Is there anything better than having a nice hotish shower to relax after a long day at work or maybe a hard morning workout? People of the world love showers. Sometimes you might start loving your shower and then feel something else starting…something bigger. You have to keep things in perspective, you’re in the shower(wink). Anyway, don’t get all hot and flustered, we’ll get you started on the right track.
Make sure you have a shower head already installed.

If you don’t, then you’ll need to make sure that your new shower valve will fit the pipe diameter of your old shower valve. You should be able to measure the diameter of your existing shower valve and then compare it to the dimensions listed on the packaging of the new product. If they’re not close enough, you may have to buy a separate adapter or replacement pipe that gets rid of some of the extra space.
You might also want to consider installing a new handheld showerhead in addition to your new mixer valve if you don’t already have one in place. It’s possible that one or both of your hands will be occupied with opening and closing valves during your shower — especially if you have any mobility issues — so having a handheld hose nearby can make things easier and safer for you while saving water too!
If you’re installing a new shower head, make sure you have a shower head already installed. The old one should be removed with a pair of pliers and some muscle. If it’s stuck, you can use mineral spirits to loosen its grip (just don’t get any on the rest of your plumbing).
If you’re replacing an existing shower head with a new one, the process is similar: Unscrew the old shower head from its pipe and remove it from the wall or ceiling. Then screw in your new one, attach it to the pipe and make sure everything is aligned properly.
Ensure that the shower stream is aimed down at the floor and not directly at your body.

If you have a shower head with an adjustable nozzle, ensure that it’s pointing down to prevent water being sprayed directly onto the body.
Keep your bathroom door closed when you’re in the shower, and make sure that no one else uses the bathroom while you’re in there.
If you’re using a bathtub, ensure that it’s properly drained after use so that no one else can take a bath or shower in it until it’s been thoroughly cleaned and disinfected.
One of the most common causes of injury in the home is slipping in the shower. The following tips can help prevent this type of accident:
Ensure that the shower stream is aimed down at the floor and not directly at your body. Ensure that there are no obstructions in front of or behind you, such as soap bars or shampoo bottles, which may cause you to lose your balance when stepping into or out of the shower.
Keep slippery surfaces like wet bath mats and tile floors clean and dry. Consider using a shower caddy to organize products so they’re out of reach while bathing.
Use non-slip shower mats or grab bars if needed. If you have limited mobility, it’s important to install grab bars in both tubs and showers so you have something to hold onto when getting in or out.
Position the shower head so water doesn’t hit sensitive parts of your body.
Showering can be a relaxing, refreshing way to start your day. But if you’re not careful, it can also be painful and damaging.
Here are several ways to avoid showering trouble:
Position the shower head so water doesn’t hit sensitive parts of your body. If you have a low-flow showerhead, don’t aim it at your face or hand when washing them. Instead, position it so that it’s aimed at your back or chest. And if you’ve got one of those adjustable heads, turn it to its lowest setting while you’re bathing.
If you like to stand up while showering, try using a stool or bench in place of a bathtub or shower stall. That way, you won’t have to bend over as much when washing yourself down below. If you’re too tall for this idea to work (or if you just don’t want to spend the money on furniture!), consider installing a wall-mounted seat rail in your tub or shower stall — they’re inexpensive and easy to install.*
If you suffer from arthritis or other joint problems, consider adding grab bars near the shower entrance so that getting into and out of the tub is easier on your body.*
Turn the water on, using warm water to loosen up the muscles and create a relaxing experience.
If you are going to take a shower, you want it to be the best shower ever. A good shower should be relaxing and rejuvenating. You do not want to spend too much time in there, but you also do not want to rush through it either.

Start by washing your face with your favorite cleanser and then move down onto your neck and chest area where most men tend to sweat more than any other part of their body during exercise or work.
After that comes washing your back and then down onto your arms where most men tend to get dirty from working on cars or doing construction work outside all day long! You can even wash your hands while you’re at it!
Now that you’ve already washed all over, what’s left? Nothing but your legs! So grab some soap and start scrubbing away all those stubborn stains that have been.
