Good idea
but at home my wife and I have different schedules so the first shower is taken when the other one is always sleeping...
As I'm always late in the morning, I'm as quick as possible under the shower, but I found other ways to save water under the shower :
- get the shower head in your hand, this is quicker than to move all your body under a fixed shower head over you, noticeably to rinse yourself.
- don't open the tap at 100%. I'm at about 2/3 and I don't see efficiency difference when I rinse myself, even with the inline flow reduction system.
- don't let the water running too long to have your hot water, ie let water run when you gonna get your shower. If you change your mind then stop the water.
Last tip : do you really need a shower everyday ? </joking>
