Clean Your Showerhead
If you do not want to buy a new showerhead, here’s a quick way to clean your old showerhead without using harsh chemicals. Mix baking soda with warm water to make a paste. The amount of water doesn’t matter, as long as the paste is thick. If the mixture is too runny or chunky, you can add more baking soda. Use a rubber band to hold everything together. Wipe the entire shower head with the paste, and repeat the process with more baking soda.
For easy cleaning, place a plastic bag filled with white vinegar on the shower head. Secure the bag with a rubber band. Let the solution soak for about 20 minutes. If you have time, leave it overnight. Remove the plastic bag, rinse the showerhead, and you’re done! This simple trick will remove the grime that is clogging your showerhead. It’s easy, inexpensive, and effective!
If you’re using a distilled white vinegar, you can simply place the bottle of vinegar over the shower head. If you’re using a reusable plastic bag, make sure to tighten it before you use it to rinse the head. You can also use an old toothbrush to scrape away any gunk that remains. After the shower is complete, use a dry cloth or microfiber towel to pat dry.
How to Clean Your Showerhead
To clean your showerhead, you need to check its holes. Submerge the area where the water is leaking. Then, place a gallon-size plastic bag inside the pitcher. Fold the bag’s edges so that it’s upright. Then, add half a cup of baking soda. Then, leave it overnight. After the vinegar solution has dried, remove the plastic bag from the shower head.
Before using a shower head, make sure you wash the area underneath. You can also use a plastic bag filled with hot water and one-eight cup of soap. Wrap a rubber band around the shower head and place it tightly around the water pipe. Insert the plastic bag into the shower head. Once immersed, use a safety pin to scrub the holes. You should do this several times a week until the soap has removed.
You can also try a cleaning solution that contains baking soda and vinegar. The two substances react with each other and form carbonic acid, which is a strong natural cleaning agent. To clean your shower head, place the bag over the shower head and leave it for a couple of hours. For a deeper cleaning, you can use a heavy-duty cleaner. Then, you can rinse it with hot water. Once the vinegar has dried, wipe it down with warm water.
If you want to use a cleaner that contains natural ingredients, use vinegar and baking soda. If the shower head is removable, you can place it in a bowl filled with the cleaning solution. If it is not removable, you can use a plastic bag to clean it. For non-removable shower heads, tie a rubber band around it and submerge it in the solution. It will work as long as the whole shower head is submerged in the solution.
However, if none of these techniques work, it is likely that your showerhead is quite old and needs to be replaced. To buy a new one, you can check out ProServices Supply’s website for an extensive range.
