new shower head

Hello,

I really want to get a shower head like this?

my partner seems to think that because we’ve got lower water pressure (two story), that this won’t work. I think he’s just saying that…

Re: new shower head

Hi @Newbie-,

 

Your husband does have some valid concerns.

 

If you already have low water pressure, this shower head may not perform as expected. It includes a pre-filter to trap impurities, which, while improving water quality, can restrict flow further. Additionally, the shower head relies on very fine jet holes to create a high-pressure spray effect. Under normal household pressure, this design produces a strong jet, but with limited water pressure in a two-story home, the flow may be reduced significantly. While the Aroma Sense Q is engineered to enhance the sensation of water pressure, it cannot actively increase the baseline pressure. If your current water pressure is already low, you might find the performance unsatisfactory. 

 

However, without actually trying it, it's a bit hard to tell whether it will work well or not.

 

Please let me know if you have any questions.

 

Mitchell
