What can be done to improve low flow from a showerhead?
There are several causes for reduced flow from showerheads. Minerals from the water supply can collect in the spray openings, and dirt and debris from the water supply can clog the screens and flow restrictors. For showerheads with rubber spray tips, you can run your fingers against the rubber tips while the showerhead is in use. Flexing the tips will break up calcium deposits. If the showerhead is not equipped with rubber spray tips, soak the showerhead in a 50/50 solution of vinegar and water overnight.
