The showerheads are problematical. The fittings on the hoses don't fit ordinary sink type shower heads .

I was working on the Seagull water filter and noticed that they are not NPT threads like normal pipe. I found out that they are compression fitting threads which are a finer thread than NPT. Possibly the shower head is a compression fitting thread.

I found an adapter at my local hardware store.
