Delta’s WaterSense Showerheads

8/26/2010

 

Delta announced this month that more than 50% of their bath suites now feature showerheads and handshowers that meet the latest specification introduced by the EPA’s WaterSense program.

 

The company expects to hit the 80% compliance market by this summer. To earn the WaterSense designation, a showerhead or handshower must flow at a rate of no more than 2.0 gpm, tested at a flowing pressure of 80 pounds per square inch (psi), and is tested against the following three attributes to ensure performance and user satisfaction:
> A consistent flow rate across a range of pressures
> Spray force
> Spray coverage

Many of Delta’s WaterSense showerheads offer H2Okinetic Technology, which improves water efficiency by 40%, flowing at 1.5 gpm while providing the feel of an enhanced flow of 2.5 gpm. www.deltafaucet.com
