will this work with hand showers (with a hose attached) or will the shower head just fall off??

you need a separate outlet or diverter to connect the hose in addition to the shower head.

I suppose that technically it could, but if you did, the shower handle would be pointing parallel to the shower floor, and the water would be coming down at you and the hose would be just hanging in the same spot that the water comes down at. That's what I'm picturing anyway. We use it with a rain shower head. So I have no actual experience with the the part you are asking about. Hope this helps! :)

Purchased this "Right Angle Shower Arm Chrome" to use as a Hand Shower. Attach a hose and a regular shower head of your choice and your good to go. Don't forget to use teflon tape.

I installed mine several months ago. It is the ultimate in shower fixture engineering. To switch between hand held and shower head is a single smooth twist of the left handle. Once you get your preferred water temperature set you only have to use the left handle to turn off and on. Best thing I have invested in.

I actually bought one with hose attached but have not installed the unit. I'm retired in Thailand and changed all my shower heads with these shower heads. They are great?

I have mine in a standard 1/2 inch thread shower head. If your hand held shower screws on the top where a standard head goes, it will work fine. Very good product. Recommended.

It might be easier to install with the included head, but I used my own head with shower hose and it works fine. The fittings are standard size so it should work just as well with any shower head.

I really don't know the diameters. I ordered to aid with showering while using a shower bench. The hose connectors are standard size and will fit I would think nearly any hand held shower head. The length is perfect and the hose is very flexible. I think this is well worth the money. Good luck

Hi Kenzo, shower heads installed directly to your shower pipe are always going to be stronger than hand helds. It won't be a significant amount to the shower head but you'll be running water through a long hose before it gets to the trigger so it will not be as strong as the fixed shower head. Hope that helps. :)

I'm not sure. I've always had a hand held shower - but this is the best hose I have ever had and I've had many different hand held showers through the years! It is very flexible and looks nice too. Not stiff like the ones that come with the hand held showers.

I would suggest using hooks for if its on the shower head it might slip off..

If you don't have the hose you will need the hose. If you want a holder for it (so it can function as a regular shower head, mounted to wall) you will need the part to hold it. We had a hose from previous hose/handheld shower thing, but our holder was broken by kiddos trying to play with it. So we just ordered a holder piece.

Remove the current shower head and attach the hose in it's place. Be sure to use Teflon tape on the joint.

no... we bought an extension hose for our outside camper shower. (It is designed for a portable shower.) we took a umbrella stand and a metal pole to anchor our shower head worked great.

Okay, here's my followup. I took the hand held shower head off the hose, and turned on the water - there was no restriction I could detect. The only thing I still find mildly disappointing is that the hose is somewhat stiff, and has never straightened out, or lost 100% of it's 'memory' of the coil and bends it came with. On the other hand I can't find a smooth white shower hose of this length at any bath shop or home improvement store - so I can live with those flaws. I will however keep my eyes open for a better hose to replace it.

I use a very low flow hand held shower head on the hose, so to answer your question I will have to first remove that to observe the actual pressure coming out of the hose, then remove the hose to compare the water pressure before the hose. I think I'll have time to do that tomorrow. I'll get back to you.

I emailed Plumbmajic and they said >>>"this faucet is for filling the tub only, you can't add (Hand held) to this faucet. I do have different faucets that will work but do you want a shower with a riser and shower head or a faucet with a hand held shower on top? Let me know and I will send you pics.Thanks, Kathy 1-800-872-9577

When in the position that allows both the hand held and shower head to spray water...YES If position on only shower head or only hand held, I don't notice any pressure loss

I have a hand held shower too, but there is a pipe that comes from the wall. I unscrewed the hand held shower head from the pipe in the wall and just screwed in the Rainshowe'r filter and then screwed in the hand held shower to the filter.. it was very easy.. and I am a woman and did this myself..
