        "text": "A handheld showerhead is often useful for seated bathing, cleaning, and assisting another person, but its position should be reachable without stepping into the spray. A pressure-balancing or thermostatic control may also be appropriate depending on the system and applicable requirements. Local bathroom guidance identifies scald-protection valve types and control placement as important considerations.\n\nThe final location must account for the user, seat, glass, and existing supply lines.\n\nKey factors:\n- Control reach from the entry and seat\n- Hose length and holder height\n- Fixed showerhead direction\n- Valve compatibility and water pressure\n\nList who will use the shower and whether seated operation matters before rough plumbing. Ask for control and spray locations on the plan, not just in a product list.\n\nEarly fixture planning helps avoid inaccessible controls after tile is complete.",
