Sorry, what does that mean? I don't speak Californian.

Just remove the extra washer piece from the shower head

I think Kramer knows a guy.

to save water for everyone, avoid baths and take showers.

I'll shower instead, but fuck anyone that wants me to save water for them

Revolt

Why wouldn't they simply tax water use at progressive rates? If you use a lot of water, you have to pay a lot of money (ideally, towards water processing services).

Doing low-flow laws makes for easy loophole setups like this, not to mention simply buying a device in/from another state. I doubt their cops are kicking down doors for Suspicion of High-Flow Toilet.

WHARRGARBL

I'm pretty sure these recirculate water when they're operated like this. Otherwise it's like a normal shower head.

They have a thing I think is called a water mixing valve. You crank your tank way up. The valve mixes cold and super hot water to what would be normal hot water. This makes the hot water tank last a lot longer. We have one, and both kids can take showers/baths at the same time. And I can shower after and still have hot water. The overall flow and pressure of course is still not enough to run more than two shower heads at the same time without noticing. But that's a different issue.

I honestly had never considered this...

Does anybody make a good recirculation system? Basically take the guts of a jet tub and put the jets on the wall.

All this water wasted on your shower could be used to generate a spam email or an image of jesus made of shrimp. Before you waste this much water water, think of what's important in the world, Sam Altman's net worth.

If I get my water from my well and it goes right back into my septic tank on my property.

How much water am I actually wasting?

I just moved the water 40ft vertically, and ~100ft horizontally

Ugh yeah trendy hotels are into these rain water things and it’s just annoying. I’d be more into this pressure washer though.

Yes like being drowned. And I don't want to get my hair wet every time I shower! Stayed w my brother, he had an overhead shower like that and I thought my hair would mildew, it was always wet.

I talked a DIYer out of installing a rain head on a stall shower--one of those that are about 3 feet square. I told him to imagine taking a shower where you couldn't get out from under the water. You'd need to turn it off to lather and then turn it on to rinse. It was for a guest bathroom. He thought it was trendy and cool.

The wall mounted spout for daily washing, the rain head for washing your hair and for a warming, relaxing shower when you get home cold.

As someone who rocked a rain head ... yeah totally. I also still had a 'normal' shower head on an adjustable flow valve. lol

... though the pure rain head wouldn't have been too terrible. My hair is like 90% of what takes direct flow to clean. Asscracks etc aren't 'that' bad to wash via finding the right posture and waiting a few moments for enough water to find its target.

... I am fully willing to admit my opinion may change drastically in 30 years when even a leaned over posture becomes a PITA.

Are you nude when you try them out? Or like you just stick your hand in? Or ?

Hey, did you know you can turn around? its like walking without going anywhere just rotating yourself.

Make sure you rotate around the vertical axis, and practice on soft ground before trying it in a wet hard surface like a shower.

You bastard

I just want a wand with a nice balance between pressure and area. My current one is great, it has a setting somewhere between massage head and regular. It's nice and penetrates my hair quickly. That said my other priority is that the head is sufficiently high up. I'm just tall enough I often have to bend over, use the wand part, or sit/kneel to wash my hair, and I hate that. Tall people deserve showers too

Rainhead + regular head both on separate controls. If i need a long hot shower, i turn off the rain head. I find it useful mainly for rinsing.

LOL I got lucky with the sale of my home too. The new owners passed on the home inspection, so thankfully they didn't notice my DIY hacks, like fixing the door trim with wood filler after I got locked out one day and had to kick the door down to get in; they also somehow didn't notice the cracked tile in the middle of the living room. FWIW there were spare tiles leftover to swap it out, all the appliances were less than 5 years old, and there were no major structural issues with the home so they still got a decent deal.

But anyway I use a wand on a hose as well but I still want a shower like this. 'Cause I swear that no matter much I rinse my back off, I still miss some soap and end up with an itchy back after my shower. I kinda regret installing a whole-home filtration system since it makes rinsing the all the soap off take so much longer! I'm seriously considering not installing one when I buy my new home in the next few months (and I'm taking my sweet time cause it's a buyer's market at the moment).

The Man’s * episodes are funny as hell.

Man’s kitchen: “The microwave has three settings; Low, Medium, and Split your own atoms. Don’t look directly at the potato!”

Which is good because you'll only have 45 seconds of hot water.

I grew up on a cistern, so I can be done showering in about 2 minutes flat - faster if needed.

Temperatures in the range of very hot to scourgingly hot?

Temperature depending on how fresh the pee is?

You're not wrong, but it's worth pointing out how most of that water is wasted before some genius chimes in to remind us that we eat food.

In the US it's definetely not true.

Pre-datacenters numbers are ~35% irrigation, ~45% thermoelectric power plant cooling, 12% residential, 5% industry, and then other usages.
I don't know how much datacenters changed this equation.

You'd waste more water on those filters than you'd reclaim.
