A good handheld shower head?
Current no-name 2.5 GPM head is annoyingly weak, making me use more water than I do at home. Have to keep Cold and Hot valves to more than half-open in order to feel any water action, and then even with diluting hot/cold 50/50 my 6 gal heater is empty after 6-7 minutes. In other words, I'm using total 12 gal in 6 minutes = 2 GPM.
I'm looking for something designed for 1.0-1.5 GPM, not 2.5 GPM - hopefully the flow shape will be better when used within design envelope.
With shut-off valve at the head.
With cradle holding the head at the proper angle.
With the hose feeding from the diverter down low, because this is where it is feeding now - not from the cradle.
Preferably, - without what they call "aerator" - I think it's stealing the heat.
Found this 2 GPM Oxygenics Body Spa RV, it's 2 GPM, not 1, and manuf. website mentions "aeration technology reducing water usage". Can they ever make anything right? :)
There is also 1.5 GPM High Sierra - a bit costly, price doesn't include hose and cradle.
