Upgrade your shower experience with a top-rated shower hose
A shower hose has the important function of connecting the shower head to the main body of the shower. Due to regular use and natural wear, the shower hose may need to be replaced more often than most of the other instalments in the bathroom. At vidaXL, you can find your new shower hose as well as other types of hoses for plumbing and supply lines and enjoy reliable quality at affordable prices.

Furthermore, you can select between various fire hoses intended for use in the installation of water pumps and intended to transport water in general. When dealing with an uncontrollable fire, always let professional firefighters handle it.
The fire hoses are made of weather-resistant materials, which provide great durability and ensure long-lasting use. It is important to emphasise that our fire hoses generally aren’t designed for professional firefighters or fixed firefighting systems.
How to select the perfect shower hose for your needs
Finding the right shower hose for your needs can sometimes be a challenging task, especially when you are building a new bathroom from the ground up or are installing a bathtub or a new showering area. To ensure that you pick a shower hose that is, first and foremost, usable and will last for a long enough time, you need to account for both length, material, appearance and couplings.
Choosing a fitting length for you shower hose
Shower hoses are available in different lengths. But the question is: What is the ideal length? The suitable length for your shower hose depends on numerous factors, such as: Is it for a shower or a bathtub? Do you usually sit or stand in the shower? Does the shower hose normally hang from a low bath mixer or a thermostatic shower? Do you have a shower rail? Is the shower system concealed inside the wall? And finally, how tall are you?
There is definitely a lot to consider. If you need a helping hand to make your decision a little easier, we provide you with three recommendations for ideal shower hose lengths:
- For the bathtub, we recommend shorter shower hoses at 1,25 metres, which prevents them from getting in your way.
- For the regular shower, a shower hose length of 1,50 metres usually suits the best. The length also enables you to move freely in the shower.
- If you want maximum movability and freedom when using the shower hose, a length of 2 metres might be for you.
A rule of thumb is to ensure that the shower hose is long enough to allow the shower head to be around 10 centimetres above the user’s head. As such, the placement of the water tap and the users' height define the ideal shower hose length for you.
Consider the material’s quality and appearance
For most people, a hose that can handle daily use for years to come is essential in their decision. As such, choosing a shower hose made of high-quality material is key. For many, the look of the hose is also important as it needs to match how you want to present your home or which other bathroom accessories you want it to match or complement. In every case, the specific material, including the surface treatment, defines the aesthetic and functional qualities.
Our shower hoses are available in various materials, such as PVC-plastic, rubber and stainless steel. Metal hoses are well-known for their high robustness and durability. Shower hoses in quality plastics are also quite durable and easy to clean. As for the colours, many of our variants come in the colour chrome, which offers a stylish, elegant look that is always on trend. You can also go for a black hose, which presents a modern, industrial look.
