What is the flow rate of this when using a 2 liter bottle - how long does the shower last?

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.

For comparison, I'd say a 2.5 gallon solar shower bag is enough for most people to wet, lather and rinse. 5 gallons is enough for one comparatively luxuriant shower, or for two people to share. (All of this assumes that you stop the water flow while lathering.)Whereas, one 2-litre bottle = about a half gallon. In my experience, that's enough to completely wash your hair and face, or to quickly rinse or cool off - or to rinse off a few soapy dishes.

The flow rate is 1.8 gallons per minute, which means you'll get a 36 second flow from a 2 liter bottle. That is slightly less flow than a low flow shower, but it actually does a better job getting you wet/rinsing you off. While a single 2 liter bottle is sufficient for a "navy" shower, we recommend using two bottles for a complete shower (actually, I use 3 liters for a complete shower, but 4 liters works best for most people).

This shower system uses 2.5 gallons per minute which is the standard amount of water. It also has AIR technology on both the showerhead and the handshower. This technology forces 3 parts air and 1 part water through the showerhead and the handshower so that it feels like you are getting more water pressure without using more water. I hope this answers your question.

The specs show 2.5 gallons per minute from the shower head, which is the maximum allowed by law. Be aware that the law states 2.5GPM is the maximum flow rate allowed at 80PSI water pressure, so if your house has lower water pressure you could get less than 2.5GPM. This is true of every shower head sold in the US. The spec sheet on American Standard's website shows 10GPM or more from the tub spout depending on water pressure to your house.

The instruction says 10 minutes for 3 months so 90 days but so far I've had it for close to 6 weeks running about 15 minutes a day. It seems like it's still going strong. I'm about to order the refills just in case and probably open it up to see if I need to change it soon. I would say just to be safe change it after 2 months, unless you take quick showers daily. I would recommend it to anyone though since I've gotten 4 other co-workers to get the shower head :)

Flow rate depends on water pressure: at 1.5 kg/cm2 you get about 6 lt/min; at 8.5 kg/cm2 you get about 19 lt/min (it is recommendable to have a water pressure gauge installed.) Hope this will help you.

The small bottle that comes with this (4 oz or so) lasts about 15 minutes. You can empty the entire small bottle into the unit's reservoir, but at around 15 minutes, the unit will start to sputter as the wands no longer get fully immersed in the bubble solution. Buy the 2 liter bubble solution, it was just $5.

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 used it once a day for about a month and a half. Keep in mind though, it depends on how long you shower. Mine were quick under two minutes. A tad longer when I washed my shoulder length hair. I always kept spare batteries and propane handy and I got a heavy duty 16 gallon rubbermaid bin filled with water and cut a small hole in the cover for the tubing so that the water supply would not depleted as fast. Happy showering.!

Pretty quick... under 5 min but probably quicker than that... If I remember right it holds residual water so it's probably under a minute... a bunch of drunks use it so it couldn't take all that long ;=)

If the water bottle is sitting in room temperature it last about 2-3 hours.

8 ounces. . Lasts a month or more with a shower every other day as you only need a small amount per shower.

I get about two months use per bottle, i use it the shower just about every day sometimes twice if the house is dry in the winter... A little goes very far.

If you are using the 2 liter setting, it will last approximately 8 hours. I have not checked the time available for 3, but I believe it is somewhere around 5 hours. The 4 liter setting will give you less time. I paid more than $310.00.

It's natural gas, you only need to run a 1/2 gas line too it because it is a low water output unit. That's why it's cheap besides it's made in China. Don't expect to take a shower with a shower head of over 1.5 gallon per minute and definitly not showering while someone is washing clothes or dishes with hot water. Basically the hot water output is low

I have had the Shower Water Pik close to a year. Two people use it daily and the battery lasts 7 to 10 days. You twist off the bottom which is the battery and twist it into the charger. It is best to charge it at lease 12 hours.

If you use it twice a day as it says on the bottle it will last 3 weeks to a month. If you are a slacker like me, it will last two months.

The longer the better- i usually leave it for 3 minutes while i am in the shower- but when i have time i use on the weekends and i leave it for 30 minutes under a shower cap then i rinse it out.
