Delta Water Amplifying Shower Head
| I recently picked up the Delta Fluidics Adjustable Shower Head. I already head a 2.5 gpm navy shower head but never liked it’s look and it actually cooled the water as it delivered it to you. If the shower head considerably mists the water that actually cools the water being delivered to you. So although you are using less water than a normal showerhead, you are using more hot water than you need to because you are continually turning up the hot water.The Delta Fluidics Adjustable Shower Head doesn’t mist the water as much and actually feels like its delivering more water to you. It is adjustable between 1.8 gpm and 2.5 gpm. Since it doesn’t cool the water as much, you also use less hot water.My first water saving appliance was the 1.6 gpf toilet. I switched two 5 gallon toilets out with these water saving units and watched my water bill drop by a third. I’ll be interested to watch my water bill with the new shower head working at 1.8 gpm and it may have an impact on my natural gas bill as well if I do indeed use less hot water in the shower. Check it out, it’s only $25 and you get free super saver shipping at Amazon. |
Update: A nice little benefit to this showerhead is that since it does not mist so much, your showers will be less steamy and thus less fogging on your mirror.
Update: Ok, let’s start measuring the savings, shall we? From 11/14/2007 through 02/16/2008, I used 11 CCF of water. Around the middle of May, I should get my next water bill. It will be interesting to see what water savings has resulted. Also, the Delta Shower Head seems unaffected by toilet flushings during shower time (at least when running in 1.8 GPM mode) - not bad!
