I can calculate the cost for fuel but its the same argument. Comfortable showers the way I like them are worth a fewhundred a yr to me while to others streaming spors vacations etc etc may be where they choose to spend extra cash. Thanks for your synapsis on the plumbing.

Ill try that one out. by the way the one you linked is the 2.0 GPM they have the same model in 2.5 GPM

Both I guess. Obviously not looking to stand under a hose but over the years I have been in showers that you really get a lot of water with great pressure. So a mix of the 2. Is the hotel one that much more powerful?

Everything costs money. Vacations food sports streaming etc. Why is spending possibly a couple hundred bucks a year on an enjoyable shower experience such a point of contention with people. How many gallons of water do we use in hundreds of other applications that are technically unnecessary...

You may be correct. But I also think that some showerheads bottleneck water more than others just by the nature of their design. regardless of any flow restrictors. Hence my question to the forum.

Did that please refer back to my O.P. Want to know which specific model showerhead to use.

Please reread my OP I did all of that multiple times and gave all that info.

I think the Oring is there to seal it from leaks and I would not want to remove that.

Thanks to all those that replied . To clarify I HAVE removed the restrictor on the brand new Speakman S2251. I stated that in my OP. I want higher pressure but can't exactly buy 100 different showerheads remove the regulators and run tests. Hence the question if anyone has a specific model to...

New member here looking for advice. I just bought a home and would like to switch out the showerhead for something with the best possible GPM. Taking all attachments off the shower arm, I get 4.9 GPM once I attach the Dual diverter which is an old Moen it drops to 3.5 G.P.M. I bought a Speakman...
