Question regarding the use of massage spray features in low water pressure areas.

QUESTION: I have low water pressure in my house. I am thinking of purchasing the Moen, model 21075W, revolution massaging hand held shower head set. I need to really feel the massage action water flow on my neck. Would this be a good choice? Is it hard to remove the water saver device? If the model is not a good choice, can you recommend another one. I was also looking at the Quattro Massage hand held shower head set by Interbath, model JQ922CH.

ANSWER: If you have low water pressure in your house, a hand held shower is probably not for you. Water pressure is often reduced with this type of model because the water has to travel through the hose, the shower handle and out the shower head. Massage and aeration features also reduce water pressure. Because you really need a massage spray function and you want the maximum water pressure possible, I recommend that you get a fixed shower head. Here are some ShowerStore.com models that I recommend.

Interbath Metropolis Shower Head Model BF021CH

Moen Revolution Massage Shower Head Model 21070

Speakman Anystream 2000 Shower Head Model S-2000-BP

As for your question regarding the difficulty in removing the water flow restrictor, it is actually very easy to remove. All you need is a smaller-sized flat-head screwdriver. Using a twisting/prying motion, you can easily pop it out. For step by step instructions, you can visit the increasing water pressure portion of our support section.
