Homepointe 228626 Fixed Wall Shower Head 1.8 Gpm Chrome

Product Description

The HomePointe 228626 is a fixed wall-mount shower head designed for residential bathroom installations. Built with a chrome finish and a plastic construction, it delivers up to 1.8 gallons per minute (GPM) across five selectable spray settings. The 3-inch diameter head connects to a standard wall arm via a plastic ball joint that allows angle adjustment without tools. Plumbers and general contractors install this unit as a straightforward replacement or new-construction fitting in residential shower applications. The low-flow rating supports compliance with water-efficiency standards in many jurisdictions.

This shower head suits residential bathroom remodels and new construction where a fixed wall-mount style is specified. The adjustable ball joint accommodates minor wall-arm angle variations, making it practical for retrofit installs. Five spray settings give end users control over spray pattern and intensity without any additional hardware. The chrome finish is compatible with standard chrome fixture trim packages found in residential bathrooms.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed plumber or qualified DIYer familiar with residential plumbing fixtures. Shut off the water supply before removing the existing shower head. Use plumber's tape (PTFE) on the shower arm threads before threading on the new head. Do not over-tighten the plastic ball joint connection; hand-tight plus a quarter turn with pliers is generally sufficient to seat the seal without cracking the fitting.
