This shower pressure thing is beginning to bother me. I have removed all of the restrictor discs and I have changed the showerhead. I have even gone to the extent of drilling out the port or the water discharges from the shower mixing valve trying to increase the flow. I have even gone to the extent of drilling out the port of the water discharges from the shower mixing valve to increase the flow. I’m still getting what I like to describe as” A dribble“ out of the shower head. It is marginally adequate to take a shower. With the city water flow selector switch set up and the regulator set between 52 and 53 psi, it is similar to when I use the ShurFlo water pump, and it has a cut off at 55 psi. My next step I suppose, is to set up a PSA gauge on the end of the shower hose to see what pressure I am actually getting there. I should probably also measure the flow of water that the pump is putting out. The pump label says three GPM, and I would suggest that that amount is unlikely based on what I’m seeing at the showerhead. Am I being too anal about this, or should I just go get a hotel room?
