I bought a nearly identical looking shower head at Ace Hardware in 2001. I remember it being Made in the USA, but the brand eludes me.
With an ex wife who loved long showers it cut our municipal water bill by 20 percent. The big savings came on the sewer side of the bill.
They billed you coming and going on the water and the sewer side was twice as expensive per gallon as the water coming in.

Might be a new design, but not a new idea.

I want one
Is there a way to use this water for the garden? I have been thinking about this and I would love to learn and retrofit my house to take some of this useable water from showers ect. and spread it on the garden. I do realize that there are some problems to sort out. However we live on a hill which allows us to use gravity to transport it to our garden. We also would have to control the easily reusable water from the rest. I'll keep looking but if anyone has some "helpful" thoughts please share.

My shower head of the last 5 years uses the venturi effect to produce a finer, but faster, and thus harder mist. It claims to use between 1/3 and 1/2 less water than a conventional design. I've always like long showers, and after a day or two getting use to the pin-prick streams, the old style shower heads just aren't as nice to shower under any more.
But I very much wish that my municipality would bill me for the water I actually use and the sewage I actually produce. It would cut my bills by 75%.

True.
The sewer part kills you if they bill you based on your water intake if you water a garden with municipal water.
