High Sierra Showerheads® not only look different from other shower heads, they use a completely different technology. Each model features our exclusive and patented (U.S. patent #7,185,830) nozzle, which is designed to deliver a delightfully strong and full spray of large drops—from only 1.5 gpm*.

All other ultra low flow shower heads are miniaturized versions of higher flowing, outdated designs, which is why they fail in strength of spray, ability to retain heat, and ability to resist clogging. Our Full Coverage Spray® (FCS) nozzle is a new invention. It has never been used in higher flowing shower heads because it is designed to work at 1.5 gpm and works best at 1.5 gpm.

Although technically a low flow shower head, we like to say that High Sierra Showerheads® are better than low flow….they are the right flow!

* Accuracy of flow rate is ± 10% between 30 psi and 80 psi

Hard water build up and the resulting clogging has always been an issue with most shower heads because they divide a single stream of water into as many as 100 little streams.

As flow rates drop to under 2 gpm to conserve water, clogging becomes an even bigger problem. The High Sierra Showerhead’s patented nozzle uses only one orifice to create the spray, making it very unlikely that hard water will ever affect the flow or spray.

Other than the BPA-free, ABS sleeve featured on some of our shower heads, High Sierra Showerheads® are solid metal (brass and stainless steel).

There are significant advantages to all-metal shower head designs. One is longevity. All-metal construction is more solid and lasts years longer than plastic.

The other advantage is that all-metal showerheads have been proven to inhibit bacterial growth. The High Sierra Showerhead® design is more likely to inihibit bacteria than other metal shower heads because it drains fully after each use.

All High Sierra Showerheads® perform best at, and deliver a flow rate of, only 1.5 gpm*. This is at least 40% less than conventional low flow showerheads.

In addition to the water savings, the cost of heating the water is reduced by the same percentage.

When you combine the savings of water and the energy to heat it, the payback on your investment is usually less than 3 months. When compared to other water-saving devices, 1.5 gpm showerheads offer the fastest return on investment. But no other 1.5 gpm showerhead can achieve this amazingly fast payback without clogging or producing a disappointing spray.

In the words of one satisfied customer: "I currently have one shower head of yours and it is fantastic...you can't even tell it's low flow. So, I ordered a second one and ran the calculations ... with our family of seven, I expect to see a reduction of nearly $40 in electrical usage a month and 2,000 gallons of water. This is unequivocally the best new product out there!" --Patrick R.
