Log

Educational simulation. Geometry is parametric and not to scale; scores illustrate procedure, not real hydraulic performance. Follow your fixture's instructions and local codes when working on a real shower.

What it models

A parametric shower head: arm, collar, gasket, body, faceplate, nozzles, inlet screen and flow restrictor. Supply pressure, scale thickness, restrictor state and collar torque are all live inputs.

How it scores

Steps completed, scale removed, flow restored and safety. Removing the head with the water on costs safety points and sprays water; over-tightening the collar deforms the gasket and starts a leak.

What it does not do

It is not a hydraulic calculator and it does not know your fixture. Use the flow calculator for numbers, and the repair guide for the real procedure.
