort with a wider spray area. Perfect for spacious showers or those who value luxury. Also available in water-saving versions.

Ceiling built-in shower

A ceiling- mounted shower is fully integrated into the ceiling and gives the bathroom a luxurious, minimalist look.

Advantages of a ceiling-mounted shower:

• Sleek and modern design

• Spatial effect without protruding parts

• Even jet of water from above

Important points to note:

• Minimum ceiling height of 2.2 meters recommended

• Sufficient water pressure required

• Installation often requires professional assistance

Head for surface-mounted shower

With a surface-mounted shower, the shower head is attached directly to the wall or shower arm. This is the most common and simple solution.

Types of shower heads for surface mounting:

• Standard shower heads – single spray pattern, adjustable

• Massage shower heads – relaxing and pulsating jets

• Rain shower heads – wide water jet for a luxurious experience

• Eco shower heads – water-saving and sustainable

• Multifunctional shower heads – multiple settings in one

Maintaining a shower head

Good maintenance extends the lifespan and keeps your shower hygienic.

Maintenance tips:

• Clean the shower head regularly with a mild cleaning agent

• Descale with vinegar or special descaler

• Check nozzles and remove blockages with a toothbrush or needle

• Keep the water pressure balanced to prevent wear and tear
