'No plumb' shower regulator

Many high performance showers use over 20 litres of water per minute so fuel bills go sky high as do water rates where the supply is metered. In fact, some showers can use more water than a good bath, in less than five minutes.

An Aquaflow DW shower regulator is the "no plumb" answer that limits the maximum flow of water through the shower head to the same pre-set level, regardless of changes in supply pressure, starting from a minimum of 1 bar, up to 10 bar water pressure. There is a choice of flow rates, from 6 up to 15 litres per minute and because the regulator limits the flow not the water pressure, multi-function/power showers still work perfectly well. Fitting a DW is easy: it simply screws in between the shower valve and the shower hose, or, in the case of an overhead shower, between the riser pipe and the fixed showerhead, with no need to break pipework or drain the system. The added advantage of the chrome plated DW regulator is that it simply disappears out of sight when fitted. Greedy showers are kept in check yet still perform as well as ever without spoiling the looks of even the most modern minimalist shower.
