WaterSense Showerhead Specification Released
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) released the final WaterSense specification for showerheads in March 2010. As expected, the specification sets the maximum flow rate at 2.0 gallons per minute (7.6 lpm) at a flowing pressure of 80 psi. EPA estimates that labeled showerheads will begin appearing in stores by the end of April. For more on this standard, see
EBN Nov. 2009 and www.epa.gov/watersense/.
