Abstract

An improved retainer clamp is disclosed for selectively and securely supporting a handheld showerhead so to as prevent any accidental dislodgement of the showerhead from the retainer clamp. The handheld showerhead is adapted to be connected, via a flexible conduit, with a source of water under pressure, such as the conventional shower pipe fitting normally found in bathrooms and the like, and may be supported by retainer clamp both while water is being sprayed from the showerhead and when the showerhead is not in use. The retainer clamp may be directly mounted on the shower fitting pipe and also may serve as the interconnection between the flexible conduit and the shower fitting pipe.
