Lets face the facts! In order to get as close as possible to the water pressure that is inside your pipes, you need to eliminate all barriers inside your shower head that block the flow. It's just plain physics! Don't be fooled by alot of mumbo jumbo that try to convince you that there is any other way to get high pressure from a shower head. The inside inner diameter of your water pipes is approximately 5/8th inch (15.88mm). To modify your showerhead to provide you that maximum pressure, you need to take your showerhead apart and do 2 things. First, you bore through the ball joint, which is that section that screws into your showerarm and ends in a round ball shape at one end, until you reach the same inner diameter that is in your pipes (see above). Then second, you look inside the body of the shower head to see if there are any other parts that may restrict the water flow in any way and remove those obstacles. Once you have accomplished these two steps, you reassemble your shower head and screw it into your showerarm without using any rubber seal since it would not have any seating inside your modified balljoint to avoid it from being pushed deep by the water pressure and clogging your shower head. You must instead apply 2 to three turns of Teflon tape around the threads of your showerarm and then just hand tighten your modified shower head on to your showerarm. It's not an easy task and most everyone decides that it is easier to just buy the only modified shower head that is bored to the above specs and really works. I have tested the ShowerBlaster brand shower head sold by Products That Work! with all the rest being sold as "modified" or "high pressure" shower heads, and there is a huge difference. The Shower Blaster shower head is the only modified high pressure shower head that is modified to the specs mentioned above. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

ANS 2 - Doing any of the above is tedious, possibly dangerous and unnecessary AND ALSO voids your warranty !

Most showerheads sold in North America have quite good flow. If i was you, I'd take back this one that is not so good and exchange it for a better brand. I install showerheads of many major brands and all work well. Moen are my favorite but many other are good too.

What is the function of stops on a shower pressure control valve?

Depends on what type of STOP youer asking about. There are "stops" that are used to isolate the shower so it can be worked on with out shutting off all the fixtures /risers There are STOPS to prevent scalding by setting a high water limit Depends on what type of STOP youer asking about.

Why was the moldboard plow invented?

The moldboard plow was invented so that when the field was plowed, the soil would flip over so that the rich soil underneath was showing. This helped farmers plant more efficient crops and as a result there was a major population growth. They literally took a plow and put a board on the side, and it worked!


What will happen to the electric field of capacitor if temp of polarized dielectric is increased?

That will depend on the dielectric. There will be two main effects - any change in the permeativity of the dielectric, and thermal expansion which will increase the distance between the plates. There will also be an change (probably an increase), in leakage current through the dielectric. Any change is very likely to be small or insignificant - I have worked in a factory making capacitors and temperatures were very variable, not controlled, for measurements of capacitance.

How were the slaves treated during the Holocaust?

In the holocaust, the Jews were treated no more than a speck of lint on the carpet. They were abused, worked to death, and if they were ill- sent to death camps. There, they would be worked much much more, tested on for diseases and scientific things. Or, the guards would simply persuade them, saying they would get a shower, and it's actually a gas shower.
