OK, I realize this is a weird post for an IT blog. But I support wildlife conservationists who work in very remote areas. The water they use is from boreholes or wells and the quality of the water is, well, whatever it is. As long as it's not noxious, they will use it untreated. And more likely than not, the water is hard.
Hard water contains dissolved minerals (usually calcium or magnesium carbonate). Whenever the water is used (bathroom, kitchen, wherever), water droplets are invariably left behind. And when they evaporate the minerals that were in them remain.
Showerhead nozzles are usually fine enough that they will become restricted or clog after only a few weeks of use. You can dissolve the minerals with vinegar. But it is much easier to have the flexible silicone rubber nozzles that can simply be wiggled back and forth to break off any build up.
It looks like most of the top-rated showerheads at Amazon qualify. But if you are buying elsewhere, be sure this is one of the features! It will make your life (or the life of whomever is cleaning the shower) much easier!
In some extreme cases you may want to get silicone rubber nozzles for your kitchen and bathroom sinks too.
Hey Dave, Nice post your post is very informative. I have read your article and it is very useful I will surely try this. I have the same post as you where I tell how to clean shower head. If you have time to visit it then check it.
