No one wants to put up with an inefficient showerhead. The fact remains, though, that leaks happen. Usually, leaky showerheads are caused by mineral buildup, which is very common in North Dallas. Thankfully, cleaning a showerhead yourself is a simple process.
If you’re willing to try it yourself, here are the steps for cleaning your showerhead:
- Turn off the water that supplies your bathroom. There will usually be a shutoff valve in the bathroom. If not, you can turn off the main water line for the whole house.
- Remove the showerhead from the wall connection.
- Fill a container with white vinegar and let the showerhead soak in it for eight hours. While the showerhead soaks, most of the limescale build-up should dissolve.
- After soaking for eight hours, remove any leftover deposits from the showerhead. You can use a toothpick to remove debris from the smaller holes. You can then use a toothbrush to scrub the whole showerhead clean.
- Place the showerhead back on its wall connection. Turn the water back on.
