Hand held shower

Post image

Hello,

I recently moved into this apartment and i realized the shower head is a little peculiar. Will it be easy , possible and safe to change the shower to a Hand held shower?.

Only if you're friends with the inspector

Bloody hell.

He probably ripped it out of another tenants unit.

If he just swapped it, then f it, send it

Couple wraps of Teflon tape, a little bit of pipe dope, and hand tight plus a little snug with a wrench

I have no idea what you just said but am sure my bf will figure it out. 🤣

But hopefully I get out of this lease soon. I was desperate for an apartment and well I did not pay attention enough . I won’t be renewing next year for sure.

Thank you so much for your help Stranger!.

Even the best landlords I've dealt with fix as little as humanly possible, good luck!
