Hi! I am Drew Fenn professional home inspector. I am here for Expertvillage.com. Today, we are going to install a shower head and I will show you how and the video is produced by Black Dog Video. You can blackdogvideo.biz on the internet. Now you have new shower head we are going to install on the boom that we put up here the extension and it has the other installations we have to Teflon tape this. So the end of the boom we are going to Teflon tape, three revolutions, to be carefully, you don’t want Teflon tape hanging out into the water flow stream and make sure it is a above that. This is a very small threaded area, so it is a little more difficult to get on in it was on the other ones. Then three revolutions, we break the tape, remember to do counter clockwise. I will thread this on and we have got to be very careful, we don’t cross thread. So we… now see it was little cross threaded so back it off and start again. It has gone on nice and smoothly so we don’t have a cross thread. Now you might notice something edge here there is two little machine divots on here, that is where we can put a wrench on it and give it a final tightening. Got a wrench, adjust it and we will snug this down. Okay! There we are. We are all set and ready to go with the main shower head.
