Before you throw out a shower head that just doesn't spray right. Soak it in vinegar/baking soda. Remove shower head. Set in big bowl with spray side down. Sprinkle baking soda into inlet hole (a couple teaspoons should do) now pour vinegar in, enough to cover the head. Watch crud boil away. Soak over night. Wrap threads of shower inlet pipe with plumbers tape and reconnect.

If your showerhead is not running as fast as it used to, take a small plastic bag and half-fill with vinegar and attach it to your shower.

Tip: Cleaning the Showerhead

If your showerhead is not running as fast as it used to, take a small plastic bag and half-fill with vinegar and attach it to your shower. Leave this on over night or longer and when it is removed, you should notice a lot more water pressure. I've used a rubber band to attach the bag.
