Invigorate Your Mornings with New 5-Function Showerheads and Hand Showers from American Standard
Enjoy multiple spray patterns from the same showerhead with the flick of a finger
PISCATAWAY, N.J. (December 13, 2010) — A quartet of new multi-function showerheads and hand showers from American Standard are the hands-down winners fordelivering the perfect shower. Enjoy the simple luxury of five invigorating spray options all from a single showerhead.
Available in both modern and traditional designs, four stylish showerheads and hand showers offer five relaxing spray pattern options — a wide full spray; a combination full-massage spray; a therapeutic massage spray; a combination massage-power mist spray and a power mist spray — for a personalized shower experience each and every use.
A flick of the finger or thumb is all it takes to select from among the multiple spray pattern options – a task made easy, even with wet, soapy hands.
The new showerheads and hand showers use a pressure compensating flow control to provide a full flow rate regardless of water pressure. In addition to the collection’s ergonomic comfort and ease-of-use, eachshower face is designed for trouble-free operation and cleaning.
Shower System Package
Double the convenience and spa-like luxury with an American Standard®Shower System that features a 5-function personal hand shower, a 24-inch slide bar and a generous 60-inch reinforced hose designed to provide generous freedom of movement. The slide bar push-button bracket easily rotates for left- or right-handed adjustment of the hand shower.
Both the Shower System and hand shower models allow users to shower while seated, pinpointing sore muscles with therapeutic massaging action. Hand showers also make other tasks – like bathing kids and pets or cleaning the shower a breeze.
Each model provides a powerful 2.5 gallons per minute (gpm) flow rate and is available in polished chrome or satin nickel, durable finishes that coordinate with other American Standard bathroom products. Suggested retail prices start at $75.
