This provides great pressure, our only complaint is that the cord is too long for our shower. We are still happy to have a great shower head.

Remove the screen at the bottom of the handle of this shower head a you will receive unrestrited water flow from your water supply. (The screen is red)

Mark H-Take a small screwdriver and poke a hole in the screen. Then take a pair of small pliers and pull the screen out.Don't worry about hurting the screen,you will never need it again.

The Oxygenics Showerhead will make a low pressure situation much better,but ultimately your water pressure is the primary determinate.

Although our shower is so low pressure that my hair has stuck my arms and won't run. Can it become high pressure?

I believe that this uses a 3 stream for the focused setting. It seems like it would be able to work on a small concentrated area.However, for "people", not the best shower head in the world. I'm still using it and can't quite put my finger on what it is that I don't like about it but I am just not that happy with the thing. I think that the pressure is terrible using this head. The 3 stream is the highest pressure but it is super weak and too small too quickly rinse a human.

Hi Anne...I've tried 3 different shower heads...I ended up with Moen shower head...so yes, but beware the pressure will be decreased

If you have low pressure and low flow, a low flow shower head is best for you (Think a low pressure pipe becoming narrower, the pressure will effectively become higher.) The Niagara Earth 1.25gpm shower head is the lowest flow shower head I have found for a reasonable price, and is likely your best bet for improving your pressure in your shower.

Any shower head with standard shower head threads which means any shower head. Works great!

No. There is often a flow restrictor that can be removed to give more pressure if your water pressure is low.

I would think not. I believe if I was doing something like that I would want water pressure similar to my shower.

Diane, do you mean the pipe sticks out of the wall at a 90 degree angle? If so, then any shower head should work. They all swivel. Your decision will be what type of spray you prefer. Shower heads with the massage features are nice, but generally use more water. I live in California, and we are in the midst of a serious drought. I like this shower head, because the flow doesn't feel as restricted as it does on other models. I hope this helps.

Lack of on/off on the showerhead is an issue if you are in a water-scarce place, like when camping in the desert. I should have paid closer attention to this point and have returned the device unused. I'll use a compressed-air water sprayer and sink sprayer-head.

In my honest opinion I think it could work. I also live in a old apartment and it worked for me. Also make sure you have a shower caddy that you can take off easy it it hard to get around the shower head if you don't. The showerhead is pretty light it is just plastic so you should be fine.

I can answer your question with a resounding yes! I have owned several of these shower heads and they are great. Especially where your water pressure is less than ideal.

We have a couple of bathrooms and the one we use for the moen has a detachable shower head that allows us to control water dierection. I must mention although this was a very good solution, it was short term as we had our Master bath redone with a larger stand up shower and a walk in tub. If you can afford is the BEST way to make a permenate change. For economy though the Moen was terrific.mHope this helps.Paul FredinEdmond, OKeurorep@coxnet

Well, you can turn the water on to a trickle and ease it up I guess but that defeats the purpose of the device. In fact you could have no shower head at all and adjust the flow with the handles. I cannot recall it saying "low flow" but if it does it just means it restricts the water when the valves are opened at a normal capacity.

We are on city water and the pressure is good for our other showers, but we would need a lot more pressure to supply both shower heads on the Delta unit. To use the handheld shower we have to turn off the ring shower head and the handheld is still not as strong as the others in our house.. The thing must have a built-in, permanent water saver, pressure reducer, because I cannot find one to remove.

The pressure is ok as long as u have pressure, It's not adjustable at the shower head. The problem is the light won't last long
