I need to replace a broken shower head. However it is part of what is apparently a non-standard system. The pipe which comes out from the wall does not have threads at the end. Instead it has a "ball" at the end which is not removable from the pipe and the collar which holds the shower head on the pipe remains on the pipe above the ball. Apparently this must have been a pipe/shower head system rolled all into one.
I have attached some pictures to show what I am talking about.
I need to replace the shower head. And I would like to do so without also replacing the pipe. I figure there are two ways to do this. First is to find a new shower head out there that will simply attach directly to my existing (approximately 1 1/8') collar.
The second approach would be to find a complete similar replacement system for this system...in other words, a new pipe/collar/shower head identical to what I already have and I would just use the shower head portion of the system.
Any ideas where I could find these? Or any other thoughts?
Thanks.
