Question from L.A.
My shower head has soft rubbery plastic where the water comes out. I don’t know the correct terms, but it’s the face of the shower head including the little holes where the jets of water come out.
I use a good shower filter but wonder whether the water could be picking up any chemicals from the shower head’s plastic after going through the filter.
I like this shower head but would it be safer to replace it with a chromed brass one?
Debra’s Answer
I’m not worried about this. The water is moving by so fast that any amount of plastic that would get into it would be negligible.
