Title: Shower head

Abstract: A multi-nozzle shower head having a housing secured to a holder and a nozzle section with a plurality of nozzles rotatably mounted on the housing. The housing and nozzle section each have a wall transverse to the flow of water. The housing wall has a water passage opening spaced from the center of rotation by the same distance as each of the plurality of nozzles so that only one nozzle may register therewith at a time. A separator plate is rotatable with the nozzle section but is mounted to bear against the side of the housing wall opposite that with respect to which the nozzle section rotates. This separator plate maintains the contact and parallel relation between the walls and supports the walls to prevent any tilt which might result in transverse leakage. In addition the nozzle section is gasketed to prevent transverse leakage within the nozzle section from nozzle to nozzle.
