I have very low water pressure and thus low flow, suggest the best shower head to increase the flow.

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.

You won't be able to increase the actual flow. I is what it is. But you can increase the apparent flow by increasing the pressure at the nozzle. To do that, pick the shower head with the lowest gallons-per-minute rating,and adjust the head for a needle spray.

What you want to get is the Delta 75152 shower head!!! I have low water pressure and this is the only one I found that gives you a strong water pressure.

It doesn't produce pressure. Your home water supply does. However, the pressure supplied to it will determine its heating effectiveness. Too much pressure will reduce its ability to heat as a higher pressure increases water flow. At a sufficiently low pressure and flow it produces nice hot water. At the rated 1.6 gallon per minute most new showerheads are designed for its fine for one fixture at a time.

I had a concern about this too prior to purchasing, but have been extremely pleased with everything about it, including the pressure. I would think if you have adequate water pressure where this is to be installed, it will work fine for you. The head is designed with two settings. Of course the setting that concentrates the flow to the center of the head naturally provides more pressure. When you change the setting to dispense from the entire head, the flow is much more gentle - like a rain shower. I use the more centralized setting to wash my hair and the rain shower setting for the remainder of my shower. Perfect. By far the best shower head I've ever had.

YES! We have low pressure. It is like hooking up a power washer to a garden hose. There aren't a bunch of settings, but you can adjust it to be less intense. I highly recommend this product. I have had one for over 10 years.

Each shower head has 5 settings: Rain, Massage, Mist, Eco Rain and Pause. You can mix and match the settings on each head. If you have low water pressure and getting unsatisfactory water flow, the included instructions tell you how to remove the water flow regulator.

No, it will enhance it. You might also want to look at the AKDY (TM) Bathroom Chrome Shower Head 8" And Arm AZ6021-A Rain Style. This shower head has a wonderful water-flow. I own both and my family favors the AKDY. But, I am not a fan of their customer support. I actually purchased 3 of the AKDY heads and one came in with a stripped shower arm but to get this resolved he wanted me to take pictures??? I called Amazon and they handled it for me. I hope this helps.

The pressure on ours is great! Not sure about the specific GPM, but I would not say it is anywhere near low flow!

I found the pressure to be very low. I ended up removing the sprayer and the shower head and getting a new showerhead that I liked better. It doesn't have the sprayer and hose, though. I do like the ability to adjust the temperature on the volume control.

i think most people who buy this also change the shower head at the same time, so you won't find many accurate accounts. However, the hole size is smaller than the hole on the pipe coming from my wall, so physically i don't think its possible for it to "not" be causing lower water flow. Our pipes made some weird noises too like maybe it was straining them somehow

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

The pressure should be OK. You may want to use different shower head than the one provided with the filter.

Local code might require the lower flow and your shower head or handheld unit probably restricts the flow to 2.5 gpm anyways. But, if you can get the higher flow, might as well go with it.

Is the water pressure low because of your plumbing or calcium build up? If you have low pressure, just pull the flow regulator, a small screen, out of the short part of the pipe. That will allow for a fuller flow thru the head.

The water features runs separately, however, as mentioned in other answer, it is possible to turn the knob half way in between the 2 features to get a little bit of both but the water flow will be low. The recommended PSI is 60.

It's hard to say but I felt this shower head only improved my water pressure. Just make sure you get the extension bar that's "frequently purchased with" or you will be showering up against the wall.

We also felt that the pressure is low, but we decided to leave this as is for water savings. Send your request to manufacturer, Phister Customer's Service is exellent. (they helped us more then expected, sent us a lot of spare details without any charge). Good luck

Robert is correct, I was wrong. It seemed at the time I had a little more of flow but it is impossible. If you have a pressurized tank there should be a shrader valve on the tank to check the air pressure of the bladder inside of the tank to boost water pressure, you may be low on pressure in the bladder. You may need to use an air pump to raise the air pressure but be careful, I don't remember what the pressure should be. Check with Watts Premier web site.
