Why Use Shower Head Water Saver?

By Rebecca Gibson


Every household around the country wants to cut on the amount of liquids they use. Shower head water saver has played a crucial role in actualizing this. Despite the reduced usage during a bath, one is still able to have a comfortable bath. Although a simple technology, it has proven to be important.

There are two technologies to choose from. An individual can go for a smaller compact head or an aerated system. The compact non-aerated device reduces the outflow by using pulses to produce a strong stream at a constant temperature. The holes in the sprinkling part are smaller when compared with the standard one. The aerated one releases pressurized liquid which reduces its usage exponentially.

The use of this appliance reasonably reduces the amount used for bathing. Research shows that ones bill can be reduced by up to 50% when this faucet is installed. As opposed to the traditional head which uses between three to eight gallons per minute, it just uses a mere 2.5 gallon per minute. The shower experience is not interfered with at all despite its economic advantage.

Also, it has a positive impact on the environment. Nowadays, the supply of clean quality waters has dwindled. Therefore, it is up to us to take the responsibility of minimizing its consumption. These saving faucets help to maintain a balance between the amount used and the one left for the environment. Primarily, it aids in decreasing the chances of its shortage.

Purchasing this saving faucet is an easy task. First of all, you will need to check the flow rate. The advisable discharge is 2.5 gallon per minute. Then, make sure you identify the design you would want to work with. You can either use an aerated or non-aerated design. They all are however efficient. Finally, always go for a quality supplier. Reading product review can help you with that.

Although this technology has several advantages, it has some downsides. The pressurized sprinkle tends to cool quickly. Therefore, for a person to have a warm, comfortable shower, he would have to increase its temperature. This would increase the power bill. To some extent, the bill can increase by even 10%. Also, since it delivers less sprinkle, there is a possibility of scalding when there is a sudden decrease in pressure of the cold water for example when flushing the toilet. This problem can, however, be solved by the use of an anti-scald valve or a pressure balancing valve.

A household that is supplied with hard water can experience clogging of the tiny holes. This is because of the quick deposition of mineral on the head. This leads to reduced effectiveness or sometimes total blockage that may require urgent repair.

In conclusion, the installation of these devices in our bathrooms can go an extra mile in reduction of its use and consequently the bill too. Despite the few disadvantages, I would go for it as it also promotes conservation by preserving this commodity with plays a crucial role in the eco system.
