It is amazing how much better the shower head works now.
I have had the same problem over the years. (We have been here 10 1/2). My solution is to fill a zip lock back with straight white vinegar, attach it over the shower head and secure with a rubber band . I usually leave it overnight and when I turn on the shower next morning I’m reminded to take it off. 😃
