Showerhead replacements...same amount of water, lower temp


My roomie Jessica noted that the showerhead in the downstairs bathroom delivered water that was too cold by the time it gets to your skin. I turned the temperature up on the water heater then went shopping for a new showerhead. I found a WaterPik brand at Wal-Mart. Funny to find the product made locally in Colorado at Wal-Mart. The price was less than $10.

The new showerhead uses the same amount of water 2.5 gpm, but now I can set the temperature down on the water heater, which will save energy 24/7.
