This regulator states that it is for a hand-held shower head; can it be used with a standard shower head?

Yes it can be used for standard shower heads. It works well for my shower heads that are all hand held. Standard are easily adaptable.

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.

I use it on a standard shower head and at the connector for a hand held shower head too.

We got it specifically for that reason. Works perfectly! Our shower head had too much pressure but we didn't want to part with it so this was a great option.

I have mine in a standard 1/2 inch thread shower head. If your hand held shower screws on the top where a standard head goes, it will work fine. Very good product. Recommended.

David, by handheld do you mean use this shower head for a handheld or do you mean connect a handheld beside this shower head?

I have not tried to do this, but it does look possible. The hose appears to be the same size as any hand held shower head. However, the holder attached to the main unit that holds the head is small and may not hold most shower heads. You can solve this by purchasing a shower head holder that mounts separately.

I have a delta hand held unit and it fits great and you can have it spray while in the slot. Makes for a nice dual shower head setup that way.

No.... We never use this as a hand held ... It is always in place. This is the best shower head I have ever owned. Honestly!!

That is the type I had and it did not work well with that. I had to change it out to a normal shower head. The hand held would not stay in place and kept moving around due to the filter was in the way.

It seems to be somewhat of a universal holder. I have my old American Standard shower head an it fits as well as the original holder. This does not come with a shower head or hose. I woul guess it would accomodate most brands of hand held shower heads.Unlike the American Standard slide bar, which had plastic mounts and holder, this unit is all chrome plated brass. This is a very high quality shower bar. I highly recommend.

Can't help you. I never used mine - my shower head was bigger than the opening on the holder. I ordered two different holders and neither fit. Just made a bad purchase.

I believe that this, in combination with the Universal box, can be used to divert the water flow between a shower head and the tub although our application was between a fixed shower head and a personal hand held shower head.

The adjustment knob can be loosened to raise or lower the height of the shower head. The shower head can be turned left or right in the head holding bracket without turning the the adjustment knob. The head can be lifted out of the bracket to use as a hand held shower. Hope this helps.

The hand held shower comes with a 59-60 inch hose to connect to the pipe nipple of your shower. It replaces a stationary shower head, which is the reason I bought mine. I believe it comes with instructions. If I didn't answer your question well enough, go to a home improvement store and ask someone in the plumbing department.

There is not a hand-held shower function with the shower head. I believe it comes extra and you have to purchase separate. I have to say that this is a beautiful tub/shower unit and works wonderfully.

As far as I know, yes. :)Shower heads normally connect to a 1/2-inch threaded shower pipe (or "arm" as it is often called). The filter acts as a "go between" from your existing shower arm and your shower head. So, if you have standard plumbing and shower head, it should work just fine.(I would even think that it would work for a hand-held shower head assuming that the hose attaches to a standard shower arm that extends from the wall.)Good luck!

We already had a hand held shower head too prior to buying this shower filter. We hooked the Aquasana up and then attached our hand held shower head and it works just fine.

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.

You can set it halfway but the flow is seriously constricted in that position, so, NO, you cannot use both the shower head and hand held at the same time

Yes, you can use another head. I have a hand shower hooked to mine. It's a universal size.
