It is advisable to shower for no more than 15 minutes (13 to 32 liters of water are lost for every minute over 5 minutes) and to avoid long showers. So bathing to catch the time, first wet the whole body immediately turn off the nozzle, and then through the body scrubbing, the last rinse, do not wash the head, body, feet, respectively, with soap or bath soap scrubbing, a rinse clean.

It is best to use a showerhead, both to expand the shower area, but also to control the flow of water, to achieve the purpose of water conservation. And now some showerheads are specially designed to save water, adding special chips and air holes in the water-saving appliances, inhaling air to produce a pressure and into the flow column, air and water are fully mixed, equivalent to the water flow puffed up and then jetted out, therefore, in order to achieve the purpose of water saving, at the same time, its flushing power and comfort is unchanged.
