Head Shower

onislandtime

The head shower handle stop flowing a shower spray. Its now like a faucet flow. Any ideas why? I have taken it apart and still the same. I don't really see an adjustment for the flow. Help!

Picture? Mine pulls in and out so it goes faucet to spray

Willhound

Mine turns side to side at the aerator. Pretty obvious little flipper though. Perhaps yours pulls/pushes in and out as suggested by @Handymans342 ?

This is the one I have. Mine pulls out also. Holy Mackerel. So I wonder if I'm not pulling it out far enough to engage the spray?

Willhound

Try turning that little knob on the side of the handle up near the aerator.

I feel I have turned everything that will turn and I get the same flow, no shower spray as I have before.

Maybe its clogged??

That one needs to be pulled out to get the shower spray.

Does anyone know of a replacement for the head shower faucet? I have the pull out one in my 342, but when I first tried using it, pretty much fell apart

Maybe I'm not pulling it out all the way, you're saying. I do pull it away from the faucet housing

@Handymans342 I get good water flow, its just flowing like out of the regular faucet not a spray

I just replaced the head on mine

Where did you fine the head? Most have male ends and this one need a female unless I replace the line also

It is made by Scandvik.

I'm betting you just need to pull out a bit harder.  They can tend to get tough to pull, especially if left in one position for a while.

Aerator is cheap on Amazon: 22m version:

Push and pull a couple times. This happen to me a couple of weeks ago.

And I'm assuming that everyone doesn't mean pull the hose harder but the little nozzle at the end?

Couple of us replaced head faucet with this one.  Was in Amazon Warehouse for $40 at the time.

You pull out on the head itself, that changes it from faucet to spray. The head itself has a outer chrome looking housing and it moves outward a few mm to make it go to spray. Mine cracked years ago and I found an exact match at Home Depot, link is posted here somewhere, so if it is stuck you can replace at Home Depot for around $6

I've also bought them at the dollar store.  Not sure it's identical to yours, but I use it in the galley sink.

@gack Now this isn't the the sink faucet. It's in the shower.

gack

Ah, ok. On my boat there both the same. 

onislandtime

Update: Still feel silly. Thanks everyone for the education how to operate my shower!

onislandtime

@gack on the 342 there is a separate shower but thanks for the input, I'm now thinking of upgrading me sink to yours lol

Hah, I feel like a idiot.  I have been taking a shower for years with the stream.  I had no idea this head was adjustable after i attempted to turn the head. I never tried pulling out on it.  Just did, works like a charm.  I am looking forward to my morning shower!
