Can the head be taken apart and the holes removed for cleaning? I have a lot of mineral buildup from my well water.

I don't know how hard your well water is, but here in Las Vegas the water is really hard without a softener. Even so, this shower head has soft rubber spray nozzles that you can just rub your fingers over to break away any mineral build up. If it got too bad before you manually cleaned it, I've had great success filling a plastic bag with white vinegar, twist-tying it over the shower head and letting it soak over night - any build up will rinse away in the morning. I doubt this shower head can be easily disassembled for cleaning.

You can probably pull it apart, but I have never done that so I am not sure. Might be messy and you might lose some of the powder.

The head is washable / removable. It's not difficult to take off and put on. I'm unsure about replacement heads. On a side note, I wouldn't personally buy this item again. It's not really good as a mop. There are several spin mops out there that are better. As a duster, I feel like the rubber head, while somewhat flexible, doesn't really bend in a way that makes it easy to clean baseboards and near the ceiling. I ended up getting a compact vacuum for that. It's a good attempt, but just not something I'd pay for again given the choice.

I don't think so. the hole where water comes out is about the size of a Mayo jar opening if that makes sense. I haven't cleaned ours yet.

it is removable therefore you should be able to, not a bad idea as frankly this isn't the best head, it's worked for me but not the best.

I was not able to. There is a large screw on the bottom of the head, but once I removed it the head did not come off.

Yes it can be taken apart, I thoroughly clean every other month. This is how I do it. Take the filter out (best done when changing filter). Remove white tray. Fill container with water, add one teaspoon of bleach. Leave soaking for approxamitely thirty minutes. Then open tap and let the water flow out (this cleans out the tap). Rinse out thoroughly, replace filter and fill with water. If the tap is dirty and the washer is stained, save some of the water being drained from the container. Unscrew the tap and place in the saved water. Leave for half hour then rinse and clean properly before replacing on the Brita container.

It is easily removed, and should be rinsed under running water. Every 80 cycles, or after 6 months of operation, it should be replaced. Wm. H. Young

I haven't removed them. They are a star-pattern hole on each side (6-point star). You might be able to use an allan wrench, but I'm afraid it may strip the screws. With the correct tool, the head should be removable very easily.

Yes you can. It comes completely apart for cleaning, mouthpiece, straw and all.

The three combs and cutters can be removed from the head assembly in one piece (sub assembly).To do this , lift the silver trim which surrounds each comb/cutter and you will have all three exposed for brushing or rinsing under tap water. Three beard catchers for cuttings remain as part of the head assembly for easy brushing/rinsing. Once cleaned, the three comb/cutter sub-assembly can be snapped back in place.Unfortunately, Philips Norelco uses the terminology "shaver head" for both the fully assembled RQ12+ and for what I call the sub-assembly containing the three combs/cutters. Good luck!

The head is not designed to be removable from the hose (but the hose is detachable from the base). I also believe that if one forces the steam head from the hose, it will not be replaceable.

Yes, there is a threaded connection between the sprinkling head and the spout, so it can be removed.

The replacement heads should come with a plastic piece that is the head removal tool. There is a hole just below the brush head that when using the tool depresses a tiny ear that locks the head to the toothbrush. Not to be confused with the two holes on the back of the brush head.. Those are drainage holes.You can use a needle to release the tiny ear you dont have to have the head removal tool.

No. I would recommend the well system unit. This would work on a well but the life would be severely lessened due to high iron levels.

Sorry, I've never felt mine needed to be removed. We have a water softener and very soft water anyway, so there has never been a build-up or anything that looked like it needed cleaning that I couldn't do without removing it. I use the Bodum strictly for heating water.
