I've changed showerheads before without using tape and not had much problem with leaks, but today I changed one and had leaks no matter how hard I tightened. I went to Home Depot, bought a small spool of teflon tape for about a dollar, and voila, no more leaks! I will definitely use the tape from now on.

10 yrs later and this video still kicks ass thanks.

This 11 year old video was during a time when youtube videos did not b.s. you with 10 minute filler "knowledge" in the form of "please like share subscribed," trailing off into sub topics, pointing out things that are unnecessary, comedy, repeating themselves and finally getting to the thumbnail topic but then explaining it in a way that's bleeeep. Then distracting you from this with entertainment so you forget your time was wasted and you end up liking the video anyway.

I bought a replacement shower head online and it didn't come with any instructions or anything, just the shower head. I was worried that I wouldn't be able to replace it.

Wiring is not fun and can be dangerous. You don't know who did what, when or how. My dad was very handy when he could see (glaucoma, like Ray Charles) and he was doing some wiring standing on a radiator. Yeah. He felt a buzzing in his legs! Had he been barefoot, it could have been EXTREMELY BAD. That's one of those things, you always want solid rubber soled shoes and a plan if it goes to hell. An assistant. With a broom handle. If you get a good zap on A/C, it can make you grab on and you won't be able to let go. Wood doesn't conduct electricity. You give the zapped person a good whack or a pry to get them away. DON'T TOUCH THEM. You'll get zapped, too! There's one up here where the metal back of a fridge became a serious conductor. The electrician showed not only could it light a light bulb (low draw), but it ran power tools (!?) Just fine, too! Power tools, heating/cooling things, air fryers/hair dryers, curling irons are HIGH DRAW things. In old houses, or houses you don't know EXTREMELY WELL, you can kill yourself. Or blow a fuse, at the very least. Which isn't good and you don't wanna go there often. Knowing the house EXTREMELY well, means you know ALL the circuits and what's on them.* All the outlets are wired correctly (10.00 tool at hardware store, you just plug it in and it tells you. It's idiot-proof), all junction boxes are right, all light fixtures, all of it. Anything 6 feet or less to WATER, needs to be GFCI (ground fault circuit interrupter). It has little reset buttons on it. NEVER, EVER assume it was "done right!" Don't assume a man knows/cares wtf he's doing. Even if he's LICENSED! Don't assume any company has a licensed electrician. ASK, and get that IN WRITING. They'll send someone over, CHARGE YOU like they have an electrician's license, and they don't! Never assume a SIMPLE damn thing is done right! Unless you KNOW FOR A FACT, 1,000%! We're talking about something that can easily kill you. Don't be stupid. Don't stand in water/damp. Don't go without heavy rubber soled shoes. Don't plug cell in where there's no GFCI in bath/kitchen/where water/damp is. A girl was killed for lack of GFCI from an extremely low draw cell charger. She was in the tub. It SHOULD have made the circuit shut off! See? *if you don't know what a circuit is, you should be supervised before doing anything. Not being mean, it can just mess you up. Been zapped a few times. Light switch as a kid. Pond pump that WAS on GFCI (had to reset when it rained!) And it STILL zapped me! It SHOULDN'T have. But, did I KNOW, 1,000% for a fact, WHO wired it, HOW they did it and if it was even RIGHT in the first place (obviously not, if I got shocked!) A: NO. My OWN fault! I WAS wearing heavy soled rubber shoes, too! Trust NOBODY, Scully! Remember, rubber doesn't conduct electricity. Neither does plastic or wood. Electricity is always trying to get to the ground. Don't ever get in its way. Well worth it to hire a LICENSED electrician to show you some stuff. Use library to read up on that. Time Life books has a whole series on Home Improvement. Make sure it's been revised. Codes change over time. You want to know all about fuses, circuits and all that FIRST. The basics, at least. Plumbing GENERALLY can't kill you, THO my cousin wired up conduit (metal tube for wires) next to plumbing, which is BEYOND STUPID. And he IS a licensed electrician!! Case in point! So, when it leaks, (eventually, it will) it's right next to wiring! Great move, huh!?

This was a simple, easy to follow video! Thank You- I successfully removed the old head and installed a new one with a handheld shower. It's the little things

this is more important than anything ive ever seen.

Fast, simple, to the point! Thank you!!

It's always good to have videos like this.

This is awesome! Did it by myself

Omg the most simple Awesome 👌 video ever. ALL OTHER VIDEOS THEY TALK UNWANTED THINGS AND ANNOY. THIS VIDEO IS EXACTLY WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR. THANK U SO MUCH!!😊

did it with bare hands, not as tight as if it would be with wrench probably but still works. thank you for the video!

Thank you so much. Just did it. This video was so helpful!

A good quality shower is a quality of life boost. Also, the water sealing is mostly done by the O-ring. The Teflon tape lubricates & protects the threads, and helps maintain tightness. It also aids in preventing a leak, but the O-ring mostly does that. You should still definitely use tape. I had a junk shower head I dealt with for years in my old apartment. Installing a new head transformed the experience!

This seems easy enough.. I will see this weekend

Perfect!! Got it installed perfectly. Thanks!!

You can use a scouring/scratch pad or the reverse rough side of sponge to remove old sealant tape or anything else in the grooves if you don't have an old tooth brush.

Thank you so much for this guide!! I realized that I was such a dummy before but many many thanks to this video!!!

Great instructional video. Made installing a new shower head a easy.

Yippee, 😊 without you guys, would be dragging the garden hose into the bathroom..🤭Thank you

Our master bathroom has a standing shower with handheld shower head. We started to see some rust spots in the hose not to mention heavy mineral built ups in the shower head because our house has very hard water despite water softener we have. My wife picked out this handheld shower head to replace our old one because she loves the brush nickel finish to match our bathroom decors but this turned out to be very impressive handheld shower head. Although I have replaced shower heads many times in the past, it came with nice instruction on how to replace it for those who's not familiar with it. My only advise would be to use wrench to hold the base spout when removing and installing the holding adapter so you don't accidently twist and damage the base pipe when you over tighten it. I really appreciate that it came with plenty of plumber's tape because you really want to put that on before connecting different parts so that there's no water leak in between threads. This is one of most common mistakes and reasons why there's leak after installing it. Very happy to see that they have provided plumber's tape to remind you to use it! It also had rubber rings/washers in each connector but it also came with extra one, which is nice. They also included a shower drain cover to prevent hair from going in to the drainage, which is a nice bonus. I really love the brush nickel finish, which makes it look elegant and expensive. The 7 different water spray setting is nice to have so you can change it for different purpose. We will most likely leave it on one setting for most of the times but it's nice to have option to change it when needed, such as jet spray for cleaning the shower wall, etc. After replacing the shower head, I didn't see any leak and the stainless steel hose feels sturdy. I also like that I can rotate and tilt the shower head holder and it stays in place. Overall, very happy with this shower head! amzn.to/3gVZIrH

The tip about wrapping tape clock-wise is a nice helper that most people wouldn't even think about.

It's just me and my mother and neither of us are very good with this sort of thing so this video helped us a lot, thanks!

thanks, did it in like 5 min and it works great

Thank you for your instructions, as Dummies I have learned so much from Master 🥰

thank you ! very easy & you listed items needed

Omg took me 3 minutes! Love videos that dont tell me 25 minutes stories about their dead grandpa. Switched out both showerheads in less than 10 minutes!!!

Even though I qualify for DummyHood, I still want to thank you for the information. I didn't think about wrapping the tape clockwise so thanks.

So easy, thank you!

Make friends with controlled corrosive cleaners. 30% vinegar is one. CLR is another. DON'T get these one you. Wear goggles, jic. They burn. Copper brushes work well, too. Sometimes, you can't get any further, so make friends with a plumber and cook for them or give them a lot of referrals for a discount. Tip them a good 50, too, if they ran right over or picked up the phone at midnight. Ask them to show you stuff while they're there, as none of this is this simple in reality. Lol. Kitchen faucets are THE WORST. I'd GLADLY pay them for that. You can get it, with the faucet tool (can't be done w/o it) but you STILL can't grab it! If there's a trick to it, I'd pay to know what that is.

Okay this really helps because i live in an apartment and i wanna switch mine out for a nicer one.

@emilycoleman3067

I just had this problem, too, Robert. Do you have what we call a "cheater bar"? It's a hollow pipe of some pipe that will fit over your crescent wrench handle. This should give you enough leverage with its added length to get it unstuck. I just did it.

Hi, nice video. I have been living in an older apartment building for over 10 years. My unit has 6" shower arm with 1/2" connection with IPS thread and shower head with 1/2" connection with IPS connection. All new shower arm and heads I found has NPT connections. IPS connection and NPT connection do not match. But can I take out my current IPS connection shower arm and install NPT connection shower arm? Like I was thinking of getting rid of both the old 1/2" IPS thread shower arm and shower head first. And then install a new 1/2" NPT threading shower arm with teflon tape to prevent water leaks and NPT shower heads in their place. Is that possible if the wall holes accommodate? Is it even recommended to replace IPS shower arm with NPT connection in an older apartment unit? Can you or anyone please help with answers? Thank you.

Is the pipe tape necessary? I just wanted to know if it was okay to use an adjustable wrench. Didn't expect to be told I need something else.
