Will California’s new standards lead to bad showers? Fear not, there are lots of good low-flow showerheads out there.
Your shower flow is going down. Starting July 2016, all showerheads sold in Calfornia must drop to 2 gallons per minute, from the current allowable flow rate of 2.5 gallons per minute. And on these matters, where California goes, the rest of the nation soon follows.
We suspect consumers won’t even notice the difference. There are many great low-flow showerheads. Here are a few that meet the new standard from our online store.
Kohler Flipside Showerhead, Vibrant Brushed Nickel
Featuring a full spray that you can personalize, from downpour to drenching, this brushed nickel beauty is sure to add a splash of class to any decor. With its 2.0 GPM output, your shower will be just as relaxing as its always been!
AM Conservation Group Tri-Max High Efficiency Showerhead
Tops when it comes to water conservation, this minimalist classic lets you choose from three flow rates; 0.5 GPM, 1.0 GPM, and 1.5 GPM. You may only have one spray function, but with the amount of money you’re saving, one’s all you need!
Niagara Sava Showerhead, Chrome
With a fixed GPM of 1.75, you never have to worry about saving water – you already know you are! Even though you’ll buy it for efficiency, you’ll still be able to luxuriate in the full spray that feels like you’re enjoying a day at the spa.
Niagara Earth Massage, Handheld
Another 1.5 GPM classic, this shower head will make it through even the most rigorous of policy changes, as well as adding a touch of shine to your bathroom.
