Lower Water & Hot-Water Bills

Control Shower Water Use With a Shower Head Flow Controller

The Shower Scrooge™ helps control how much water each shower uses. It installs behind the shower fixture, where it stays out of sight and is harder to access or remove.

Reduce shower water waste while helping lower water, sewer, and hot-water costs across your property.

More Consistent Shower Flow

The pressure-compensating design helps control water flow even when pressure changes.

Hidden Behind the Shower Fixture

The controller stays out of normal view, making it harder to reach or remove.

Designed to Help Reduce Clogging

Its internal design is made to help reduce buildup and lower the risk of clogging.

Helps Reduce Water and Hot-Water Use

Using less water in the shower can also mean less water needs to be heated.

Track-1

"After installing Shower Scrooge in our 120-unit property, we measured an average shower flow reduction from 4.8 GPM to 2.0 GPM. Our water and hot-water costs dropped significantly"
PROPERTY MANAGER | MULTIFAMILY HOUSING

The Water Scrooge has a service which reduces water consumption through special devices resulting in reduced water bills and energy savings due to the need to heat fewer gallons of water.

It’s a capital cost that lowers expenses thus increasing cash flow, and Net Operating Income. In my business, a higher NOI increases the value of my property….Thus far, the purchase of the valve has proven to be a very good return on the investment”

Zane Drake

Managing Member | The Villas of White Rock

We have purchased and installed 12 Smart Valves in our apartment properties over past 6 months. Savings have ranged from 11% to 23%. This is particularly valuable since all of our properties separate sewer charges based upon water consumption . We intend to install in our other buildings by the end of the year.”

1

What Is a Shower Head Flow Controller?

A shower head flow restrictor is a small device that controls how much water flows through a shower.

The Shower Scrooge™ works as a shower water flow controller but is installed behind the shower fixture instead of inside the showerhead.

2

How Is the Shower Scrooge™ Different From a Standard Shower Head Controller?

Many standard restrictors are placed inside the showerhead, where they may be easy to reach.

The Shower Scrooge™ is installed behind the shower fixture. This keeps the flow controller out of sight and makes it harder to remove during normal use.

It also uses a pressure-compensating design to help control flow when water pressure changes.

3

Does a Shower Water Flow Controller Reduce Water Pressure?

The Shower Scrooge™ controls water flow rather than changing the actual water pressure in your building.

Its internal design adjusts when supply pressure changes to help keep shower flow more consistent.

Actual results can vary based on the property's plumbing and water pressure.

4

Can Residents See the Shower Scrooge™?

No. The device is installed behind the shower fixture, so it is not normally visible while using the shower.

5

Can Residents Remove the Shower Scrooge™?

Because the device is installed behind the shower fixture, it is harder to reach than a standard restrictor placed inside the showerhead.

6

How Long Does Installation Take?

Installation can be completed in under 3 minutes per shower in typical installations.

There is no need to open the wall or cut plumbing pipes.

7

Do I Need to Replace My Showerheads?

No. The Shower Scrooge™ is designed to work behind the existing shower fixture, so you do not need to replace every showerhead just to control flow.

8

Can I Test the Product Before Installing It Across My Property?

Yes. You can start with a Water Scrooge Proof Kit.

The kit lets you measure shower flow before and after installation so you can see the difference before planning a larger rollout.
