Does anybody else find that it takes 4 times as long to shower with these things ? Jeeeebus. They were in every hotel we stayed in. You have to run around to get wet and it takes forever to rinse the shampoo....and then conditioner out. Are they really saving water ????
low flow? Hmm is when there's barely any water pressure?
Me too Michel. I'm sure they have to be using more water. I should have put the plug in the drain to see how much it filled the tub. Mind you, we have a shower stall, so I guess it wouldn't have proved much.(//vny!://discoverseattle.net/forums/richedit/smileys/Happy/12.gif)
I think you were probably also experiencing the "hard" water, P.C. It's more difficult to rinse suds off.
I know what you mean, PC. My old apt was low flow...took forever to rinse hair, etc. And on the other hand, my parent's place is a high flow with blasting water that is so powerful that it hurts your skin! My showers in there are fast, almost military like.

That's true Lil Me. But I find it wimpy even without the rinse issue. It's more like a steady drool. Not invigorating at all.
thick hair P.C.?
Tell Mr. Sawdust to stop flushing.
I agree low flow showers are crap.. they frustrate me into staying in the shower longer which Im sure uses more water.. but to be honest once you get used to them, you are supposed to use less water.
Sounds like the lower water usage crappers, you have to flush twice to get a good one down.
I do agree about teh Hard Water mention.. I hate hard water.
Russ, you're a man's man. You'd stand in the rain and call it a shower. (//vny!://discoverseattle.net/forums/richedit/smileys/Teasing/1.gif)

And Im sure you could shower in the rain.. in africa during monsoon season.. :):)
I got free water saving shower heads from our water company.........I removed them after the first shower w/ one of these.
I'm really curious to see a comparison chart on water usage with these things. I'm sure if you compared a 5 minute shower to a 5 minute shower, there would be a substantial saving. But the problem is, you can't shower in 5 minutes with those things.
I shower in 5mins regardless. I get bored easily.
I shower even faster in the locker rooms with the push-button to turn the shower on...that lasts 10 seconds. I get tired of pushing the button, so I'm finished showering in 2mins.
lol Lil Me. I'm a pretty quick showerer too.....I think that's why I found them so annoying.
