After the toilet, the shower is the second-heaviest water user in the home, using up to 30 percent of total household water.

Having a high-efficiency showerhead is a very practical way to reduce water consumption during bathing. It not only reduces your water bill, but it reduces your sewer and energy bills as well. This method of water conservation has a very short payback period, often as short as a few months.

Typical non-conserving showerheads have flow rates of 5 to 8 gallons per minute, meaning that a typical 5-minute shower would send about 25-40 gallons of fresh water down the drain and into the sewer.

By contrast, the high efficiency showerheads being offered by WASD as part of the exchange program use only 1.5 gallons per minute, or 7½ gallons for a 5-minute shower, reducing water demand by at least 50%. (courtesy of SAHRA - Arizona Board of Regents website)
