The water that comes through them is used to wash our bodies and the bodies of our children too, so one might assume that it will be clean since clean water comes out of it.

      I would follow the same instructions, but maybe instead of tying the baggie around it, you can just place the shower head in a bowl of vinegar. It would also probably be a good idea to remove the hose and flush it with vinegar too. Hope this helps!
