Suihkusuuttimella, often translated as showerhead, is a device that disperses water in a spray, typically for showering. It is a fundamental component of most modern bathrooms, providing a means for personal hygiene. The design of a showerhead can vary significantly, influencing the water flow pattern, pressure, and overall showering experience.

Early showerheads were often simple perforated discs. Over time, technological advancements have led to a wide array of options. These include fixed showerheads mounted on the wall, adjustable showerheads that allow for different spray patterns and angles, and handheld showerheads connected by a flexible hose, offering greater maneuverability. More advanced models may feature multiple spray settings, such as massage, rain, or jet functions, controlled by a dial or button.

Materials used in the construction of showerheads range from durable plastics to various metals like brass, stainless steel, and chrome-plated alloys. The type of material can affect durability, aesthetics, and cost. Water conservation is also a significant consideration in showerhead design. Many modern showerheads are designed with flow restrictors to reduce water consumption without significantly compromising water pressure, contributing to environmental sustainability. The installation and maintenance of a showerhead are generally straightforward, usually involving screwing it onto a shower arm. Regular cleaning is recommended to prevent mineral buildup and maintain optimal performance.
