Hello nannie3 and thank you for joining The Community!  We are glad that you are here.

 

You can learn how to clean as well as replace your shower head in the video How to Clean and Replace a Shower Head.  There is also an Installing a New Showerhead Project Guide that shows step-by-step instructions for replacing fixed-mount and hand-held models.

 

 Best wishes on your project.

Hi Eileen, we bought a new shower head and are having trouble getting the bit of pipe with the ball joint off. My husband was using one set of pliers and a gripper and could not get it to move. Do we really need a wrench too? Any ideas for loosening it?

Thanks!

Hello that_girl and welcome to The Community.  We are glad that you are here.

 

Congratulations on the new showerhead!  I would recommend an adjustable wrench to get more control of this situation.

When working with chrome, brass or other polished metal finishes, you might consider a strap wrench to prevent damaging the finish.
