A shower is a great way to wash your hair and body while letting the warm water relax your body at the same time. Many people use a daily shower in the morning to wake themselves up and get ready for work. In recent years water conservationists have managed to get shower head companies to produce more and more low flow and low pressure shower heads that save water. Unfortunately, consumers weren't too happy with this decision since too many modern shower heads leave us wanting more water at higher pressure. If you have moved into an apartment or house recently that has low flow shower heads, consider buying an alternative and get back to those shower heads that give you plenty of water pressure and leave you feeling fully rinsed and clean. I can understand low flow shower heads and why they were developed, but consumers deserve a choice and finding the right shower head should be one of them. There are essentially 2 types of shower heads - handheld or fixed. Fixed showerheads are mounted to the wall of the shower and don't come off. Hand-held shower heads, on the other hand, have a flexible hose or tube that allows you to take the shower head off the connection on the wall and gives you a much larger range of motion when showering. Many parents find hand held showerheads perfect for giving little children showers or even pets. I prefer a handheld shower head so that I can quickly rinse off any excess soap or shampoo that might have been left over from the shower. Many showerheads are place on the wall so that they can accommodate people of average height. If you are either tall or short, make sure you get a shower head that has an adjustable height feature on it. Low flow shower heads are great for energy saving and there are even special kinds for homes that already have low water pressure to begin with. Consider a shower head with a cut-off valve so that halt the stream of water completely when shampooing or lathering up with soap. Those that love showers realize the relaxing nature of water running over your body so owning a shower head that massages you while cleaning is important. There are a variety of spray patterns available in shower heads, many of them have over 25 options. The most popular being fine mist pattern, massaging swirl pattern, drenching rain pattern, and a sharp spray. If you are so inclined, you can even get dual shower heads installed in your shower for the ultimate in relaxation.

Low Flow Shower Heads: The numbers are staggering with almost 3 billion gallons of water used daily for showers in the United States and almost half of that water goes wasted since the majority of showerheads use twice the amount of water needed for a cleansing shower. Water is potentially a limited resource on Earth and trying to save and conserve it will probably be mandatory over the next few decades. Buying a low flow shower head means you can do your part in conserving water for the next generations to use. The original low flow shower heads were insufficient in many ways and led to many people thinking that even the modern low pressure shower heads are no good. That is not true anymore since manufacturers have gotten better at reducing water flow while maintaining a reasonable stream on low slow shower heads. We have heard of some people complaining that when someone flushes the toilet and they are in the shower with a low flow shower head, the hot water increases and scalding can occur. This is no myth and should be looked into if it happens in your house. A simple fix is to let a plumber install an anti-scald valve which ensures the proper mix of both cold and hot water even when a toilet gets flushed.
