7 Different Types Of Showerheads And Styles

There are many different types of showerheads, including single-spray, multi-spray, fixed, handheld, dual, deluge and eco – and there’s some crossover between the various types. Let’s explore each type in more detail:

Single-spray showerheads with one spray pattern are among the most common and popular showerhead choices. They suit any shower system and offer a single invigorating flow that you can enjoy time and again. 

Consider the Mira Beat or Mira Nectar for a stylish and affordable option with a rounded head, or try the Mira Honesty for a cubist-inspired design.

Multi-spray showerheads offer various spray experiences, making them ideal for shared showers. Whether you prefer saturation, stimulation or soothing, there’s an option for everyone.

Mira’s multi-spray models provide four spray patterns that are easily selectable with a button or switch. The Mira Beat comes in two different sizes plus an eco-option. Meanwhile, the Mira 360m features Mira Flipstream™ Technology, allowing you to choose from four unique spray modes by flipping the circular section of the showerhead.

Deluge showerheads, also known as rainfall showerheads, deliver a drenching, spa-like experience with extensive coverage. They can be mounted on either the wall or the ceiling but are typically larger than standard fixed showerheads. All Mira deluge models are compatible with any shower system.

The Mira Beat Deluge range offers both 20cm and 25cm options, while the Mira Honesty Deluge Showerhead boasts a sleek 25cm cubist design.

Handheld showerheads, also known as hand showers, offer single-spray and multi-spray modes. Unlike fixed showerheads, they can be removed from their mount so that you can target specific areas of your body from any angle, increasing the pressure and massaging feeling in the process. Handheld showerheads are also ideal for bathing children and pets. All the single and multi-spray options we mentioned earlier fall into the handheld category.

If you’re conscious of saving water and energy, consider our eco-friendly showerheads. Designed for high-pressure mixer showers or pumped gravity tank-fed showers, they offer a powerful flow while saving water—up to 85% compared to standard versions—thanks to the integrated flow regulator.

For power showers, adjust the flow setting to save water instead of purchasing the Mira Eco showerhead. Alternatively, try our Mira Nectar Eco Single Spray Showerhead, which provides a great showering experience while still saving up to 85%* water.
