I'm looking at installing one of these that I just purchased and am questioning what happens to the existing shower head connection?

The shower head connection must be rerouted to a lower spot. The new panel will cover the existing hole, but a new valve must be installed at a lower location.

It is a very simple (it has to be for me) screw on shower head. Just unscrew the old one making sure you don't turn the pipe and screw on the new one. After months of use I think it is worth more then 5 stars. Good luck

Not entirely sure I understand your question. The handle on the hose? If so yes, but why would you want to buy it only to replace it? Or did you mean on one you already have to exchange shower heads? Either way you should have no problem unscrewing the head from the hose to replace with another.

I wouldn't be worry about the connection. The installation was very simple, the shower is absolutely perfect and beautiful. Don't think twice if you need to change the connection it will worth. About the quality, is really high quality. I never had a problem and I don't beleive I will have a problem soon with this shower. I love it.

Yes you can. That's all I had to do. 1. Unscrew the old showerhead 2. Wrap threads in plumbers tape 3. Screw on the new showerhead. BTW, well worth every penny...probably more!

It attaches to the main shower pipe. Remove your existing shower hose and attach the new one. Simple as that.

When you get the package you have to connect the shower head to the chrome arm that extended from the panel. There are a series of pipes in the back of the panel that feed the various water outlets. I suppose you could disconnect the pipe that goes to the shower head from the arm or go directly from the arm with another pipe, but I did not study the piping in the back to know for sure if that is possible.

This is a shower head and extension only. It just replaces your shower head. Your shower then works as always with the hot and cold fixtures as they are on your current shower.

You can connect any shower head as the unit screws into the 1/2" shower pipe coming out of the wall and the other end fits a standard shower head or wand fitting. I installed this between my existing shower head and the pipe, so be aware that it will stick out more from the wall. The added length is about 4 inches.

My husband removed our old shower head and put this one on. I did not see him do it, but I do know we did not have to buy anything additional. Hope this helps! We really like it, by the way.

Remember. This is just the nozzle attachment for the Cleanstream. My review was meant for the Cleanstream but my computer was acting up. Now to answer your question, all you need to do is to hook up the Cleanstream to the shower head and BINGO

Yes, you have to install it with the shower. You take the head off, screw the quick connect on then screw the shower head into that. The quick connect that works great. I just wish it had a little more pressure but I like it.

Without seeing what's going on I'm not sure.. Only thing I can wonder is what the threads look like, if the threads are stripped it won't scew on.. I would examine the threads on the nipple and make sure the male side is in good condition then examine the female side of the oral breeze attachment. Then I would look at the shower head it's possible that the shower head has a messed up thread and stripped the nipple somehow.. I hope I helped

I agree with the comments regarding changing a shower head. You don't need this if you're just replacing a shower head. But if you are remodeling a bathroom and are installing a new shower or shower/tub combination, you WILL want this. Basically it's a housing for your shower valve that controls water flow pressure and temperature. It has threaded pipe connectors for connecting your water source pipes (hot & cold) to pipes routed to your shower head, tub spout, or shower sprayer. Your shower control valve mounts inside the box easily making installation a simple task. Your trim plates and handles then mount onto the valve and i-Box, thus creating a water-tight seal.

I used it in-line with a shower head that would have been expensive to change (only reason I wanted to change it was that it wasn't a low flow shower head). Have had it installed for months now without any issues.

No the connections are for a shower or a garden hose. The connection screws on to the shower pipe then you screw the shower head to the rapid bath section. Hope this helps.

There was no noticeable change either with pressure or water output. That will be determined most likely by the showerhead. I kept the same one. Make sure it is not cracked. Micro tears are common. You will see them once installed and on. Good luck.
