how many gallons of water per minute does this shower head consume?

I think you may have to write to the manufacturer to find that out, but I can tell you that I have had this for several months and haven't noticed any difference in my water bill. Also, ITS AMAZING. The size just lets the water hit you everywhere instead of just on your back, or just on your shoulders. And if you turn off the lights and just let the LED's on, its like being in a spa. If you're thinking about buying it...doooooo it!!!

Hi Nicole: Pumps 10 gallons/minute. Effective in that range. We have had several over the years and are quite satisfied. Pump turns on when submerged so we dug a hole for the pump to sit below the incoming water, leaving only minimum amounts on the floor. :-) Bob & Mary

Not sure what the manufacturer rates it for flow rate, but the flow will depend on your plumbing and water pressure. Having said that, I can tell you that a LOT of water flows from this fixture. Probably three or four times a standard shower head. So much so that I'm starting to get concerned about my water bill. I think you will like this fixture if you are looking for a drenching shower. If you are concerned about hot/cold water wastage, this is not for you.

I can't tell you how long the shower will last.But it takes the water about 30 seconds to run out.One two litter bottle is not big enough for a full shower.

1 gallon per minute in the form of a very fine mist, according to the manufacturer. We use it to tweak humidity levels in a greenhouse. Does a great job and plants love it.

I have never measured the flowrate but it doesn't appear to have any flow limiting or restriction devices. Therefore the maximum flow rate will depend upon the water pressure feeding the faucet and of course the diameter of the service supply lines. If I were to guess what the maximum flowrate of the faucet as installed in my house, I would estimate about 20 gallons per minute.

I think all faucets are limited to 2 gallons per minute to conserve water. See how long it take to fill a gallon. If it is slow then you may have a supply problem. Mine will fill a quart jar in 8 seconds. Good Luck

The Orifice # like 3,4,5, Etc would be the # gallons per minute at the standard pressure of 4000 psi. The ratio is not linear. A #4 would pass 2 gpm @ 1000 psi, 4 gpm @ 4000 psi and 5.7 @ 8000 psi. An excellent chart at "ultimatewasher.com".

This is a "rainfall" head. The idea here is to reduce the pressure so that all the available water falls like rain. It does that. It provides enough water to shower comfortably without harsh sprays. It puts out the standard US 2.4 gal/min water flow. If you want more water, add a couple of wall sprays. Those will be force sprays, not rain sprays. Each will also be effectively limited to 2.5 gpm

Can't say the exact flow rate but I can tell you that I love my showerhead! I like a strong stream to soothe my muscles and get through my thick hair and this does the trick.

Measured 1 gallon in 30 seconds = 2.0 gpm. I think my pressure is fairly high. Hot water did last longer than the old 2.5 gpm head which actually used 2.6 gpm.

The amount of gallons of water flowing through per minute. I didn't measure it, but we have no issues with ours.

We haven't noticed an increase in our water bill due to the fact that it is our guest bathroom so hasn't been used a lot but the week our daughters and families were here they mentioned they ran out of hot water only after two showers, and we have a 40 gallon water heater, so my husband is thinking we need to get a shower head that doesn't use so much water.

I really don't know. I have twice the flow now that I did with just my showerhead. It is wonderful!

I am not sure what you are asking, it would depend on your water pressure, I have read a Q/A on another site, the person has 40 psi water pressure, and the answers says it is good enough pressure, and you should get 1.5 gal per minute with this faucet. Hope this helps.

The flow rate is 2.5 gallons per minute, which is GENERALLY the maximum flow allowed in household faucets, showerheads etc. due to Federal regulation. 1.5 GPM is quickly becoming the new norm.

It will calculates both single-use and total water consumption to a maximum of 999.9 gallons, in 0.10 gallon increments. I don't use the "cumulative" feature. I primarily use this meter to put a specific amount of water into my RV water tank, so usually the maximum reading I use/need is <45 gallons.
