How far from the ceiling should this showerhead be mounted, or how far above from your head for the best effect?

This shower head is awesome! We used a three inch shower extension from the ceiling straight down. Our shower is eight feet to the ceiling. So the three inch from the ceiling makes for a perfect shower. The rain shower is high quality, and has a filter or a flow stopper inside the shower head that can be taken out for more flow if needed. I did not do this, because it was plenty for the shower head in the middle of our shower. We also have a separate Hans Grove jet sprayer that comes out of the wall. The rain shower is in our steam shower. Great price compared to all other places I looked.

We have a standard 8' ceiling and have a 4" extension pipe for the shower head ceiling mount. It's amazing. We're 5'8" and 6'1" and love it.

Our ceiling is 106" high. We have the shower head hanging fro a 9" extension. The shower head is 2" deep. I am 72" high therefore it is 23" to the top of my head.My wife is 64" tall. Therefore she has her head 31" from the shower head. Both love the rain effect that it has and the distance is not really noticeable.

The showerhead itself is pretty solid and works well as far as water flow. But dont count on the lights working for very long. Like Melody said that depends on the general water pressure in your home.

You can buy the extension that mount on the wall. I bought one that makes a "L" shape so that it is still like a rain shower. Otherwise the water would fall differently if The head is not in flat position. Hope it helps.

Place it right over the commode or next to the shower best over the commode next to the shower. Love it!

More distance from ceiling better . it is recommended at least 3'. Mine is 4' and works great

You could run the copper or lex up into the ceiling, and buy a simple chrome shower arm that descends to the desired hight of the rain shower. The arm that it comes with would not work out of the ceiling - but the shower head will work with any other arm.

Approximately, 75 degrees perpendicular to the vertical wall. Which means slightly tilted up from a flat plane. If you want a perfect 90 degree flat perpendicular plane, then you should install a swivel in between your shower head and arm. Most shower heads already have them included with exception to some rain shower heads.

It doesn't matter at all. If you have unfinished basement, then ceiling mount is easiest, or place it 2-4 ft above sump cover. You have to improvise and build anchor base to secure the Basepump which I had to do because I have finished basement. Don't place it on top of sump pit lid cover.

There's a button you push on the back of the shower head. Really easy, no fiddling. Of course, if the shower head is mounted too high, you won't be able to reach it.

Hi Edith...you can. However I would not recomment this to my worst enemy with a rain head if it's a ceiling mount. My rainhead is out of the ceiling and so this fixture was positioned horizontally. The first shower was totally fine...tiny drp on top of the rainhead but nothing to be concerned about. 3rd time I used the shower I encured about $600 worth of drywall damage due to the seal failing on the filter and spewing water all over my bathroom.

I'm 5'10"and there is a lot of space between my head and the shower head, but it really depends how high your plumbing goes up.

In my shower, it is not directly overhead...it reaches out about a foot or so, but the head is capable of changing angles as well as swinging around a bit at the attmt point. it is not much higher than my old shower head was. I am using it in a std bathtub/shower combo and it really didn't change much about how I shower in there. Hope this helps.

I think you can get close to flush. The stem comes with 2 long pieces and 2 short. We used on short and it's about 9" from ceiling. You can mount without that to get closer.

I have mine mounted 3-4 feet down from the ceiling-but that's in a room with cathedral ceilings.

You just need the straight arm and desired length. We have an 8 ft ceiling and purchased the 6 inch pipe. combined with the depth of the showerhead, it is about 8 inches from the ceiling. If you have a 9 ft ceiling, you may want to look for a 10 inch pipe. IMO, anything longer would look out of place. This is a great showerhead providing a gentle, drenching shower which i think is what you want for a ceiling mount. Some other ceiling mount showerheads denote a fully body spray which IMO should be for the wall mount and this for the ceiling to offer different variations with the gentler spray from the ceiling.

Mine is mounted in a 8 foot ceiling bathroom with a built in tub, using standard length curtains. The vertical rod that attaches to the ceiling is adjustable. I ran a pipe out of the spigot for the shower head that I clamped the horizontal mount to, but it can bolt to the wall. Hope that helps.

U can use it as a wall or ceiling mount, u just have to have the correct shower head neck. I hung mine from the ceiling and it looks great.
