Abstract
A showerhead having integrated filtration capabilities and configured for use with a handheld sprayer includes a housing having an inlet fluidly connectable to a fluid source. An outlet is in fluid communication with the inlet and configured to be fluidly connectable to the hose. A filter cartridge is selectively positionable within the housing between the inlet and the outlet, with the filter cartridge being configured to remove impurities from liquid passing therethrough. A holder is pivotally coupled to the housing and is configured to detachably engage with the handheld sprayer.

A showerhead having integrated filtration capabilities and configured for use with a handheld sprayer coupled to a hose, the showerhead comprising:
- a housing having:
- an inlet fluidly connectable to a fluid source;
- and
- an outlet in fluid communication with the inlet and configured to be fluidly connectable to the hose;
- a filter cartridge selectively positionable within the housing between the inlet and the outlet, the filter cartridge being configured to remove impurities from liquid passing therethrough;
- and
- a holder pivotally coupled to the housing and configured to detachably engage with the handheld sprayer, the holder being configured to receive a portion of the handheld sprayer along an engagement axis, the engagement axis being constrained to move within a first plane spaced from the housing when the holder pivots relative to the housing, the first plane remaining substantially parallel to a longitudinal axis of the housing throughout the pivotal movement.
