Can I use it on a 40 year old shower pipe in my apartment? I'm afraid it will be heavy

In my honest opinion I think it could work. I also live in a old apartment and it worked for me. Also make sure you have a shower caddy that you can take off easy it it hard to get around the shower head if you don't. The showerhead is pretty light it is just plastic so you should be fine.

No, it will not harm old pipes, but it will clean old waste that is in the pipes.

I would say not unless you run it through conduit or PVC. This is not as heavy as we use to use but it worked great for our lp gas lines which was above ground.

This is not heavy duty. I can make a heavy duty galvanized steel pipe frame, contact my office.

I used it in the kitchen and I go from brass to PVC (plastic) drain pipes. It did not hurt either of them. Be sure to use as directed. It works great!

Would be a pretty weak shower. It works at like a 1/2 GPM. A 220v unit would likely be better for a shower.

Sure, it comes with three different sizes of adapters, so you could put it on your shower, you shouldn't have any problems.

Unless you have some kind of home made shower head this will fit your pipe if not you can reduce it with a coupler, if you have a Regular shower head installed this will fit. My home is 26 years old and it took me all of 5 minutes to install and I'm 68.

I am using it as such in our newly renovated master bath. It is quite heavy and probably not very practical but it looks great and seems pretty sturdy. Good luck!

I use a faucet to shower converter.. see if you can find one thats long enough for your needs

Would think it would be fine. It doesn't get hot enough to melt or soften the pipe.

I think it will. I live in a very old house with convoluted pipes that cannot be snaked. I used this product exactly as stated for unclogging drains and the drain better than they ever had. The maintenance is only two teaspoons a week so I expect it will last. Grease is organic and the enzymes should eat it up. I had some grease in my drain...don't know how much you have but I like this product a lot.

Yes, you can. The pipe piece slides down into the two ends. I've had this up in my renovated shower for about 8 months and it looks good and works great.

I wouldn't recommend this for a height over about 12-15 feet. The pipe would get unweildy and heavy. Also the outlet shoots air to the side which produces a sideways force(torque) on the pipe that you must manually counter. With twice the height, you get twice the weight and twice the torque. It will tire you out quickly.

The pipe is the same thread as "most" if not ALL typical shower extension pipes ....if this screws into your wall, then it will since it would be the same. "Most" (have to say most) showers have 1/2 inch NPT (national pipe thread) so its a matter of removing your current semi straight shower extension pipe and head and then screw this one in, then put your head on this one. BTW : be sure you have the clearance to swing this larger ext. pipe around but I'm guessing if you need to raise it up that's its probably pretty far from the ceiling/soffit anyway.

Yes. I originally bought it for a slow shower drain, and all of my pipes are PVC.

My guess is that because the pressure is less than in home plumbing, this would work. It might be hard to wrap it tightly around small flexible tubing. This needs to be stretched and wrapped tightly.
