Shower Heads & Slides

Q: How do I stop my shower head from sliding?

If your shower head keeps sliding down the rail, you might need to replace the clamp that holds the shower head, as these can wear down over time. Alternatively, if the shower has been in use for a long time or is made out of low quality materials, the entire slide might need to be replaced.

Q: Is it easy to change a shower head?

Yes, most shower heads are easy to change. More advanced systems like dual showers, rain showers and water jets can be more complicated. If you’re unsure, seek the assistance of a professional for the job.

Featuring the best shower heads and slides in Australia

ArchiPro’s premium collection of bathroom tapware has been hand picked from suppliers across Australia. Shower heads come in a wide variety of designs from the familiar shower rose on the wall, to luxurious ceiling mounted rain shower heads. Shower heads can also be mounted on a sliding system, so each member of the household can adjust the height so that it’s perfect for them.

Types of shower head

Wall mounted shower head

The most common type of shower head in Australia, wall mounted shower heads are just as described. They can come with or without attached shower mixers.

Handheld shower head

Handheld shower heads are connected to the water outlet with a flexible hose. These are often fitted on shower slides.

Dual mount shower head

Dual mount shower heads have both a wall mounted shower head, and a handheld shower head.

Rain shower head

Rain shower heads produce a waterfall of low pressure, high volume water. They are much more gentle compared to your standard shower.

The advantages of high quality shower heads and slides

Any bathroom plumbing, from bath mixers and taps to shower slides, has to deal with water pressure and repeated adjustments. If quality materials aren’t used, this can wear parts down over time. High quality materials and design allow shower heads and slides to function as intended for longer, without suffering from issues such as drooping shower heads or leaking connections. They are also more likely to be more stylishly designed and within the range, have a wider choice of styles too.

How to choose a shower head or slide that’s right for you

A simple wall mounted shower head is easy to understand and use, and has less parts to wear out. There is a growing preference for handheld or dual mounted shower heads and slides as they allow for more targeted use.

More luxurious options such as rain shower heads and massage jets can provide a serious upgrade to your showering experience, but they come at the cost of greater water usage. If you choose a shower head with a high output, you need to be able to match the water pressure and provide enough hot water.

Do all shower heads fit any shower?

The fittings on a shower head tend to all be similar within Australia, but there can be differences when purchasing overseas brands, replacing very old shower heads, or buying boutique luxury brands. Always make sure your choice will fit first before buying.
