That knob you turn to get the shower head spraying water is the problem. it never was the head at all. Remove that knob and take the whole thing to hardware store. They can match you up with what you need and only what you need. When it comes to water parts size is important and they can't gu

Blake, I've had great results soaking the head in vinegar. I know it sounds a little weird, but it has kept my water-pick shower massage head working for over 30 years. Every couple of years I soak it over night in a bowl of vinegar. I've heard from others that 30 minutes is enough. Betsy At
