Hi everyone,
I live in an apartment building and our maintenance team just replaced our shower head while doing some other work in the bathroom. Unfortunately, our shower now makes an awful high pitched squealing noise every time we use it. Maintenance has said this is the only brand of showerhead they have and they don't know why it's squealing. We don't have access to change the water pressure and it wasn't doing this with our old showerhead. They've offered to install a different showerhead if we buy one, but I don't know how to guarantee that a different style won't have the same problem. Any suggestions for how to hack this problem or what kind of new showerhead to buy?
(PS. I know that technically this is the building's problem to fix, but it may not be worth our time to fight them on it or to arrange to be home multiple times so they can try different fixes.)
