Bedding & Bath · Dual Showerheads (Fixed + Handheld)
Do dual showerheads reduce water pressure when both heads run at once?
Reviewer consensus
Yes, somewhat. U.S. showerheads are capped at 2.5 GPM (and many newer models are 1.75 GPM), and that flow gets split between the two heads when the diverter is set to dual mode. Verified-purchase reviewers on Home Depot and Amazon note that high-pressure models like the Delta HydroRain and Hibbent compensate well, but cheaper combos can feel weak in simultaneous mode.
