How to Change a shower head and install a hand shower system

If you've been thinking about replacing your old shower head with a new model, or maybe even adding a hand shower, you'll be glad to know it's a pretty simple process. To replace the shower head, you don't even have to shut off the water supply. You just twist off the old one, replace the thread tape and twist on the new one. The hand shower system is a little more complicated, but Lowe's and Delta show you how.

To complete this project, you'll need an adjustable wrench, thread seal tape, drill and 1/4" bit, rubber mallet, screwdriver, screws and anchors and a leveling tool.
