How does changing the shower head increase water pressure? Shouldn’t the water be coming out at the same pressure throughout my house in spite of what shower head I have?
In: Engineering
You have a constant volume and pressure coming from your well or municipality.
Changing your showerhead changes the size of the exit hole. Doing that while still pushing the same volume and pressure will increase that pressure as the water tries to escape.
Think of it like exhaling. When you exhale out of a wide open mouth air really doesnt come out that “hard” now purse your lips and exhale the same and you’ll notice a dramatic increase in air moving out of your mouth.
