käsisuihkupää

Käsisuihkupää, often translated as handheld showerhead or hand shower, is a plumbing fixture designed for personal hygiene, typically used in bathrooms for showering. Unlike a fixed showerhead, a käsisuihkupää is connected to the water supply via a flexible hose, allowing for greater mobility and control over the water stream. This mobility enables users to direct the water spray more precisely, making it easier to rinse the entire body, wash hair thoroughly, or clean specific areas.

The design of a käsisuihkupää typically includes a nozzle head that can be held by hand and a hose of varying lengths. Many modern käsisuihkupäät offer multiple spray settings, such as a standard spray, massage jet, or a mist function, which can be adjusted by rotating a dial or pressing a button on the head. Some models also feature a pause button or trickle valve to temporarily stop or reduce water flow, which can be useful for conserving water during lathering or shaving.

Installation usually involves connecting the hose to a water outlet, often integrated with a shower valve or a diverter that can switch water flow between a fixed showerhead and the käsisuihkupää. They are commonly found in bathtubs, walk-in showers, and accessible bathrooms, providing convenience and a more personalized showering experience. The ease of use and versatility make käsisuihkupäät a popular choice for households worldwide.
