Water conservation is an increasingly important part of life.  

Conserving water is not only good for the environment but also saves you money. Low flow shower heads are an in-expensive, easy to install product that can reduce your home water consumption and energy cost of heating by as much as 50%.

There are two types of shower heads on the market, aerating and non-aerating.

Aerating shower heads mix air into the water.  They provide a full shower spray and are the most popular model on the market.  Water can be a bit cool though towards the bottom of the shower so you might feel it around your legs and feet.

Non-aerating shower heads do not mix water so a steady temperature is maintained.  The water flow is more of a pulsating flow so it’s like a massaging effect.

If you don’t currently have a low flow shower head, consider swapping over and do something for the environment and save some money at the same time!Here’s a video showing you how to install a shower head, enjoy!
