What Is the Preferred Height for Mounting Hand Showers?

Between 1.7 and 1.8 metres is the preferred height for mounting hand showers for the most convenient use. If you are just changing an old showerhead for a new, fixed hand shower, then the shower arm in the wall is already installed, so you don’t get the option of height. It needs to be bolted into the pipe where it sits in the wall currently. In the majority of the cases, you’ll find it mounted somewhere around the 1.8m marks.

• If you’re exchanging the current showerhead with a sliding rail hand shower, then you’ll have the choice of modifying the height of the showerhead to match your preference.
• If you’re fastening an overhead with a rail shower, then most of the hand showers stand on a bracket fixed to a shower rail. You can alter the height of the hand shower similar to the sliding rail hand shower.
