A well-designed showerhead can ensure that the amount of water allocated to each nozzle is basically the same, so when choosing a showerhead, it is important to consider the water output. The water-saving function is a key consideration when choosing a showerhead. Some showerheads use steel ball valve cores and are equipped with adjustable hot water controllers, which can adjust the inflow of hot water into the mixing tank, so that the hot water can flow out quickly and accurately. This type of reasonably designed showerhead saves 50% of water compared to regular showerheads.
When selecting, tilt the showerhead to allow water to flow out. If the water from the top nozzle is noticeably small or not at all, it indicates that the internal design of the showerhead is mediocre. Even if there are multiple water flow methods such as laser and spray, users may not receive the corresponding comfortable experience.
Secondly, when looking at the nozzle, pay attention to whether the showerhead is easy to clean. The blockage of the outlet of a showerhead is often caused by the accumulation of impurities in the sieve cover. If the showerhead is used for a long time, it is inevitable that scale will deposit. If it cannot be cleaned, some spray holes may be blocked. In order to avoid blockage of the outlet due to poor water quality, well-designed showerheads are often protruding outside for easy cleaning, or the nozzle is made of silicone material. When cleaning, the scale deposited on the nozzle can be brushed off with a cloth or hand. Some showerheads also have an automatic cleaning function for scale, so you can ask one more question when choosing a showerhead.
Looking at the coating and valve core, generally speaking, the brighter and more delicate the surface of the showerhead, the better the process treatment of the coating. A good valve core is made of extremely hard ceramic, which is smooth, wear-resistant, and prevents leakage. Consumers must try turning the switch themselves. If the feel is poor, it is best not to purchase this type of showerhead.
Finally, shower accessories will directly affect their comfort of use, and special attention should also be paid. For example, whether the water pipes and lifting rods are flexible, what is the bending resistance of the shower hose with steel wire, whether there are anti twist ball bearings at the connection of the shower, and whether there is a rotation controller installed on the lifting rod.
Measurement methods
Water outlet method
Multiple water outlet methods are no longer exclusive to high-end showerheads, but are gradually becoming popular among ordinary showerhead brands. A showerhead is generally equipped with four types of water outlet methods, and the following are the most common ones:
1、 The most basic shower water flow for bathing;
2、 Rainwater type, continuously discharging water bit by bit;
3、 Massage style, strong and powerful water splashes, intermittent pouring, allowing the body to relax;
4、 Gentle stroke, continuous and small water flow;
5、 Single strand, a water column with concentrated water flow.
The adjustment method is very simple. Simply press the small handle on the showerhead or directly rotate the showerhead to freely switch the water output.
Constant temperature and water-saving functions
Do you need to readjust the water temperature every time you take a shower? This is too troublesome! Many showerheads are equipped with constant temperature devices, which not only regulate the temperature, but also use metal ball valves to help you "remember" the suitable temperature. When you choose a water temperature and fix it, the water temperature will remain constant during each bath in the future. Make it easy for shower users to control water temperature and flow, while also ensuring the safety of bathing for the elderly and children.
This device has the same appearance as a regular faucet switch and is equipped with an adjustable hot water controller to control the inflow of hot water into the mixing tank, so that the hot water can flow out quickly and accurately, saving both water and heat energy. In other words, while memorizing the water temperature and adjusting the water volume, it can save up to 50% of water without affecting the water outlet effect.
Dechlorination of purified water
Traditional showerheads only focus on the quality and water conservation of showerheads. In today's era, people's demands for a healthy lifestyle are no longer satisfied with just bathing. The multifunctional fashion showerhead is people's first choice. Water purification showerheads refer to high-energy purification balls and permanent magnets embedded on the surface of the showerhead that are used to magnetize, adsorb, filter, oxidize, ionize, and purify residual chlorine, bacteria, foreign objects, and other impurities in water, making the water pure and enjoying healthy bathing. Common ones are three sunlight magnetized shower heads.
Self cleaning
Traditional showerheads usually have their water outlets stored inside, while there is a style on the market that is exactly the opposite. Designers boldly expose the water outlets outside, and the rubber texture feels hard to the touch. It is reported that this design is designed to facilitate cleaning, which can be done by hand or with a cloth; On the other hand, the water hole protrudes outward, making the shower water more natural. In addition, some showerheads have self-cleaning functions. When spraying water, the descaling needle will automatically clean the sediment at the water outlet, but the price is more expensive than ordinary showerheads.
Details of accessories
The showerhead directly affects the texture of the water, while the accessories of the showerhead can affect the comfort of use. Some brands of water pipes and lifting rods are particularly flexible. The hoses are made of steel wire with anti bending material, and the connection is also equipped with anti twist ball bearings. Even if you dance while taking a shower, the water pipes will not "fight"; Equipped with a rotating controller, the lifting rod can easily move vertically or horizontally.
