Low flow showerheads are a great way to save water, reduce your environmental footprint, and save money. When looking for low flow showerheads, you want to find ones with a relatively low GPM (i.e., gallons per minute). As of 2016, when I’m writing this, the average GPM for a conventional showerhead is anywhere from 3.5 to 5 GPM — meaning it uses about 4 gallons of water per minute. That’s a lot of water. Hate to break it to you, but we don’t need that much water when we shower. It’s unsustainable and wasting money. This low flow showerhead by Niagara is highly rated, and uses 1.25 gallons per minute, without sacrificing on pressure. I recommend making the switch.
