Water Flow Restriction vs. Flow Regulation

Watch this #shorts video as we talk about Neoperl flow regulators, which we use in our showerheads here at HammerHead Showers.
Whether you have low pressure or high pressure in your home, these flow regulators from Neoperl will give you the same amount of water pressure every time.

Just show us how to get rid of them…I remove all of them in my house….

[@theshowerheadstore]

Thanks for the feedback, Rod.

[@OscyJack-]

The same as any other removal

[@astrogunz2108]

Thanks Mega Shake. My search has narrowed. Looking for only regulators

[@theshowerheadstore]

Thank you for the update. We are here to assist with regulators specifically. Let us know how else we can help.

Nice shirt!

[@Greg-vq9tu]

Thank you for explaining the difference.

[@kaltrex9465]

Hmm, in a positive view…Which point in the line can I play with to reduce water flow (pressure?) for the shower at least, to save money on water bill?

[@theshowerheadstore]

we would recommend using a lower GPM (gallons per minute) regulator! that should allow less water volume to flow

[@SaltySparrow]

the only problem is if you have high pressure that black band can stretch out and sometimes pops out. My speakman has the same thing.

[@theshowerheadstore]

If this was the case with one of our products, we would provide a replacement right away!

Can these be purchased on Amazon? I have a home with low water pressure, but just put in a huge shower after my house burned down with 3 shower heads. Then without running it by me first, my contractor decided to give me a 50 gallon water heater instead of the on demand heater we priced out initially... I really hate to see the 5 minute shower I'll be able to take twice a week!!😅

[@theshowerheadstore]

Sure! you can find the on amazon or right here: www.theshowerheadstore.com/collections/accessories/products/flow-restrictor-1-75-gpm

[@kellykelly-fp1jg]

He never claimed he would explain how to remove them. He is offering knowledge of the difference between a restricter and a regulator. .. as it states in the title.

[@theshowerheadstore]

That is right!

Hi, I bought a Sonity filtered shower head from amazon, and it came with a 2.5 gmp flow regulator . After installing the showered head, I noticed 2 things the Sontiy showered head did not flow correctly and sprayed half, and the bottom shower head holes just dripped so much water it came out the sode onto bathroom floor. Secondly, I noticed the old shower head was smaller and the gmp was at 1.75. Can that be fixed so the new shower head flows out correctly?

[@theshowerheadstore]

In this case, I would suggest to contact Sonity directly as it definitely sounds like a warranty issue!

[@JannatJannat56]

I had the same problem with my old shower head but ever since bought Jolly shower head and never had this problem .It's the best shower head filter in terms of make , design , and ease of use .They will provide u 1.75 gpm flow restrictor inside the box .

@@JannatJannat56 Thanks for the feedback

[@blaksin]

Yeah fuck I need that; cheers

[@theshowerheadstore]

Thanks for the feedback!

[@mileswillmoth3969]

I don’t see where I have one of those in mine that I bought from you. It looks like it’s all one piece and the pressure stinks !

[@theshowerheadstore]

There is one flow restrictor which is located behind the black rubber washer in the main female connection. For hand held shower heads, this is in the shower holder connection. For fixed and rain shower heads, this is directly in the connection of the shower head. For the dual shower head, you'll find one in the handle of the handheld and the other in the female threads of the rain shower head. Let me know if this helps, Miles and thanks for the feedback.

[@billbillerton6122]

He said something along the lines of "We use only the best flow regulators here." Me: But why use them at all?

[@theshowerheadstore]

It is a legal requirement, unfortunately.

[@billbillerton6122]

@theshowerheadstore Is removing this device a crime on par with the "Do not remove this tag under penalty of law." tags on pillows and mattresses? Is there a special branch in the FBI that hunts down people committing this egregious offense?

[@theshowerheadstore]

@@billbillerton6122 it is only required to be sold that way. We haven't had any trouble with their SPD (Shower Police Division) yet :D Joke aside, it is checked by city inspectors for bathroom renovations in certain situations.

[@billbillerton6122]

@theshowerheadstore Will Judas Priests Breaking the Law automatically begin to play upon removal of this device? Lol That's the last one, sorry.
