: : Currently renting a home in which bathrooms back up to each other. One shower has very low pressure and one has extreme pressure...so much that the drain can not handle the amount of water and it collects in tub while showering. Is there a way to limit the amount from this shower head? : Reply: : If you're faucet does not have volume control, you can replace the shower head with a water saving one, (2.5 gallons per minute). : Good Luck. e-plumber The restrictor has probably been removed in the shower head that's providing high gallons per minute. Most shower heads restrict to 2.5 gpm. LonnythePlumber
