How To Clean Rainfall Shower Heads

Cleaning your rainfall shower head regularly is important in preventing this build-up, as left too long, your shower head can become blocked, which can affect the water flow. A build-up of limescale will also stop your rainfall shower head from shining as brightly as it deserves to.

1. Find a plastic bag that is big enough to fit over your rainfall shower head
   
2. Half fill the bag with distilled white vinegar.
   
3. Slip the bag over the shower head until the head is completely submerged in the solution.
   
4. Tie the bag securely using string or an elastic band around the neck if the pipe above or behind the head.
5. Leave your rainfall showerhead to soak for at least half an hour, though preferably for a full hour.
6. Remove the plastic bag and turn on the shower to flush out any limescale or vinegar left inside the showerhead.
   
7. Use a wet sponge to gently wipe the showerhead.
   
8. Using an old toothbrush, remove any residue from the showerhead and the nozzles.
   
9. Polish with a soft cloth.
   
10. Repeat the process if necessary, until all the limescale has gone.
    

Having followed these step-by-step instructions, your rainfall shower head should now be gleaming.
