How do water efficient shower heads work?
Water efficient shower heads work by restricting the volume of water that flows through them. But does it affect your showering experience? Not at all. Water is squeezed through tiny spray jets, releasing it at high pressure, giving the illusion of higher water volume. Shower heads we install have a flow rate of only 7.5L per minute. They are designed to deliver the best shower experience.
How to check if your shower head is water-efficient?
- Place a bucket under your shower head
- Turn on the shower at water temperature and flow you use for 15 seconds
- Multiply collected amount by 4 to get the litres per minute
- If it’s over 9 litres, your current shower is not water efficient and you could benefit from our shower head.
