Showerhead Help
 

I'm 6'1 and the pipe coming out of the wall is at about the 5'6 mark and I hate it.

Has anyone dealt with this? Any recommendation on a shower head that is higher than the pipe it connects to?

TIA

I looked for one when I was finishing my basement and didn't find one I liked. They do have ones that have an arm that can extend out and up - example below.

Fortunately for me, I was working from open studs so I just ended up moving it up higher on the wall to where I wanted it with the head I got.

I love showerhead.

LMAO

Im not sure any us us can help you with getting some shower head? but good luck!

Unscrew the shower head and arm. Take the arm into the hardware store and find a shower head with hose attached to it that is the same size as the end of the arm that screwed in. Also buy a small roll of teflon tape. They make different types of shower head holders that will allow you to mount the shower head anywhere on your shower wall. Wrap the end of the hose to be attached in the fitting with teflon tape. Screw in tightly. Mount the showerhead holder at the height that you feel will work the best. Enjoy

Yep Extendo for the win.

If you're renting an apartment or a house.....check with the landlord before changing ANYTHING.

One thing you can do is turn the little gooseneck sticking into the wall clockwise 180 degrees and you'll pick up another 6 inches or so. Make sure the shower head has enough swivel to point the right direction prior to doing so.

If you dont want to cut the wall behind the shower to raise it, try something like this

I'll take a pic and upload it when I get home tonight.

It is an apartment so I have to get anything approved and there can't be any cutting of pipes or walls.

damn short little bastards ruin everything

Actually the landlord just gave me approval to change it.

Do shower heads have universal pipe fittings in the box?

I'd like to just stop at Lowes n the way home.
