Shower Heads — The Ultimate in Fine Bathing

Recently, we stayed in an historic 1929 English Tudor manor lodge near Chagrin Falls, OH. The lobby had the usual showcase of lodge history, but what caught our eye were the 2 original shower heads on display. The vintage showerheads are truly works of skillfully cast brass fixture art and the ultimate in 1929 bathing grandeur. In the Gatsby-esque roaring twenties, homeowners were so excited about moving the outhouse into the main house that water conservation hadn’t yet become a “thing.”

Fast forward to today. Water conservation is one of the hottest topics on the globe.

Does a Shower Really Use a Lot of Water?
According to www.agreatshower.com, showerhead technology has improved so much that the days of “a great shower or a water-saving shower” are gone. With today’s shower head options, homeowners can help “save the environment and save up to $200 per year.” That’s a sizable savings, given that the average shower lasts about 8 minutes and over 30 gallons of water (with a full-flow shower head).

Will a Water Saver Shower Head Help Save Water & Money?
Actually, they do. A water saver (a.k.a. “low flow”) shower head can reduce water consumption by as much as 50%. For homeowners on municipal water systems, a water saver shower head can reduce shower water usage to less than 18 gallons per 8-minute shower.

How do Water Saver Shower Heads Work?
By using a combination of modern design techniques and improved engineering, 21st-century water saving shower heads deliver a the experience of a “full flow” shower while using half the amount of water. It’s pretty scientific, but it works.
