We like the Oxyenics, but the best way to get good pressure is to have some water in your fresh tank, and turn the water pump on when you shower. In our case, it doubles our pressure. Also, check to see if there is a flow restrictor in the shower head or at the faucet. Most RV showers have one installed.
Doubles your pressure :H
Then water pump discharge would have to be 2X what the city water supply pressure is.
Might help a little bit with better flow.......but that depends on what pump flow rating is and how restricted the flow is coming into you rig from city water supply
If pump runs it closes the city water check valve other wise it would pump water back into city water supply. (Pump can only come on IF city water pressure is lower than pump pressure switch setting)
Getting rid the flow restrictor in the shower head will be best improvement for showering.
Some have them in hose connection at faucet, some have them in shower head where hose connects.
Some can be pulled out....others are fixed and have to be drilled out (enlarged)....either way simple mod that helps
