Our penal shower heads were designed specifically for prisons, jails, correctional facilities, or any public application where tampering, safety, and maintenance are important issues. Their 1.5 gpm* flow rate (for 40% water savings) and patented zero maintenance nozzle make them perfect for institutional-public use.

Several thousand of these shower heads are in use at large correctional facilities. The solid brass, vandal-resistant devices were designed to the specifications of prison officials. Their dramatic water and energy conservation will stretch any facility's budget, and the pleasing quality of the shower spray will stifle complaints one sometimes hears about low flow shower heads.

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

Shower Head Testimonial from the facilitites manager of a large university:

"We have installed about 1500 of your 1.5 gpm shower heads to retrofit most of the shower stalls of our residential buildings. Our staff had tested the performance of different heads in the market and chose yours for its full flow feeling and usability such as washing the shampoo off.

"The conversion was completed before the Fall, and after two months of use we have not heard of any dissatisfaction with them.

"At the University of California at Santa Cruz we have a mandate to save a large percent of water, and this conversion from 2.5 gpm to 1.5 gpm will go a long way towards that." -- Tarun B.”
