🚿 Budget Cleaning Tip: the showerhead that's lost its pressure
Weak, spitty shower spray? It's usually mineral buildup, not a broken showerhead. Here's the pennies fix: fill a sturdy plastic bag with white vinegar, tie it around the showerhead so it's fully submerged, and let it soak 1–2 hours. Then remove the bag, run the shower for a minute to flush it out, and wipe it down. Good as new, for basically nothing. 🙌
And the honest safety part, because a good cleaner tells you the whole truth:
⚠️ NEVER mix vinegar with bleach — that creates dangerous gas. Pick one or the other, never both.
⚠️ Keep vinegar OFF marble, granite, and natural stone — the acid can etch them.
⚠️ Run the shower and let everything rinse and dry before the kids and pets are back in the tub area.
Cheap, simple, safer — with the warnings included. That's how we do it at AnH. 💛
