How to choose the right shower head

Confused by the choice of shower fittings available? Use our guide to find your perfect shower style.

What's your shower style?

Rose head: Stylish option with a wide head and lots of small holes, giving a raindrop pattern spray - perfect for those who like a gentle shower.


Ceiling head: Similar spray to a rose head, but requires more water pressure than usual and is the most complicated head to fit. Good choice for wet rooms.


Multifunction head: Twist the head to alter the flow rate and pattern of the spray. Try out the twist action in the shop, remembering that you'll have to move it with wet, soapy hands.


Single Mode head: The most common type, this one is smaller than a rose head and doesn't have an adjustable spray, but it's cheaper and more water-efficient.


Double head: Either two sprays on one unit, an overhead spray plus a side-spray, or a fixed head and a hand-held. Very luxurious, but not water efficient.
