Can this be used upside down? My shower arm makes my hand shower too high, I need to make it shorter.

T- did it work ok to make this shorter? I have to stand on tiptoe in order to remove my detachable showerhead from its holder. Did you buy this? Has it lasted?

Yes, it can be used upside down. When we installed ours, we first installed it upside down just to see if it would work-- it does! We now have it installed upright and have been using it for several months without issue. The finish is still very shiny and it has not deteriorated at all. This product comes with a very high recommendation from us!

My wife has asked the same question about the hand held. I have not looked into it yet but looks possible. The regular shower head can be change to any other shower head. The reason I got this unit was so I could install a rain shower head in the ceiling of shower. Rain shower head is not used much. Note: inside the shower head control valve is a small spring and pin that can come out and you may not see it. I did not see it till I installed this unit in 2nd. job.

I would recommend a single-piece arm if at all possible. I have a double-jointed adjustable arm to raise the shower head high enough for me to use but we have a hard time keeping the wing nuts on the joints tightened. The shower head has 'flopped' down a couple of times on us since it is so heavy. I am thinking of replacing the crappy manufacturers bolts and nuts with something a little more heavy duty that I can really crank down. Hope this helps.

I see no reason why you couldn't come up with a way to suspend them upside down. But honestly this product isn't that great. I'd explore other options.

Yes, you probably can, although the shower bar would be better if you have one- it might 'stick out' a bit from a shower door and the sweaters might get wrinkled. It's meant to hang vertically straight down.

In my shower it hangs down, although it is longer than the height to the floor. It will twist some, but does not kink, if that is your concern since it is covered with metal. The part that sits in the opening at the top fits firmly, and is also a valve that can be used as a short term shut off for the water stream. Hope this helps.

Not sure why you would want it upside down but I just tried it and it does woek

Yes, I'm disabled and what I did was bought two hooks that are made for the shower and placed them side by side so the shower head would rest on them. I love this hand held shower. Over the years I have purchased several but never happy until this one. Well worth a little more money and time to place it on the wall.

The arm is extendable and allows you to raise or lower the shower head. Additionally, the shower head can be moved into multiple positions.

So far as I know, the mount came put together and the arm can't be swapped to the other side. If you need it to swing out the opposite way, I'd guess it would have to be installed upside down....but you'd need to check with the manufacturer to verify that it is safe to do that (I don't know why it wouldn't be, but I'm no engineer...) I'm pretty sure the clamps do come off, so you'd just need to take them off and put them on upside down.

You have to straddle the seat with the handle on front of you. I don't think that would work in a shower.

It is designed to fit into the drain. Theoretically you could turn it upside down, but really you would want to buy a different drain catcher.

I would have to say no. If you look at the example pic in the add you can kind of see the soft S shape. Reversing it does not look like it is right. JMHO Secondly, I am not entirely sure how the arm extensions would hold position of slide being upside down. I think you are best checking with the manufactured. The unit is really well made and definitely worth the effort if it can operate the way you want.

Yes, you can attach this to a regular shower head, but you will have to turn it so it is horizontal. This is what I did on mine.

Since there is a lock only on one side (like to lock the bathroom door) when you want to reverse it, the handle will be up instead of down. I think you have to get the right or left one.

Cannot answer. My chair is back in the box.did serve its purpose. My shower is 26 in and I had no problem. Did not attach left arm ,made it easier to enter and exit.Did have a grab on the right. Good luck. TJF

May be. You can definitely install it that way. There appears to be a part that limit the range that the spray arm can rotate. Logically, this should be selectable or adjustable during installation. A contractor installed mine so I don't know for sure. I hope this helps.
