You might want to change the shower head in your bathroom. This is a relatively easy project, but you'll need some tools. First, you'll need a flat file (No. 10 means ten inches long). Next, you'll need Teflon tape (you can buy some at any hardware store), and then you'll need to remove the old shower head's pipe and arm. Once you've removed the old parts, you can install the new one.

If you want to change the temperature of water, a thermostatic valve is a better choice. This valve will react to changes in temperature to adjust the water flow. However, it won't regulate volume or turn the water on or off. Three-handle faucets have separate handles for hot and cold water, plus an additional one for diverting the water. The shower and tub trim has the showerhead arm and trim plate, and is used to connect the hot and cold water pipes. These parts also work together to control the flow.

The last step is to wrap a piece of Teflon tape around the old pipe. It is important that the tape cover the nipple and threading of the replacement shower tube. Otherwise, you'll have a wet shower. This is why a Teflon tape is essential for the repair. If you've broken a tube, make sure you have enough tape to stop the water from flowing. The shower tube should be waterproof.
