MVP Award Winner: Fluidics Line of Water-Saving Showerheads
- BUILDING PRODUCTS Magazine (6/12/2007)
- Alsons. The four showerheads in the Fluidics line provide water, water everywhere but also conserve that resource. The dual-setting 657 offers a choice of a water-saving 1.6 gallons per minute or the standard 2.5 gpm at the flip of a lever. The other showerheads are single-setting: The 656 provides 1.85 gpm; the 655 provides 1.6 gpm; and the 653 operates at 1.75 gpm. There are no moving internal parts creating the droplets, which are larger than those coming from standard-issue showerheads. The line comes in chrome and satin nickel finishes. Its clean design is "stylish yet efficient," according to a judge. Cost: $80 and up. 800-421-0001.

MVP Award Winner: Water-Efficient Showerhead
- BUILDING PRODUCTS Magazine (6/11/2007)
- Delta. Conserving water is an admirable goal, and low-flow showerheads help, but they don't always permit homeowners to effectively rinse shampoo from their hair. The Water-Efficient Showerhead solves this dilemma by delivering 1.6 gallons of water per minute at 60 pounds per square inch. "Thirty-six percent less water than conventional 2.5-gpm showerheads is a huge accomplishment," one judge said, adding that the showerhead "is designed well and is aesthetically pleasing." Without using any moving parts, the showerhead provides a dense spray pattern, says the firm. Cost: $55. 800-345-3358.

Hansgrohe BodyShower Creates a New Level of Ease for Enjoying the Benefits of a Showerpanel
- ebuild (4/17/2007)
- With the BodyShower, there is no need to connect to existing water lines at the back of the panel or cover existing shower controls. The showerpanel actually connects where the showerarm comes out of the wall. Users simply unscrew their showerarm and then replace it with BodyShower's extension. Then all they have to do is add the showerpanel, which connects to the extension and uses the same water supply as the old showerarm.
