Water from hand-held part always hit the fixed head, no matter what the tilt is on both. Is it normal? If so I sure don't like it

On mine I usually keep the hand-held part turned off. When they are both on the water from the hand-held part doesn't hit the fixed head - I have quite good water pressure though.

It's only done that on mine in one apartment where my water pressure was absolutely awful. Otherwise, both streams are very strong and the stream from the handheld doesn't hit the fixed head.

The water hits about 1" of the fixes head. I read in the instructions how to rotate them so it does not hit more.

Reseat the bin containing the water. You probably didn't push hard enough or align it properly. After a couple of times you'll get used to it!

It doesn't appear to adjust water pressure- shower head behaves the same just has less volume going through. Its possible that the water pressure is rising with the reduced volume of water. I installed one of these and my wife never noticed- I'm guessing I reduced volume by at least 40-50%. Win win for everyone!

I don't really know, but a coworker of mine had that problem. He thinks it was because after his shower he would shake it from an end to get water drops off. I haven't had any problem with mine and I have worn it pretty much constantly for 8 months now.

No problem with tilt, the designer used a very clever method to be certain that there was always water until the tank is empty. Mine operates of and on, it makes steam for about 3 min. then quits steaming apparently to get the incoming water hot again. Always did this and less than a month old.

I've been very happy. The head on ours does not move downward. The sound has not had any problem. I would ask for a replacement.

It gives about a 45 degree tilt of the head.... you can aim it at your feet or the far end of the tub. If that isn't enough then maybe the hand held unit with hose is more for u.

Although the even distribution of the water you are putting through this head seems like more water, nothing can help poor water pressure, simply put, the water coming in is equal to the water going out. It's the way its distributed that makes the difference.

Mine has given me no problem at all and it gets wet a lot. For the price a guy could have a couple on hand!

It's fixed and it hasn't been a problem. It probably depends on the height you install it do that it drops water to the center of the shower.

I did have an issue and it was because I was pushing them in too far. Back off a little and see if it works better.Water does go into the ears but that is normal.Bob

I am using it as my main shower head. I removed the pipe that connected the old shower head to the water delivery pipe. I think the force of the water is strong.

I have two different versions of this model and I'm very happy with them. If you just flush it might not release a full force of water. If you hold the hand down, however, it seems to provide much more force of water. Try holding it down. You could also call American Standard and talk to them for some advice.

Yeah, mine has never been right since day one. For some reason it doesn't fit right on the top right (by the cab) and always lets water in. I was very disappointed but have just lived with it.

I have the same thing. I sort of tilt it until it feeds water to the bottom

OMG I have this exact same problem. I thought it was something I did "wrong".Yes I keep tripping over it and it has become a hazard, such as when carrying hot liquids for example.And annoying to boot.

the controls do not tilt however the water hits the right places and depends on where you adjust the water flow on control. The water hits where it needs to hit and how and where depends on where you adjust the control to hit. Hope that makes sense. I love mine.
