EASIEST Way To Clean Your Shower Head💥(UNBELIEVABLE RESULT)!!

How often do you clean your shower head? In this video I'll show you the easiest and most effective way to clean it!!
From time to time it's important to give your shower head a good cleaning as it can become laced with limescale, calcium buildup and nasty gunk in general.
Here's what to do:
Fill up a small bag with distilled white vinegar, submerge the shower head down into the vinegar filled bag. Next, secure the bag in place with a rubber band. All the shower head to soak in the vinegar for 2 hours. This will give the vinegar time to loosen up and eat away all the mineral buildup.
After the 2 hours are over remove the bag, wash off the shower head and you're done. It should look as good as new!!

You can do a quick-result test first. just spray liberally with a mould clearing product typical in bathrooms, and see if 10 minutes sitting and then rinsing off doesn't do the trick. PS - this is an absolute winner for stainless steel drains. Just coat liberally and 10 minutes later the gunk rinses off, and even the drain pipe can come up looking much better.

[@rogercunningham5920]

That's what I was thinking if it could happen. I thought if my chrome coated shower head would be damaged from letting it soak in vinegar. The acid cad damage the coating obviously. All the best !

[@adamb89]

A lot of modern shower heads have rubber nozzles on the ends, so you can simply reach up with your bare hand and sort of forcefully rub at it, like you're trying to wipe a stain off something. Do it while the shower is running. The limescale build up in the rubber nozzles will crumble and be expelled by the water. If you let it get as bad as the one in the video of course you'll need to use chemicals, but if you just reach up with your hand every time you take a shower and make a point to give the showerhead a quick wipedown, you'll never have to.

[@SirCricket]

YUP!

[@kma3647]

CLR does the same as the vinegar but in about 20 minutes. Also twist ties are probably easier than trying to double up a rubber band. Good video, no BS intro, no clickbait, no "like, share, and subscribe please, cuz I'm desperate for monies", just good quality advice. Thank you!

[@SuwinTzi]

I personally don't want something as heavy CLR so i'll stick to vinegar

[@USA-freedom]

@@SuwinTzi With about a teaspoon of baking soda and just enough water to make a paste with an old tooth brush work it into the shower head. wait a few minutes and then use a cup with just enough vinegar to submerge the shower head. don't be startled if you see form come flowing over the cup. Hold it there for a minute or two. Then while flushing it clean scrub it with the bush. Slow draining sink? I do somewhat the same thing. This time add about a tablespoon of baking soda no need to wait then add about a 1/2 cup of vinegar. Then when it starts to fizzle down add some more vinegar. Wait a couple of minutes and flush with hot water. I have never try this on a clogged drain. You will be surprised at how well this works.

It may damage painted finishes, and will likely dissolve a bit of bronze (acid does that to metal), but the latter should be very negligible.

[@roxydog2004]

It's also a good idea to remove all the aerator from your faucets and clean the screens if you ever need to turn the main water supply to the house off for any reason, and when you turn the water back on let it run a minute before putting the aerator back on to get the sediment out, you should notice an improvement in your water pressure .

If your showerhead screws off by hand easily, I would recommend removing it and setting it in a bowl of vinegar. It's what I do. Otherwise exact same process (no other modifications)

[@oatnoid]

Remember to replace your evil younger brother's toothbrush in the bathroom so the little jerk doesn't know what you did with it. Tomorrow, the toilet....

I have used this method on our rental properties’ shower heads for 20 + years. What amazes me is that this guy=y had the smarts to monetize this old technique on KZbin. I have told many of my tenants about this over the years too. It works.. Just leave it overnight after your shower and remove the next time you shower….

[@Irishman1776]

An easier way for kitchen sinks is to fully extend the nozzle and place it inside a glass or measuring cup with vinegar. Use a chip clip or clothes pin and clamp it to the hose near the pipe.

[@the6ix665]

Or just unclip the weight under the sink that holds the nozzle in place. Takes two seconds

[@atrain132]

The shower head gets cleaned, but just keep in mind the pipes inside are even worse.

[@xHadesStamps]

That's what hard water does, unfortunately

I just put a huge baggie around my entire house, and soak the house in vinegar for 6 months

I used the white vinegar on my tub because of the mineral deposits. It really worked. I closed the tub drain and poured in one gallon of white vinegar. Then I just barely dribbled cold water into the tub. By morning tub was full of water mixed with vinegar. I took a paper towel and wiped down the tub and all of the mineral deposits were gone. I will try your method on my shower head.

[@Shinnosuki]

Vinegar will erode enamel tubs.

[@atlanteum]

I recently soaked a garden sprayer head in a small bucket of pure vinegar for three days. It did nothing to clean the nozzles. So I did a little research and discovered that the acidity of vinegar decreases over time, so maybe a nice, fresh bottle will do the trick.

[@CleanWithConfidence]

That is correct. I would change it out with fresh vinegar.

[@stevepreskitt283]

In my experience, what works even better than vinegar (acetic acid) is citric acid, which is usually available in the canning section at the supermarket. I keep a bag of it in the pantry, and mix up a fresh batch (around 4-5 teaspoons per pint of water, which is a pretty strong solution) whenever something needs cleaning. Using hot water will increase its effectiveness. Unlike vinegar, it has no smell, and works great for cleaning bathroom tile, too. It's safe to use - just don't get it in your eyes, and rinse your hands well afterwards.

[@atlanteum]

@@stevepreskitt283 Awesome! I'll give it a shot!

[@xHadesStamps]

That vinegar must have been really old

[@mmahtnart8986]

Bathroom window or mirror. Use water/vinegar and newspaper. Use the part of the newspaper with least print. No colored print.

[@jomama01]

Do what this guy suggests and use an old tooth brush to really clean the deposits out! Some models have flexible nozzle tips that also make it easier to break deposits loose. An old home repair but a good one.

[@wesalker3479]

The vinegar that you can find in "home stores" is twice as concentrated as the vinegar that you find at the grocery store.

Over the years, I just unscrew the shower head, put it in a good-sized bowl and fill it with vinegar. Soak over night and clean the remnants off with a potato brush. Sometimes need to use a toothpick to clean one or two holes out. Thanks for your video.

[@Xanduur]

Don’t forget goggles when doing the showerhead! When you go to scrub off the little leftover pieces, they will pop into your eyes. Been there done that.

Thanks, the Molen head unscrews so no need to keep a baggie like that. Also, CLR does a great job. In addition to the head, the aerators likely need to be demineralized. I did all our faucets and the water pressure was vastly improved. Lastly, most Molen faucets have a proprietary way to remove the aerators, they require a special key. However, sink faucets like this one does not have a key that allows one to remove and clean the aerator. I found out from a neighbor that Molen will send out the kitchen sink faucet head and aerators for bathroom sinks for free!
