The water saver b.s. is such a pain. Johnny Appleseed planted apple trees; I
drill out shower heads!

The family cottage has a Gould impeller pump for drawing water from the lake for
kitchen and showers. Max pressure at the tank is 55 psi. Even at that
pressure, almost every facuet set I tried delivered a puny trickle. It's those
darned cartridges and tiny holes. They're made for city water pressure. Last
summer I saw a kitchen sink on the curb. It had a good ol' neoprene-washer-type
kitchen faucet set attached, and I grabbed that sucker. Lapped the seats just a
tad (hard water here), installed new neoprene, and now we gots *lots* of water
volume!
