Low Flow Showerheads

Why Install a Low Flow Showerhead?

A family of four can save 160,000 litres of water or more a year by installing low flow showerheads alone. Reducing water in the shower will also save you money on your water and energy bills.

 

  • Save water, energy and money. Older showerheads have flow rates as high as 20 litres per minute. New showerheads use between 5.6 and 9.5 litres per minute, and use less than half of the water and energy that your old showerhead uses! A family of four could see combined savings of $120 per year.
  • For a high quality shower. New low flow showerheads reduce water use without sacrificing the quality of the shower. Many low flow models feature multiple flow settings.
  • Help preserve the environment through reduced resource use.
