Why Your Shower Head Keeps Blocking
4/24/2026
Uneven or sideways spray usually means blocked nozzles. Here's how to fix it and stop it coming back.
Shower heads are one of the first places where limescale shows up. If your shower spray becomes uneven, weak or sprays sideways, the nozzles are probably blocked.
Regularly soaking the shower head in a limescale remover can help. If the problem keeps returning quickly, you may benefit from a water conditioner or scale protection system.
